The No. 1-seeded Oregon Ducks swept through the Eugene Regional in three strikingly similar games. Oregon starting pitchers combined to throw three consecutive shutouts while the Ducks' offense provided enough support to help Oregon advance from the regional round for the ninth consecutive season.
It just so happens that Oregon's super regional opponent is also a familiar one.
The Ducks host No. 16 seed Kentucky (34-19) this weekend in the Eugene Super Regional in a rematch of the 2017 Eugene Super Regional, which the Ducks swept thanks to some late-inning heroics.
The new installment of the matchup gets underway at 6 p.
