Dawgs play a hell of a game in a loss against Oregon 74-71

Easily their best game of the season. Trailing by as many as 15 in the second half, the Dawgs brought it down all the way to 1 point with 50 seconds to go in the game. Refs miss a clear foul on a Nate Roberts drive attempt... and Oregon gets the ball on a turnover. Oregon makes 1 free throw and the Dawgs get the ball back with 13 seconds to go in the game. They get an open 3 for Quade, but he missed and it was over.

Quade played great: 26 pts - looked like the best player on the court all night.

RaeQuan Battle finally found his stroke. Finished with 19 points on 4 of 6 from 3.

Rebounding lost them the game. The Dawgs were the better team in the half court by far but just couldn't keep Oregon off the glass. Oregon had 18 offensive rebounds and smoked us on second chance points. A real shame.

The reffing was fucking horrific. Total con job in favor of Oregon all night. Oregon attempted 27 free throws to UW's 10... just a joke. So many missed calls and so many bunnies called on the Dawgs. Again, a real shame.

Dawgs look like they're not the worst team in the PAC. They're a competitive bunch and are learning how to play together.

    So you’re saying it was a moral victory.

    Not a big fan of moral victories... but I think it's a sign that they're learning and understanding how to play together. It's a team that features a lot of new faces and a lack of identity that they're hopefully finding.

    Look back at Oregon’s history. Altman builds his team with transfers. Oregon for the first 2 months of the season are a joke. Then finally in mid January they start playing like a tourney team. If you aren’t beating Altman in December then you suck. There isn’t anything good to be taken from this.

    Did I say they were good? Or did you miss the part where I said they might not be the worst team in the PAC? That's hardly a ringing endorsement of this squad.

    Fouls were 20/16. And the difference was UW fouling down the stretch because they were behind.

    If you want to shoot more fts, stop taking so many soft jumpers. It’s college Bball— put your body into someone and throw your head back and say “ayyyyy” when you go up and you get a whistle 90% of the time.

    I don't care so much for foul disparity at a stat...

    When UW's bigs are on the bench at the 10-minute mark because of ticky tack over the back calls... yet UW loses the rebounding battle by a wide margin and Oregon's bigs don't sniff foul trouble there's an issue.

    There was a clear foul that should have been called when Nate Roberts went to the hoop down 1 in the final 30 seconds... got nailed on the hand... instead it's called a turnover.

    Then the foul on RaeQuan Battle when they had the Oregon player trapped at the end was f'n ridiculous... 2 bad ref calls help hand Oregon the win late.

    You got killed on the boards for the same reason UW did in every loss—UW is a soft zone team that can’t rebound for shit. Oregon’s best player is a big and fouled out with 3 minutes left.

    I didn't watch the game, but the final score and reading this thread has taught me that Oregon's basketball team is also shockingly bad this year.

    They are always bad until January. The exception was the final four year
