The Oregon Ducks have not lost a game in over two weeks. It was on the road, at Colorado and now the Buffs visit Eugene. Oregon will look to get back at Colorado and earn a split on the season series. The Buffs have won three of their last four games following a loss against Washington. Oregon has rolled off four straight following the loss in Boulder and sits at 7-2 atop the Pac-12 Standings as the second half of the Conference schedule begins.

Dana Altman has the Oregon Ducks on a roll despite the loss of Dylan Ennis, who played in just two games entering the Pac-12 season. He had foot surgery on Monday and is highly considering trying to play for Oregon next season and using a medical redshirt for this year. Oregon has used several players to get the job done this season, led by Dillon Brooks who leads in points per game with over 16. Chris Boucher is hitting 55 percent of his shots form the floor.
