And they're from the vaunted "Conference of Champions" so we don't stand a chance of beating them.

Boucher is everything we'd hoped for from Brimah and then some.

Brooks can get his shot whenever he wants. He is good. Volume scorer tho.

Bell is an animal on the glass and anywhere around the rim. Very athletic. Once a UConn recruit.

Their backcourt has ball handlers and scorers. Dorsey, Pritchard, Ennis, and Benson are a good mix of young and old. Kind of trigger happy, but we need to limit their second chances.

They haven't been shooting well this year, but last year shows they can fill it up. We need to rebound and play good defense to keep this under 10.

Will be interesting how many minutes Brooks plays today. His first game of the season was Monday, and they talked about keeping him to about 15 minutes a night. He played 25 minutes yesterday in OT, and 13 the first day. Could be a factor today.

Oregon looked terrible yesterday. They didn't score a field goal for something like the last 9 minutes of regulation. Brooks is good but he's still adjusting post injury.

If the Ducks play like they did yesterday UConn has a chance.

We really just need to play better perimeter defense, and protect the ball. If we can prevent them from hitting a bunch of 3s I like our chances.

Oregon looks like crap right now.. Kenpom still likes them though. This will probably be the time where Oregon is most vulnerable all year

Also lucky for us. Their coach hasnt been playing Benson as much this year. PG who doesnt turn it over at all and can shoot the 3. For whatever reason hes playing Ennis and hes stunk so far
