The Oregon Ducks Basketball team will have games on Thursday, Friday, and Sunday during PK80 being played in Portland, Oregon. Willie Taggart and the Ducks were slated for a Friday start to end the season at Autzen Stadium, but that date is now changed to Saturday, November 25th. The Oregon Women’s Basketball team is also helping to celebrate Phil Knight’s 80th hosting Oklahoma, UConn and Michigan State that weekend.
The Oregon Women’s Basketball team has National Eyes now that they have made the Elite Eight for the first time ever. According to GoDucks.com, there could be a Football/Women’s Basketball doubleheader set for that Saturday if the timing is right.
Right now all we know are the dates for PK80. Scheduled matchups and game times will be announced later. Of course, a matchup that would interest Oregon fans could possibly be a Final Four rematch with North Carolina in Portland.
