Wolverines, Ducks to Clash Saturday in Eugene
ANN ARBOR, Mich. — The fourth-ranked University of Michigan men's basketball team (15-1, 5-1 Big Ten) will close out its West Coast swing heading to Eugene, Ore., on Saturday (Jan. 17) to take on Oregon (8-9, 1-5 Big Ten) at the Matthew Knight Arena. Tipoff with the Ducks will be at 1 p.m. PT with a national broadcast on NBC Sports with John Fanta, Nick Bahe and Elise Woodward on the call.
• Michigan opened its two-game Pacific Northwest swing in Seattle against Washington (Jan. 14). In its first game in Seattle in 32 years, U-M grabbed the lead after the first media timeout and never let go, cruising to an 82–72 win. The Wolverines now head to Eugene to face Oregon (Jan. 17).

No. 4 Michigan at Oregon College Basketball Preview
Michigan Basketball needs to go 2-for-2 in the Pacific Northwest, wrapping up the West Coast road trip with Oregon this afternoon:
The college basketball season is a long journey that involves a variety of obstacles to overcome, some self-inflicted, some unforeseeable. The Michigan Wolverines did enough Wednesday night (Thursday morning) against Washington to move on from that initial loss and are in position to return home from the West Coast unscathed.
That does require getting a win over the Oregon Ducks on Saturday. Oregon has been terrible this season, starting 1-5 in conference play and nearly the bottom of the Kenpom top 100. Call it a failed attempt to ford the river (which sounds much more pleasant than suffering from dysentery), but either way, it has not been pretty this season. Michigan is the heavy favorite and needs to take care of business this weekend.
