What to Know

The #14 Oregon Ducks haven't won a game against the Oregon State Beavers since Jan. 27 of 2018, but they'll be looking to end the drought Thursday. Oregon and Oregon State will face off in a Pac-12 battle at 11 p.m. ET at Matthew Knight Arena. Coming off of a win even when the odds were against them, the Ducks have to be feeling especially confident now that the spread is in their favor.

Oregon escaped with a win against the Arizona Wildcats by the margin of a single free throw, 73-72. Guard Payton Pritchard took over for Oregon, finishing with 38 points (a whopping 52% of their total) in addition to six rebounds.

Speaking of close games: Oregon State was just a bucket short of a victory on Saturday and fell 74-73 to the Arizona State Sun Devils. Oregon State's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of guard Ethan Thompson, who had 20 points and seven assists, and forward Tres Tinkle, who had 25 points along with nine boards.

Oregon's win brought them up to 21-7 while Oregon State's defeat pulled them down to 15-12. Two stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Oregon ranks 18th in college basketball when it comes to steals per game, with eight on average. But the Beavers come into the matchup boasting the 15th fewest steals given up per game in college basketball at 5.7. Ball control might end up being a major factor in this one.
