Gotta win these games. Very little margin for error when it comes to home games, and road games against lesser teams.

Let's go!!!!!!!

[northbeachsf]

Good start again.

It's amazing how Oregon all of sudden flipped a switch with the Utah win and have been unstoppable ever since.

Ducks are playing really well and I should be enjoying this, but as a basketball fan, it still pains me to watch PAC-12 games with these awful officials. I swear they just blow their whistle without watching and just assume there was a foul somewhere on the shooter and pick the closest defender, especially in the second half. Their desire to take over games and call ticky tack fouls excessively really hurts the conference’s chances of having a team in the Final Four, even with last year’s crazy run for UCLA and the Beavs. In addition it can’t help viewership, these games usually have no flow cause the officials can’t take the whistle out of their mouths and that makes it harder to watch. I was hoping with the new commissioner we’d have better officials but so far it appears it’ll just be the same.

While on the topic of the awful PAC-12 officials, despite their crappy officiating they somehow never seem to call reaching in our hand checking fouls on defenders of the ball handler. I just can’t figure out why and how PAC-12 officials are so bad.

OK I’m done with officials for now.

Oregon got a good lead and seemed to get a little too relaxed, Altman noticed and started coaching with a little extra fire.

Guerrier has been great so far tonight.

[greenyellow]

As much Oregon dominated at times in the first half, they've only got a 5 point lead heading to halftime. Oregon really needs someone else to get going and to find a way to shut down CU's Walker and da Silva without allowing Battey and Barthelemy to get easy buckets.

[northbeachsf]

Not a great end of the half. Hopefully Altman gets them fired up again at half.

[greenyellow]

I don't think he'll be happy with the execution at the end and how poorly the bench has played so far.

[OregonFan4Life]

Dante seems out of it tonight.

[pudgejeff]

Dante seems out of it tonight.

It's cause they let Battey bang him around.

[OregonFan4Life]

These refs are doing everything they can to help Colorado win. Almost feels as if they have money on the game.

Gotta hand it to Boyle, he knows more than any other PAC-12 coach aside from Hurley how to take advantage of the highly incompetent PAC-12 officials.

[greenyellow]

Oregon's defense needs to wake up.
