(Bettina Hansen / The Seattle Times)LAS VEGAS — The clock kept ticking, and Washington kept bricking.
Eighteen minutes left in the game? The Huskies had 28 points. Seventeen left? Still 28. Same with 16 to go, and then 15 and eventually 11. Finally, at the 10:27 mark in the second half, big man Noah Dickerson put a layup through the net to end UW’s eight-minute scoring drought, but not before Oregon had built a 16-point lead.
