EUGENE, Ore. — The Oregon men's basketball team only trailed for 3 minutes Thursday night in a 68-63 win over No. 12 UCLA at Matthew Knight Arena that gave the Ducks a season sweep of the Bruins.
With their NCAA Tournament hopes needing a big boost, the Ducks provided it by holding UCLA to .368 shooting and outrebounding the Bruins, 44-33. Oregon matched its season high with 19 turnovers but otherwise executed well, after entering the night on the outside of the tournament bubble looking in.
"I thought the effort was really good," UO coach Dana Altman said.
