The last time Oregon played Gonzaga was Dec. 29, 1999 in the Outrigger Hotel Rainbow Classic, Oregon 70 Gonzaga 64.

UO has a 9 game win streak vs the zags. We need to keep that streak alive.

Opens: Gonzaga -3

Hoping for a win today! This could be Altman’s best team if they stay healthy. Have a really good combination of guards and big men who can run.

In this second game in 2 nights, the Ducks come in as the healthier team.

Senior forward Killian Tillie watched from the bench. He’s experiencing soreness in his surgically repaired knee. It wasn’t immediately known if he’ll play Thursday. Tillie played in Gonzaga’s last two games and averaged 14 points.

Three Zags departed with injuries during the contest, beginning with freshman forward Anton Watson leaving with a right foot or ankle injury in the opening minute. Watson, who returned to the starting lineup in place of Tillie, landed on the foot of a Golden Eagles player after attempting a shot in the lane.

Senior guard Admon Gilder scored eight points in the first half, but he was limping noticeably at the outset of the second half. He played less than one minute and headed for the bench after committing a foul. He’s dealing with a sore right knee.

With just under 7 minutes remaining, Woolridge came up hobbling after driving into the lane. He stayed in for another possession on defense and offense before limping to the sideline, favoring his right leg.

There was no word on the status of Watson, Gilder and Woolridge for Thursday’s game.

Dillon Brooks, Chris Boucher, Jordan Bell and Tyler Dorsey (the '17 team) might disagree.

We get Dickie V for this one. He's looking forward to seeing a showcase for two of the best coaches; and the Seton Hall alum told the SH team & fans to stop with the, "We were robbed & Oregon stole that game" talk. He said, that when you have a 19 point lead midway through the 2nd half and you lose, you weren't robbed.

It wasn't 19 midway though. They made a run the first 3 min of the second half, then we played catch up the rest of the way
But I believe at the midway point, it was down to 10 points. Outside of those 3 min, we outplayed them the final 16-17 min.

Sure looking like the loser of our game gets UNC. Michigan is running em out of the gym.

Oregon plays Michigan on Dec. 14th so if the Ducks win today, they'll get at least 2 opportunities to play them.

Gonzaga looks like a way better team.

Oregon just needs to find Gonzaga's shooters as almost every three they've hit has been uncontested. That was the same case against Seton Hall but once Oregon finally locked down the perimeter, the shots stopped falling. They also need to find a way to get Mathis and/or Duarte going since Pritchard can't be the only one scoring.

Two straight days where Oregon faces an opponent that can’t miss a freakin three.

Has Juiston made a three this season? Altman needs to pull the plug on him shooting threes.
