EUGENE, Ore. - The Oregon women's basketball team will play four power conference schools during its 2016-17 non-conference slate, head coach Kelly Graves announced Wednesday.
The Ducks will play Michigan State, Mississippi State, Clemson and Ole Miss in addition to eight other teams in non-conference action. Mississippi State defeated Michigan State, 74-72, in the second round of the NCAA Tournament a year ago before the Bulldogs lost to eventual national champion UConn in the Sweet 16. Hawai'i and Idaho also advanced to the NCAA Tournament last season.
In additon to the power conference games, another highlight of the schedule will be a Moda Center doubleheader with the men's basketball team on Dec.
