When you are the underdog, you tend to step up your game, you fight a little harder, in some cases you want to win a little more. If nothing else, this Oregon Ducks team is gritty. They don’t give up the fight and they battle through everything. They fought off Rhode Island, battled past Michigan and took the wood to a top seeded Kansas team.
North Carolina and Oregon enter on four game winning streaks respectively, but only one will move to the Championship. Dana Altman has led this team for seven seasons, and they have made the Elite Eight for the last two years straight.
