Oregon Discussion/Analysis/Predictions

[Machina]

Arizona is currently a 5 point favorite against Oregon.

Prediction U of A 73 Oregon 67

Think Arizona is better across the board but have to put it all together on the road.

U of A has not won at Oregon since 2010

Shut up

[Lute4God]

Tonight on Pac12 networks at 730 pacific the Oregon schools game is being rebroadcast.

I have seen OSU look very solid on both end in the OOC season. Young is a real beast as is Payton. Going to be a fun week!

Didn't always play them. Beat them on Dec. 30, 2010, which was the 2011 season. Beat them the previous season. Or, beat them twice in 2010 at their place. Either way, not much of a stat.

Blanket Young Joe Young. Make others beat us.

[PHXCATS]

It was the 2010-2011 season. A little misleading since the game was in December.

The Cats team from Sunday wins big. The Cats team we have seen the other true road games this season make us sweat!

We typed at the same time. And, hey there.

As for my last post ever again in a Machina thread, I just want to say that he can eat a juicy, wet pile of shit, puke it up and then eat it again.

We had better. 10 for 14 and 5-6 three pointers against a team that was only giving up 38 percent from the floor.

this thread just made me laugh out loud twice.

I don't particularly feel good about it but it happened none-the-less. It almost reads like an SNL skit.

Post, post, post, really funny yet mean post, post, post, post, really funny yet mean post, post. It's like the thread with two heads.

[Machina]

If RHJ and SJ can shut down Young, which they are able to with their size and athleticism and talent, then Oregon should probably struggle.

It's so easy to do both.

Line has moved to -6 Arizona

[Lute4God]

The Wildcats (13-1, 1-0) had their 39-game non-conference winning streak snapped in a 71-67 loss at UNLV on Dec. 23. They had 12 days to think about their mistakes before opening conference play with a 73-49 rout of Arizona State on Sunday.

The Star now wants $$ for viewing its online content. You can get a few clicks for free each month I think:

Oregon overview: Leave it to Dana Altman to figure this one out. Already the top chemistry builder in the Pac-12, having built a trio of better-than-expected teams out of a mish-mash of all types of transfers and freshmen since arriving in Oregon in 2011-12, Altman had a roster of just eight players after rape allegations led to the dismissal of three players. Two others, including five-star guard JaQuan Lyle, were not cleared to play, making matters even more dire. But Altman scrambled to build a new roster around mega-shooter Joseph Young. Among others, he pulled in well-regarded juco transfers Dwayne Benjamin and Michael Chandler, while convincing Findlay Prep forward Dillon Brooks to commit in August – and reclassify so he could play right away instead of next season. This week, he even added Israel national team member Roman Sorkin from Belarus. Brooks is the second-leading freshman scorer in the Pac-12. Meanwhile, Tempe’s Casey Benson went to work right away as a freshman, taking over the point guard of what continues to be a fast-paced, aggressive team. The Ducks now have a full roster with players from 10 states and three countries. While they aren’t big, they compensate by playing a matchup zone defense more often. They'll aim to trap and force turnovers, too.

I am excited to see how our first road game in the Pac12 goes. I am expecting some glitches and a tight game for most of the way.

About Hating: Sometimes guys would rather do that than follow the team. Its the internet. I get it. I always have higher expectations for our fan bases here for some reason.

[Machina]

Looking back at the box score last year, the three point fg both ways is what got Arizona in trouble.

Oregon shot over 50% from behind the arc and Arizona shot less than 20%.

Think Oregon will probably try to shoot a lot of 3 balls again tonight.

How the mighty have fallen. Believe he was a UA target at one time.

Looking for his salad days at Waldorf.

So how did that Duck game turn out? 80-62, Cats.
