Will Bynum scored six points and dished out five assists at Oregon.
Teondre Williams scored 19 points, one of six Ducks in double-figures, as Oregon raced to a 89-66 win over Montana State in Eugene on Saturday.
Oregon shot 50% while holding the Bobcats to a season-low 41%, and the Pac 10 Ducks out-rebounded the Bobcats 49-to-20. "We competed hard for the first 12 minutes, but athletically they had too much in the tank," MSU coach Brad Huse said. "I thought we played hard and did a good job taking care of the ball. They're a big, athletic team."
Branden Johnson scored 16 points to lead the Bobcats, while Erik Rush added 14. Will Bynum grabbed four rebounds, dished out five assists, and nabbed a steal.
Montana State hosts early-season conference games next weekend, as Northern Colorado comes to town on Friday and Northern Arizona visits Worthington Arena on Saturday.
