EUGENE, Ore. — Stingy defense and balance scoring set the table for Oregon men's basketball to outscore Tennessee State by 17 points in the second half as the Ducks powered to a 92-67 victory on Friday night at Matthew Knight Arena.
After entering halftime with a 48-40 advantage that felt narrower than it appeared, the Ducks (3-0) found the spark they needed on a 3-pointer from Jadrian Tracey at the 17:48 mark that began a 20-2 scoring run for UO. Oregon forced the Tigers (3-1) into five turnovers during the six-minute stretch and never let the visitors within 19 for the remainder of the game.
