It can sometimes be a comforting phrase, although to hear it at all you’re usually in a far-from-ideal circumstance.
“Things can only get better from here.”
For Oregon Men’s Basketball, it appears they’ve already reached that point in the first week of January.
The Ducks lost to Colorado 68-41 in Boulder Thursday night, a place they have managed only one victory in Dana Altman’s entire Oregon tenure. At this point one begins to wonder if playing there elicits some sort of subconscious response from the Ducks, but on to the matter at hand.
Seven was an unlucky number for the Ducks as they shot 27% from the field, 7% from 3-point range, and 57% from the free throw line.
