Well we beat Ohio State in football.

It’s feeling like they settled into a functional hierarchy last game and it’s carrying over. Young and Richardson are your shot creators and everyone else can play off of them. Dante gets a few set plays and everyone else has some space to operate off of Richardson and Young.

Altman rolling the dice in the first half, pulling his scorers up 13 and riding the strongest defensive unit to keep Young and Richardson out of foul trouble.

Richardson and Williams with threes to close out the half, Ducks up 45-29. Man, what a statement an L.A. sweep would make. Here's to a strong second half.

Very strong first half. Unsustainably hot from outside, but they’re scoring in the paint and playing lock down d, showing they absolutely belong on this court. Amazing how the light just came on overnight.

This weekend is such classic Altman. Only I never would’ve predicted it this time.

The hot shooting from Thursday has carried over to tonight as well. Team looks like it's finally showing off the talent that made many think they were a preseason top-15 team. Hopefully they can keep it up in the 2nd half.

Wondering if Guerrier had mostly played closer to the hoop before coming to Oregon. He always seems to come up a step short when he’s driving. Just doesn’t seem comfortable in his current role.

Dante’s footwork and burst close to the hoop are fantastic. Looks wonky away from the hoop, but he’s clearly working very hard on his game and it’s paying off big time.

I can’t tell who the bigger USC fans are, the announcers or the refs.
