Oregon's over 60% from 3 currently, doubt that's sustainable

Our passing has been shaky. Oregon has deflected a lot of balls.

Just saw where this is a Higgins game. Yup, that explains it. Uphill battle all night.

Ducks are playing with a purpose. They really want to beat #1.

We have a huge bullseye on our backs & will have it for every game. Get used to it. It will be worse when Big 12 play begins. The trip to Ames for New Years will be killer.

Oregon 11-17 from field.

Oregon averages almost 20 fouls a game. Tonight - 1 thru 13 minutes. Interesting.

We're playing like crap, but the ducks are getting a Home Court job which you would expect with Higgins on the floor

Fuggin Higgins. I could have told you we'd be in for a fight if I knew his dumbass would be calling this one.

Higgins attended Kearney State College, an NAIA school in Nebraska, but he returned to his hometown after graduation and never left. He founded and currently operates two fulltime businessesWeatherguard, Inc., which is a roofing, siding and gutter company; and a real estate company that manages residential properties.

Ducks 5/9 from three
Bear 6/10

Harmon was 2-8 last year against us because Mitchell had the speed to cut him off on those drives to the basket. Unfortunately, Cryer doesn't and so Harmon is 4-5 tonight so far.

We've done a lot of the weave. But we haven't been able to get the ball into the paint with a pass. Somewhat with the dribble

We are running no offense inside out. That is the problem!. Got to go inside. D needs to clamp down.
