The Ducks and the Cowboys are two very dangerous teams here in the Midwest Region, and neither can be overly happy about seeing the other on their bracket on the first full day of the tournament. We really liked this Oregon team up to the point that it lost G Dominic Artis to an ankle injury. He is back in the fold, but he clearly isn’t the same to the point that Head Coach Dana Altman hasn’t even been using him in the most vital of situations that the Ducks have found themselves in. That’s really bad news for the U of O for sure. The Pokes came through a nasty Big XII this year to be on the No. 5 line, probably just a tad high for what they deserved. Still, this is a lineup that is just chock full of guards and little guys, and this is how you pull off big wins in the dance. G Marcus Smart and G Markel Brown are set to blast off and become superstars at the collegiate ranks as we see it, and we think that this is just the first in a number of steps that will be taken in their careers for the Cowboys. In the end, the offense for Oklahoma State is just too good. Oregon has been far too inconsistent against generally lesser teams in the Pac-12 for us to want to back it in this matchup.
