On Senior Night Sunday, two Duck starters bid farewell to Matthew Knight Arena, though they hope they won’t be finished with Oregon basketball for a few weeks yet. Neither is over 200 lbs or taller than a modest 6’4″ but both leave giant-sized footprints on Kilkenny Floor. Point Guard Joseph Young is one of only two significant contributors left over from last …
Last night, the Ducks annihilated the Buffaloes with an emphatic 73-60 victory at Matthew Knight Arena. Oregon, which recently had a four-game win streak snapped by UCLA, finished on a powerful note by not allowing Colorado to edge its way back into the game in the second half. With the NCAA Tournament coming closer and closer each day, it was pivotal for …
Don’t look now, but the Oregon Ducks men’s basketball team is punching its ticket to March Madness and the NCAA Tournament, according to Joseph Young. “We’re going to the (NCAA) tournament. I just want to get that out right now,” Young said after practice yesterday. “We’re going to the tournament. We’ve just got to take one game at a time, …
It’s cliche to say “you never know who is going to win in college sports.” But it’s true, you really never know who is going to win. The Pac-12 this season has not been linear — in fact, I would compare it to a roller coaster with flips and corkscrews. Coming into the season, many fans had already played out the different scenarios …
The 2014-2015 college basketball season has been full of excitement, upsets and triumphs — and the Ducks have been one of the most interesting teams in the Pac-12, but it’s hard to really gauge who they are and how they will perform on any given night. Are they young? Yes. Are they inexperienced? Of course. Will they make you scratch …
The Oregon Ducks men’s basketball team matched up against Steve Alford and the UCLA Bruins at Pauley Pavilion on Saturday afternoon, and came up short in a 72-63 loss. With only about two weeks remaining in the regular season, both the Ducks and the Bruins came into Saturday’s game on a hot streak. After getting off to a slow start …
Last night the Oregon Ducks walked away with a W after beating USC 80-75. Now the Ducks are preparing to face UCLA this Saturday in California. This season hasn’t been bad for Oregon; their offense is full of ridiculous amounts of talent and although their defense needs some improvement, they are a well-rounded team. There are only six games left …
Speechless. That’s the best word that describes how most of us feel about the Ducks’ success this season. Prior to the season beginning, Oregon had only four players on its roster, and they were all guys returning from the year before. Two of them, Joseph Young and Elgin Cook, were legitimate threats, and the other two ( Jalil Abdul-Bassit and Theo Friedman) …
Entering the final stretch of the regular season, the Oregon men’s basketball team needs tough wins on the road. The Ducks survived a late rally by USC Wednesday night, defeating the Trojans 80-75 at the Galen Center in Los Angeles.

The Oregon Ducks men’s basketball team will match up against Andy Enfield and the USC Trojans tonight at the Galen Center in Los Angeles, California. The Ducks (17-7, 7-4 Pac-12) have enjoyed a successful, yet surprising season, and they’re currently in third place in the Pac-12 standings. It’s no secret that Oregon wasn’t expected to do much before the year started, but the men in green …
The Oregon men’s basketball team is currently in the middle of what can only be described as a tumultuous season. After a convincing 95-72 win over Washington State at Matthew Knight Arena, the Ducks are now 17-7 (7-4 Pac-12) and are sitting on the proverbial “bubble” for a bid to the NCAA Tournament. Oregon continues to move forward despite some shaky performances …
The Oregon Ducks men’s basketball team returned to Matthew Knight Arena to square off against the Washington Huskies on Wednesday evening, and came out victorious with a thrilling 78-74 triumph. The Huskies (14-8, 3-7 Pac-12) entered the night on a slump, losing three of their previous four games. On the other hand, the Ducks (16-7, 6-4 Pac-12) came in on a …
