The Ducks are No. 15 in this week’s AP men’s college basketball poll and the same spot in the coaches poll after Saturday’s 65-58 loss to the Boilermakers

Oregon beat itself up for much of this game, and bad shot selection, silly turnovers, and a lack of rebounding were its downfalls. One solace the Ducks can take away is that most of their mistakes are fixable mistakes, but there’s a lot of fixing before the Ducks host Washington Tuesday night.

Oregon men's basketball is back at Matthew Knight Arena on Saturday for a top-25 showdown against Big Ten power Purdue, the NCAA runner-up in 2024.

The Ducks shot just 36% from the field in a 65-58 loss to No. 17 Purdue Saturday afternoon in front of an announced crowd of 12,364 at Matthew Knight Arena.

Oregon could be without one of its backup guards against No. 17 Purdue. Ra’Heim Moss, who is averaging 1.7 points and 1.9 rebounds in 12 minutes per game off the bench, missed Sunday’s game at Penn State due to an unspecified injury suffered against Ohio State.

Not even a sellout crowd at Matthew Knight Arena could elevate the Oregon men's basketball team to victory Saturday as the Ducks lost to Purdue

The Oregon Ducks hosted the Purdue Boilermakers on Saturday afternoon. It was a top-25 matchup in the Big Ten with the Ducks ranked No. 13 and the Boilermakers

The Purdue Boilermakers hadn't won a game against a ranked opponent since November 29, 2024. That all went away on Saturday as they went on the road to Eugene and knocked off No. 13 Oregon, 65-58.
