Once again, the Oregon Ducks find themselves in a must-win scenario of sorts.

Oregon (18-10, 10-6) and the Utah Utes (17-9, 8-6) tip-off at noon PT in Salt Lake City in the final game of the regular season. In order for them to keep its hopes of hosting a first-round NCAA tournament game alive, the Ducks will need to emerge with a victory at the Jon M. Huntsman Center.

The game will air on Pac-12 Networks. Per Bovada, Oregon is a -1.5 favorite.

Oregon is coming off an agonizing, double-overtime loss at Colorado on Wednesday and will look to bounce back from the disappointing result and snap its two-game losing streak.
