MBB: Tournament hopes likely over after blowout loss

It doesn’t seem like that long ago that Oregon was 5-0 in conference and was sitting at the Top of the Pac-12.

But it’s not how you start, it’s how you finish.

Ever since a fateful trip to the mountain schools the Ducks have lacked any sort of consistency and Saturday answered the question pretty profoundly as to whether they can hang with the big boys.

Arizona dismantled Oregon 103-83 and solidified their spot as an upper seed in the upcoming NCAA Tournament, an event that now seems like it will be missed by the Ducks for the third consecutive season, something that has never before happened in Dana Altman’s tenure in Eugene.
