At 5-0 and alone at the top of the Pac-12 conference, Oregon Men’s Basketball had some wiggle room heading into their duo of games in the mountains.

Just when the Ducks were getting healthier and sitting pretty, they received a harsh dose of reality: the season is far from over, and there is still work to do.
