EUGENE, Ore. — No. 18 Oregon will face its toughest test to date on Thanksgiving Day, as the Ducks will meet eighth-ranked North Carolina at 2 p.m. PT at the Chiles Center on the University of Portland campus as part of the Phil Knight Invitational.
Both the Ducks and Tar Heels are off to 4-0 starts this season, as Oregon picked up a 66-54 win over Southern Utah Monday night at Matthew Knight Arena. UNC, who enters the weekend with its highest ranking since the 2015 season, marks the first top-25 team UO will face this season.
