LAS VEGAS - The ever-growing Cirque du Soleil franchise in this never-sleep city added yet another show Friday, with the acrobats sporting green and yellow and red and blue and defying gravity around the basket with jaw-dropping artistry.
Must see! Buckle your seat! Heart-stopper! All those cheesy Vegas show words suited Friday’s meeting between Arizona and Oregon to a glittery, ill-fitting tee.
It delivered by going into overtime before the Ducks won 95-89.
Whew.
The Ducks are the best team in the Pac-12 Conference right now, a point they made with conviction. It is not a changing-of-the-guard kind of moment for the conference, but it is certainly a “take notice” one.
