Oregon

[TomKingsley]

Really looking forward to this game!! Rebels on the Strip - thank you Cosch Rice and UNLV for including this game in our season ticket package. Should be interesting to see how much progress they have made since the Indiana game and how well they play in their half court sets. Can the Rebels shoot well enough to beat a very good Oregon team? Should be a great game. Oregon -2.....Go Rebels!!

I'm with you!! Can't wait!
I had too much travel this year for season tickets but the wife and I will be @ MGM tomorrow night.

Hows the injury/illness report looking?

 

[Masked_rebel]

Bern reporting everyone is practicing expect starters to be typical

 

[Mjs_702]

That's what I like to hear! Thanks!

 

[Dirty Vegas]

Fired up for this!!Big opportunity ahead for the rebels, hope they show up

Love this article from Youmans in the RJ.

Ben is all class. Dad can talk all he wants, I've got no hard feelings. I'm just here to win.

Took a look at Oregon's site. They beat #20 Baylor (by 7) and Fresno State (by 5) at home. Haven't played a road game yet.

They can turn it over a lot, and feel that they are letting leads slip away late. 17 turnovers in last game against Fresno State.

They're led by 6'6" forward Dillon Brooks, who went for 21/10 last game. 6'4" guard Tyler Dorsey is leading scorer at 14.7 ppg, shooting 51% from the field and 46% from three. Big guy is 6'10" Senior Chris Boucher, averaging 12.7/7.2.

This is gonna' be fun!

Big game tonight. We need to win a couple of these games against pac 12 teams. We have three more chances.

I hope Arizona is still ranked when we play them. Arizona st. is better than advertised and the shockers will have their key guys back. We just need this game for confidence and post season aspirations.

Van Fleet may be back for Wichita, but he's gonna be far from a 100%

This is becoming a nightmare.

i'm with you.

That should open a few eyes. Two wins against top-15 teams in three games with the only loss against the team that just beat Kentucky.

I couldn't have really asked for a better start to the season. I was hoping for 6-2 or 5-3.

 

[Dirty Vegas]

Big time win..... Get worried how we get so lethargic against the zone and those dam scoring droughts, good thing we burned them in the first half

 

[the Florian Trout]

man! hated seeing that lead disappear, but we held in.

yeah, a 7-1 record is really nice looking. we better have some votes!!!

 

[RebPubnGrub]

Free throw shooting carried us during the drought. Need to keep the pressure up and attack the zone. Great game!

 

[tarkaniancourt...nm]

We need to rebound better. It was a great win. Oregon is good and they're well coached.

DJ was nowhere to be found tonight. I wish Goodluck would have finished the year, we miss his rim protection.

Nice win; a lot of things to improve on. True road game Wednesday in a hostile environment. It's a game I had mark as a loss, but we have a chance.

I wish we would have pressed more in the 2nd half. This team is young and only going to get better. On the road defense will be key to winning games. Go Rebels!

We have been receiving votes in the polls. We just haven't been in the top-25 yet.

i don't know if we really want it yet. rather stay hungry for the trip to Wichita.

 

[Vegas007]

I was upset because we were up 20 and if we won by a huge margin that would really make a statement. But after the lead was cut down to 4 I'm suddenly feeling a lot better about an 11 point win.

I hope the team wouldn't be overly satisfied with any ranking in the top 25. The way I look at it is, if the team is ranked in the top 25, I want them in the top 20. If they are in the top 20, I want them in the top 10. If they are ranked in the top 10, I want them in the top 5. Etc.

More importantly though, as much as I care about rankings, making the NCAA tournament and winning in that tournament is a bigger deal.

 

[Mjs_702]

I'll take the ranking now. This team deserves to be ranked. I highly doubt it would make anyone cocky or complacent. This team appears to have both heart and character.

It's where you finish not where you start, but hard not to like this start.

Bravo Rebs. Wife and I enjoyed a great night at the MGM. This was a straight up home game, crowd was partisan and loud. So much fun.

I especially love to watch this team feed off the fans. All teams want a biased home crowd, but this one seems to respond and enjoy it as much as any Rebel group in recent memory.

Even sat a couple seats down from troy tulowitzki (and fam) if you can believe that... Seemed like a nice dude.

Rebels on the strip should happen every year, and every year it should happen just like last night.

 

[Vegas007]

We might be ranked higher than Arizona pretty soon if Gonzaga continues to dominate that team today.

Looks like I jinxed Gonzaga. Fine with me though because I want our OOC schedule to be tough.

Glad to hear Arizona held on.

Gave York vs Pat Mitchell

This is a Marquee matchup.

Dunno how long Zewski is out but him vs Zimm/Carter should be interesting.
