After the frustrating and downright embarrassing result from Thursday night’s game against the Colorado Buffaloes, the Oregon Ducks responded well on Saturday, coming out with some fire and passion in a key 70-60 road win over the Utah Utes.
With the win, the Ducks kept their NCAA tournament hopes alive for the time being.
The Ducks stormed out in the first half and used some big minutes from not only N’Faly Dante and Kel’el Ware, but also Jermaine Couisnard, who was more impactful on the game than his stat line would show.
It was a much-needed win and a solid foundation point for what can hopefully be a turnaround in the Oregon season.
