- Washington controlled the glass 45-23 with an 18-1 edge in offensive rebounds and converted 10 of 21 attempts from three-point range.
- Franck Kepnang tallied 10 points and 14 rebounds and Hannes Steinbach added 10 and 13, while Jacob Ognacevic, Zoom Diallo and Quimari Peterson each scored 12.
- Oregon dropped to 8-12 (1-8 Big Ten) with its sixth straight defeat, shooting 36% from the field after a 28% first half.
