Oregon:
In its 16th season under coach Dana Altman, Oregon will try to earn its first victory this season at a neutral site (having lost its first three to Auburn, San Diego State and Creighton).
The Ducks relied on balanced scoring and unselfish play Tuesday to beat Portland by 25 points. Kwame Evans Jr. (21 points), Bittle (18), Jackson Shelstad (14), Dezdrick Lindsay (14) and Sean Stewart (12) each scored in double figures as Oregon notched a season-high 23 assists.
