Colorado-Oregon Notes

Colorado held Oregon to 41 points and 26.9 percent from the field, the second fewest by a Buffaloes’ conference opponent in the Pac-12 era (33 vs. Utah, Dec. 31, 2011).
 
Oregon scores its fewest points in any game since a 62-40 loss to Washington State March 11, 2009, in the Pac-10 Tournament.
 
Colorado held Oregon to 19 points and six field goals made in the first half, the fewest by a Pac-12 opponent at the CU Events Center the since the Buffaloes held the Ducks to six field goals and 17 points on Feb. 2, 2019.
 
Oregon made just 1 of 14 from the 3-point line. The Ducks’ one 3-pointer made and 7.1 percent from the arc was the lowest by a CU opponent since Oregon State shot 5.9 percent (1-17) on Feb. 15, 2020 in Corvallis.
 
Colorado held Oregon to 26.9 percent from the field and had a plus-18 advantage on the boards. The Buffs improve to 83-6 in the Tad Boyle era (and 3-1 this year) when holding the opponent to 40 percent or less and enjoying at least a plus-8 advantage on the boards.
 
Colorado increases its series lead to 16-11 over the Ducks, including an 11-1 mark in Boulder.
 
With Tristan da Silva scoring a career-high 30 points, it marks the first time since 2014-15 the Buffaloes have two different players score at least 30 points in a game (along with KJ Simpson). Askia Booker had two 30-plus point games (30 vs. Arizona on Jan 15, 2015 and 43 at USC on Jan. 29, 2015) while Josh Scott had the other (32 vs. Washington State on March 7, 2015)
 
Da Silva also tied career-highs with 11 field goals, seven free throw attempts and three steals. He’s had three steals in four of the last six games and is averaging 2.3 steals (total of 18) over the last eight games.
 
Da Silva and KJ Simpson have combined for seven games of 25-plus points, the most since Derrick White (7) and Xavier Johnson (2) combined for nine in 2016-17.
 
Julian Hammond (16 points, 4-9 FG, 5-5 FT) recorded career-highs in points, free throws made and attempted and minutes (32) while matching personal-bests in field goals attempted. He had 13 in the first half alone, his most in any one half.
 
Luke O’Brien (6 points, 11 rebounds) career and team season-high in rebounds. Just Colorado’s fourth double-figure rebounding effort of the season. Shooting 17 of 29 (.586) over the last five games.
