Oregon will likely still try to win since they want to get their NCAA Tournament seed as high as possible. Plus they don't want to lose to their rival.

Similar to last year's football season, a game with the Huskies that didn't affect the standings. But the Ducks are sitting between 5-7 in NCAA Bracketology. A win against the Huskies is 7 in a row, keep going and beat Indiana, 5 is looking good. Lose to Washington, maybe then to Indiana and it's 2 L's in a row, the Ducks could end up in the 8-9 for the NCAA. Never good to do anything but plan to beat Washington.

always play to win or don;t play the game

Right. Getting a top 4 seed in ncaa tournament is in play. Need to win the next two games if we want any shot at that.

Outrebounding them. Out shooting them across the board. Less Fouls. More blocks. Unwatchable AGAIN.

Wow Bittle has outscored the rest of his teammates combined in the first half. His stat line would be fantastic for a whole game. Hoping he gets a little help in the second half.

Looks like everyone but Bittle paid too much attention to the fact that this game doesn’t affect their seeding in the B1G tourney.

Win or lose Altman is gonna have this team shooting extra free throws next practice!

Never a bad day whenever Oregon beats the Huskies. A little too sloppy and close for comfort but they closed that game like you expect an NCAA Tournament team should against a team with nothing to play for.

If Washington wasn't so bad, they'd have won. For most of the game, Bittle had more points than the other Ducks combined. Another sleepwalk game for Shelstad. Evans missed the FT's at the end of regulation but finished with an 11-11 double- double. The game against Indiana is huge for NCAA seeding.

Yup. Another no-show game for Shelstad. Dana better chew his *ss. To have ZERO effect in games down the stretch can’t happen. Oregon goes nowhere in the BIG tourney, or Madness if we can only rely on Bittle. It is nice Kwame decided to show up late in the season, and Barthelemy has hit big buckets. Need Shelstad to be money.
