EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — Jabari Walker scored 24 points and grabbed 11 rebounds and Colorado overcame an early deficit to beat Oregon 82-78 on Tuesday night, ending the Ducks' six-game winning streak.
It was the first time in the last 13 games between the two that the road team won. Colorado hadn't won in Eugene since Feb. 7, 2013 when it beat the then 19th-ranked Ducks 48-47.
Walker's layup with 8:30 left gave Colorado (13-6, 5-4 Pac-12) its first lead of the game at 64-63 and it never trailed again. Evan Battey made 1 of 2 free throws with four seconds left to seal it.
