CardinalSportsReport – Preview: Stanford MBB to square off with Oregon on The Farm
On Thursday at 8:00 PM PT on ESPN2, Stanford menâs basketball will welcome the Oregon Ducks to The Farm. Stanford comes in at 12-13 overall and 7-8 in the Pac-12 while Oregon comes in at 17-8 overall and 9-5 in the Pac-12.
Last time out: On Saturday, Stanford fell to Washington State by a final score of 72-59 in Pullman. Stanford led with around 10 minutes left, but then faded away.

On Oregon: The Ducks are having a solid season, hoping to get in position for an NCAA tournament berth. They have a bit of work to do, but theyâre still in the mix. Theyâve been really strong at home, going 11-2 while struggling away from Eugene with a 6-6 record in road/neutral site games combined. Most recently, they defeated Oregon State on the road by a final score of 60-58.
The Ducks have gotten a big boon from the return of senior big man NâFaly Dante, who is averaging 15.3 points and 8.2 rebounds per game. Senior guard Jermaine Couisnard (14.8 points & 4.5 rebounds) and freshman guard Jackson Shelstad (12.1 points) are also scoring in double figures, doing a nice job of taking the pressure off Dante.
As a team, the Ducks average 76.3 points per game on 45.6% shooting from the field, 35.6% shooting from 3-point range, and 70.5% shooting from the foul line. They average 34.7 rebounds, 14.0 assists, 7.2 steals, 3.6 blocks, and 10.6 turnovers per game. They also average a +1.0 rebound margin and a +2.0 turnover margin per game. Their opponents average 71.9 points per game on 45.1% shooting from the field, 34.0% shooting from 3-point range, and 71.8% shooting from the foul line.
Keys to the game: For Stanford, the first thing they need to do is contain Dante. Heâs one of the best big men in the league and is very physical inside. This is a game where Stanford big man Maxime Raynaud needs to play big inside, get rebounds, and not get pushed around. A good dose of James Keefe would be nice for Stanford as heâs the most physical post player on the team.
The second thing Stanford needs to do is avoid offensive lulls. What often does Stanford in is having a scoring drought of 4+ minutes. If Stanford can avoid those and stay in a good offensive flow all night, that will help them a ton. In short, this just means they need to make sure they get a bucket when they really need to get a bucket.
Finally, Stanford needs to do make sure they defend the perimeter. Teams too often are able to make threes on Stanford in key moments. They need to make sure they defend the perimeter well and donât give away easy looks. If they play tight defense on the perimeter, theyâll have a good chance to win this game.
Prediction: This is a toss-up game. I could see this one going either way. Iâll give the edge to Stanford because they are at home and I also think theyâll be extra fired up since they lost their last two games. Theyâre really not going to want to drop this one. Stanford 80 Oregon 78 is how I see this one ending.

Entering the 2026 college football season, the Oregon Ducks are looking to not only win their first national championship in program history but also their second Big Ten title in the last three seasons.
When the Ducks joined the Big Ten in 2024, they kicked off their inaugural season in the conference in style, finishing the regular season undefeated at 13-0. This regular season was concluded with a thrilling 45-37 win over the Penn State Nittany Lions in the Big Ten championship game.

The Ohio State Buckeyes, however, got revenge for their loss to the Ducks at Autzen Stadium earlier in the regular season, beating Oregon 41-21 in the CFP Quarterfinal at the Rose Bowl. Entering the 2026 season, here’s a look at the Ducks’ chances of winning the Big Ten for the second time.
Oregon Ducks Big Ten Title Odds: Who’s The Biggest Threat?
According to the latest betting odds by FanDuel Sportsbook, the Ducks have +270 odds to win the Big Ten championship this season. The one team ahead of them is the Ohio State Buckeyes at +190, who, believe it or not, are in search of their first Big Ten title since 2020. The Buckeyes were upset by the Indiana Hoosiers 13-10 in the Big Ten championship last season.
Among the top teams in the Big Ten next season, Ohio State poses the biggest threat to the Ducks’ chances of not only winning a conference title but also the national championship. The Buckeyes and Ducks will face off in what could be the game of the year in Columbus on Nov. 7.
As exciting as this matchup will be for college football fans, it likely won’t be the only one between the Buckeyes and Ducks. Regardless of which team wins the Nov. 7 showdown in Columbus, the Buckeyes and Ducks could match up again in the Big Ten title game and in the CFP.
Other Teams That Pose a Threat to Oregon
While the Buckeyes are the main threat to the Ducks’ Big Ten title aspirations, other teams will be worth watching. One of those teams is the defending national champions, the Indiana Hoosiers.
Despite the key losses this offseason, which include Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Fernando Mendoza, coach Curt Cignetti’s Hoosiers restocked talent with the addition of TCU Horned Frogs transfer quarterback Josh Hoover and Michigan State Spartans wide receiver Nick Marsh.
The only two losses that the Ducks suffered last season came against the Hoosiers. If the two face off in the Big Ten championship, Indiana looks to continue its dominance over the Ducks. The Hoosiers and Ducks don’t play each other during the regular season.
The USC Trojans, whom the Ducks will face at the Los Angeles Coliseum on Sept. 26, also look to knock off Oregon in what should be one of the top games of the first month of the college football season. Oregon coach Dan Lanning is undefeated 2-0 against USC’s Lincoln Riley and looks to extend the Ducks’ winning streak against the Trojans to five games.

DESCHUTES COUNTY, Ore. — Oregon State Police are asking for additional witnesses to come forward after a three-vehicle crash on Highway 20E in Deschutes County left two people seriously injured.
Troopers responded at 12:47 p.m. Friday, July 10, to the crash near milepost 41. A preliminary investigation found a westbound 2013 black Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck pulling a single-axle utility trailer attempted to pass a black Dodge 4500 towing a trailer. Police said an eastbound Hyundai Elantra tried to avoid a collision with the Chevrolet, lost control in the gravel on the eastbound shoulder, veered into the westbound lane and collided with the trailer pulled by the Dodge 4500.
The driver and passenger of the Hyundai were flown by air medic to a local hospital with serious injuries.
The crash affected traffic for about five hours. The driver of the Chevrolet was cited for careless driving and unsafe passing.
OSP is asking anyone who may have seen the Chevrolet driving westbound on Highway 20 at the moment of, or prior to, the collision to contact the OSP Northern Command Center dispatch at 800-442-0776 or *OSP (*677) from a mobile phone. Callers should reference case number SP26-255130.
