PULLMAN – When Oregon’s Chris Boucher made his first shot during Saturday’s 85-66 win at Washington State, the arena public address announcer mistakenly referred to him as “Charles.”

With an early lead and the No. 15 Ducks’ best player sent to the locker room, the table was set for WSU to pull the upset and continue its hot start to conference play.
But when a team is as stacked with talent as UO, even the backups can carry the team.
