Oregon Ducks Finish Historic Regular Season vs Oregon State

Oregon State has won one of their last five games. Oregon has won five, including taking down Cal and Stanford on the road before coming to Corvallis on Saturday.

Confidence is a strength for the Oregon Ducks this season. While there have been a few stumbling blocks, a 17 game winning streak, and a more recent five-game streak following a loss at UCLA should not go unnoticed. A win over Oregon State gives the Ducks the outright Pac-12 Regular season title and the top seed in the Pac-12 Tournament starting next week.
Dillon Brooks leads the way for Oregon. He is putting up 15 points per game and closer to 20 points per contest in Pac-12 play. The Ducks are averaging over 80 points per game. Stephen Thompson Jr. leads Oregon State with 16 points per game. Defensively for the Beavers, Drew Eubanks leads in rebounds and blocked shots.
The Oregon Ducks have a lot of weapons aside from Brooks. Chris Boucher can hit shots on Offense and block them on Defense. Jordan Bell is in the discussion for Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year. Momentum is not on the side of Oregon State.
