First off...Oregon is really good. Bell and Boucher don't get enough credit. Can we just call their top four the Oregon Killer B's?
Second...Kuzma, Barefield and Daniels had good games, right in line with their average. But between Collette, Bonam and Rawson Utah was down -24 PER.
Third...Give it up for PVD. Dude had the only positive PER in the game. He actually had a much better game vs Washington State but 2nd best for Pac12 game.
Those three Collette, Bonam and Rawson were 9/16 from the field with 6 turnovers. Granted Collette was coming off a few days without practice and Rawson just didn't match up with Oregon.

Kuzma's performance was the 28th best for a Ute. Bell only put up the 14th best for a UO.

The bad...I have no idea how many dunks Oregon had...but it was a record. Utah gave up 6 blocks (season high) and 11 in the past 2 games. 37 in the first 18 games. Oregon finished at 49.1% and Utah finished at 48.1%. Both teams were over 50% for most of the game. Oregon scored a 2 on 32.8% of their possessions, Utah has allowed +30% in 5 of their 6 losses, the other game was only 17.9% from San Francisco (they made 19.1% of their possessions were from three, a season high). Utah actually had a really good game, nothing really stands out. -4 in steals was probably the difference in the game, Oregon was easily +6 on points off turnovers. The game was fairly slow, only 133 possessions. Utah games average 144.1 possessions. As a team, in Utah wins Utah is around 27.5% of all shots garnered an assist...in losses they are only at 19.5%.

The good...Utah did give Oregon everything they could handle. 4 blocks was a high for a Utah loss. Utah held Oregon to only 20% of assists/shot attempts (season low for a Utah loss) but in Utah wins they hold their opponent under 16%. Oregon didn't beat Utah from the outside. The 27.8% was the lowest Utah allowed in a loss, giving up 39.2% in losses on the season. The 11 assists and 28 rebounds were also season lows for UO in Utah losses. This game was slow and methodical and efficient for both teams. Utah was only -1 in possessions but +5 in turnovers. That's your ballgame. Utah is +2 in turnovers in losses and +0.4 in wins.

Tough game, Utah had a chance.

The Beavers should be the cure. I say 81-60 win for Utah tomorrow. Go Utes!
