After Oregon was upset by a talented Oklahoma team in 2016, Duck fans didn’t hang their heads for too long. This was a team that ended the regular season hot and captured its first number one seed in school history. Things were looking up for an Oregon team that had most of its key players returning.
Almost a year later, the Ducks are just two wins away from glory.
Oregon defeated the Kansas Jayhawks 74-60 just 40 miles away from Allen Fieldhouse, a place that they had a 54-game winning streak until a loss earlier in the year.
