Take THAT, Lute Olson!

I am going to work a couple hours later than usual, so I have the time this morning to sip coffee and reflect.
I am reflecting on Aaron Brooks (pictured, No. 0) hitting the game-winning shot with two seconds left for my BELOVED OREGON DUCKS last night. The visiting, 15th-ranked Ducks beat No. 10 Arizona, 79-77, to complete Oregon's first road sweep of the Wildcats and the Sun Devils in 29 tries.
The Ducks' win was somewhat overshadowed by the NFL playoffs, but its significance cannot be overstated.
The victory gave Oregon a 6-0 road record and a share of first place with UCLA in the Pacific-10 Conference.
A few more wins, and the hoops team MIGHT be able to overcome the disappointment caused by the underachieving Oregon football team.
Maybe.
