Oregon at #12, which is probably fair.

ESPN' ratings seem much more reasonable as a whole. Oregon is also a 12

So they have UA and UCLA at 3 and 4, and UO at 12? And that seems fair to people? No, we might get upset by Michigan, although I think we win, but even without Boucher we could beat both UA and UCLA at anytime.

I don't think the ducks would win every time, but I do think they could take both Arizona and UCLA on a neutral court at least 5 out of 10. Has something significant changed since the Pac 12 tourney, other than Dorsey suddenly asserting himself? I think Oregon is as good as either of those teams. Anyway, we'll see this week.

I think we're better than that, but if you look at us post-Boucher we haven't really proved that much. We played Arizona tough but lost, we beat a weak Iona team easily, then we squeaked by a good Rhode Island team. I can understand there being some doubters.

If you look at UO away from matt all year, our games have been a lot like the RI game.

Agree with you and buck. With Boucher, we are a top 8 team nationally. Without Boucher and how we've looked on the road (or neurtal court), we are a late teens top 25 team.

It's just the truth. The nice thing about Oregon is the have the ability to beat anyone. Our talent is just as good as almost any other school, we just need to put it altogether (now).
