How the Ducks can advance to the Sweet 16: The Ducks, who beat Maryland in the second round of the Big Ten tournament, have now won three of their past four games, their best streak since winning four in a row in late January. When Oregon beat Maryland in Indianapolis, Michigan was up next — and the Wolverines handed the Ducks a 22-point loss. Oregon's likely next opponent, Texas, offers an even bigger challenge.

This was also the 23rd win of the season for the Ducks, making this their most successful campaign since Sabrina Ionescu's senior year in 2020, when the NCAA tournament was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. — Creme

You can be sure Texas coach Vic Schaefer is focusing on a defensive game plan to limit Oregon standout guard Katie Fiso, who had 22 points on 9-of-12 shooting against the Hokies. — Voepel
