Think Oregon has this in the bag but just need to make FTs.

Whatever fire Altman lit under their butts worked wonders

It certainly helped that Utah has Oregon in their heads, But a lot of credit to the Ducks for not getting down, by being down at halftime. They have an identity now, and they kept at it, and pull away at the end.

Absolutely, they've finally figured out who they are by committing to defending the s*** out of teams. I love it.

Also I was wrong about it ending up close. Pedal to the metal down the stretch.

Ducks win 66-54 and advance to meet ASU in the semifinals. Another game where Oregon's defense held an opponent to under 62 points, their sixth in a row.

King, Pritchard, and Okoro were huge tonight.

Coach Altman gets to 21 wins for the ninth time in a row (out of nine). Amazing accomplishment.

Still don't see any mention of the Ducks among the 'bubble teams' other than in Oregon-based media. Big game tomorrow vs. a team that IS mentioned a lot. Hopefully there is something left in the tank. King, and especially Pritchard played a lot of minutes tonight.

Okoro was a monster. It was insane how many shots of Utah's were contested or altered.

Okoro with 6 blocks in 17 minutes!

I believe that's efficient.
