Kinda strange about the Oregon MBB that...

Post by Merganzer »

The all time single game scoring record is still 43, set on my birthday, back in 1977, by Greg Ballard, in an Opening Round NIT win over Oral Roberts, 90-89. They lost the next game to St. Bonaventure, 76-73. That was without the 3 point line; not a concern for GB, but the players with the 3 opportunity have still not surpassed 43. In his miraculous game against Colorado, Luke Jackson scored 40, 5-11 on 3's.
There also doesn't appear to be a back to back 30 points for a Duck. The closest I could find was Joe Young, in 2014-15. He did average 30.5 in a two game span against UW & WSU, but it was 32 against the mutts and 29 against the Cougs.

If it wasn't for injury I could've seen Bol breaking that record.

I swear Jackson had more than 40 in that Colorado game. I wanna see he had the final 22 for the Ducks. Didn’t he have a 30 point game before or after that in the NIT as well?

Jackson, who had 40 points overall, including 29 straight at one point, scored 14 in the last 4:47 of regulation, tying the game 61-61 on a 3-pointer with 20 seconds left. He followed that with 14 more in overtime, 11 from the free throw line.

The game against Colorado was the first in the NIT, Jackson scored 14 in the next two, against George Mason & Notre Dame. He had 17 in the loss to Michigan. Jackson did score 42; in a 100-87 home loss to Arizona earlier that season.
