Oregon entered Saturday with an opportunity to notch a season-defining win. Instead, the Ducks were run out of their own building. Arizona trounced UO, 87-78, at Matthew Knight Arena in a contest that wasn't as close as the final score would indicate. Wildcats' senior guard Caleb Love torched the Ducks for a career-high 36 points on 12-of-18 shooting, including 5-of-8 from three-point range.
