Halftime – Tough spot for Brandon Angel to pick up his second foul on a moving screen just before halftime, trying to free Shelstad for a deep three. Oregon's front court is in some foul trouble now as Angel, Bittle and Cook have two fouls apiece. Indiana threw it deep to Reneau, who drew Evans' first foul with less than a second left in the half. Reneau missed the front end of the one and one. Oregon leads 35-32 at halftime.

1H 1:04 – Technical foul called on Oregon's Supreme Cook. Rice went 1 for 2 at the line. Ballo turned it over trying to get to his lefty hook, and Oregon answered with a three from Evans. It's loud here now as Oregon leads 35-32.

1H 2:05 – Reneau misses both free throws after Indiana executed an out-of-bounds play to get him a look and draw a foul. Game stops as Trey Galloway is down on the court with an injury. Looked like he got hit in the face. Galloway subbed out for Leal. Indiana takes its first lead since the early minutes with a Leal layup, 31-30.

1H 3:88 – Indiana has gotten a boost from Carlyle off the bench. He's made two threes already for the first time since Dec. 9. That's especially important tonight, given that Goode has been on the bench with two fouls for the last few minutes. Oregon leads 30-27.

1H 5:12 – Two fouls on Goode, 6:33 left in the half. Ballo checks back in. Indiana just 1 for 7 from three to start, and Goode banked one in. Evans knocked down Oregon's fourth three of the game right after, and Carlyle answered with a three after an offensive rebound. Oregon leads 28-22.

1H 7:56 – Nice move from Shelstad, hitting a stepback 3-pointer over Rice. He's off to a good start with seven points already. Carlyle missed a three shortly after, his first attempts of the game. Oregon up 25-19 at the under-8.

1H 9:21 – Indiana has gone back to the two-big lineup with Ballo and Reneau on the floor together, along with Rice, Carlyle and Leal. Those two played about a minute together at Washington, and Woodson has mostly staggered their minutes in recent weeks. Indiana allowed a layup on the first defensive possession, then Reneau scored inside. Ballo spaced out near the free throw line and gave him plenty of space. Oregon leads 22-17.

1H 10:45 – Tough finish inside from Reneau after an offensive rebound by Goode. Reneau led Indiana with 22 points on 10 for 13 shooting at Washington. After a Tracey layup, Galloway passed it out of bounds trying to find Reneau inside. Oregon leads 20-15 at the under-12.

1H 13:10 – Leal assisted Goode for Indiana's first three of the game. Goode banked that one in, something you usually don't see from Indiana's best 3-point shooter. Rice and Reneau first off the bench for Indiana, replacing Leal and Ballo. Oregon leads 16-13 after a Barthelemy three.

1H 14:18 – Galloway and Ballo ran the pick-and-roll to perfection, leading to an alley-oop dunk for Ballo. Angel got a tip back after Bittle's missed three, and it led to a three for Bamba. Galloway answered with a floater. He's been effective so far. Oregon leads 13-10.

1H 15:51 – Oregon is being very physical with Indiana inside. Mgbako missed a layup through traffic, and Ballo fumbled the ball out of bounds on the following possession. Bittle scored over Ballo after the turnover. Galloway combatted that physicality by stopping short of the defense and hitting a floater. Shelstad sped past the Indiana defense for a layup after. Mgbako airballed a three, sending us to the under-16 timeout. Oregon leads 10-6.

1H 17:47 – Oregon doubled Oumar Ballo as soon as he caught it in the post. He got it out of there and Indiana worked it around to Galloway for an open three, but he missed. Oregon 7-footer made a midrange jumper over Ballon on the Ducks' first possession. Ballo answered with a layup. Goode missed an open three on the next trip, but Oregon left Galloway unmarked for a tip in. Shelstad answered with a layup on the other end. Goode fouled Bittle on a put-back attempt. He missed but made both free throws. Oregon leads 6-4.

5:55 p.m. – Indiana's going with the same starting lineup from the Washington game: Trey Galloway, Anthony Leal, Luke Goode, Mackenzie Mgbako and Oumar Ballo. For Oregon, it's Jackson Shelstad, Keeshawn Barthelemy, TJ Bamba, Brandon Angel and Nate Bittle. Bamba and Rice were teammates at Washington State for two seasons from 2021-23.
