GAME 7 – Battle 4 Atlantis: No. 11 Oregon (6-0) vs. No. 8 Gonzaga (7-0)

Thursday, Nov. 28, 1:02 p.m. PT, ESPN

1 – Oregon’s longest active winning streak, 15 games, is against Gonzaga. It is a streak that dates back to the 1930-31 season. This will be the first meeting between the Ducks and Bulldogs since the 1999-00 season, when Oregon defeated Gonzaga 70-64 in Hawaii.

2 – The Ducks are 6-0 for the first time since the 2015-16 season.

3 – The Ducks are playing a unique stretch of five non-conference games against teams that were picked first or second in their respective preseason polls. That run includes Memphis (tie-1st, American Athletic), UT Arlington (2nd, Sun Belt), Houston (tie-1st, American Athletic), Seton Hall (1st, Big East) and Gonzaga (1st, West Coast).

4 – Now the winningest coach in Oregon history, Dana Altman is one of six active head coaches in NCAA Division I who have posted a winning record for the last 22 consecutive seasons. The other five, Mike Krzyzewski, Tom Izzo, Roy Williams, Bill Self and Jim Boeheim, are in the Hall of Fame.

5 – Payton Pritchard is now one of just two players in program history with 1,000 points, 500 assists and 400 rebounds, joining UO Hall of Famer Ron Lee. He also passed Luke Ridnour for third on the UO career assists list against Boise State.• BENCH – Oregon’s 2019 recruiting class was ranked fourth nationally, after being third in 2018. One member of that class – freshman C.J. Walker – scored a season-high 12 points Wednesday night against Seton Hall.
