Strengths/Concerns
-
Confidence - The Ducks have posted back to back
20 win seasons, a Pac-10 championship, a Pac-10 Tournament title and
a pair of NCAA Tournament appearances the past two years.
-
The long ball - Shooting a conference best .433
from downtown (second in the nation) while hitting 91 of 210 attempts,
on average hit 10.11 three point shots again, good for third in the
nation.
-
Offensive firepower - Oregon is third
the Pac-10 in scoring offense with 78.4 ppg, third in scoring margin
with a +6.1 mark, first in field goal percentage
(.491), and first in three point field goal percentage (.424).
-
Sharing the rock - Second in the conference with
17.19 apg...have 165 assists on 248 baskets for an assist rate
of 67 percent.
Concerns
- The big fellas - Although they have size and finesse,
Oregon lacks consistent tough play in the paint as they are ninth in the conference in blocked shots (2.12 bpg), ninth in
rebounding offense (33.6) and last offensive rebounds (9.44 orpg).
- Replacing Ridnour - The Ducks will have to be patient as
Aaron Brooks and Brandon Lincoln learn running the UO offense.
- Active hands - Last in the conference in steals averaging 4.99 a
game

Last Time the Ducks Played Oregon State...
in Corvallis...
David Lucas scored 24 points and Oregon State went on a 12-0 game-ending run
to beat Oregon 90-81 Saturday night in the 319th meeting between the two teams.
The Beavers trailed 81-78 but Lucas' jumper narrowed it and Jim Hanchett's layup
with 1:14 left put the Beavers (7-6, 1-2 Pacific-10) ahead for good...Beavers
defeat Ducks in Civil War thriller
in Eugene...
Early in the second half against Oregon State, Oregon's two Lukes exchanged
a few words as they sprinted down court. "We said, `Let's get this thing
going. Let's keep our team in this one'," Luke Jackson said. After their
talk, Jackson and guard Luke Ridnour led a second-half surge that gave No. 22
Oregon a 79-68 victory Saturday. Recap

News from the Latest Duck Game
Chris Hernandez
scored all of his 22 points in the second half and led No. 2 Stanford back from
a 19-point deficit to beat Oregon 83-80 Saturday. Stanford (18-0, 9-0
Pac-10) remains one of just two undefeated Division I teams in the nation. The
other, No. 3 St. Joseph's, beat Temple 83-71 earlier Saturday.
It was Oregon's first loss at McArthur Court this season and third home loss in
39 games...Ducks
give unbeaten Stanford a scare
