Stanford’s victory over Oregon
was its third in three tries against
ranked opponents this season.
The Cardinal moved to 11-4 over
all and 2-1 in the Pac-10 with the

The Ducks also failed to break
their Maples Pavilion curse. Oregon
hasn’t won at Maples since 1986.
“We’ve had success in every
other environment but this one,”
said Kent, a former Stanford assis
tant coach.
Of course, Stanford might have
something to do with that. The Car
dinal shot exactly 50 percent from
the field but went ll-for-19, or 57.9
percent, from three-point land.
Julius Barnes led the way for Stan
ford with 17 points, and four Cardi
nal players scored more than 13.
Center Rob Little was a presence in
side as he came up with three of
Stanford’s eight blocks and pulled
down nine rebounds.
Stanford also played lock-down
defense on most of the Oregon
team, especially Luke Jackson, who
scored a season-low seven points.
Jackson was guarded for most of the
night by Nick Robinson, a sopho
more forward starting for the first
time in his career after junior Justin
Davis went down with an injury.
“Not to take anything away from
Stanford, but I thought that was
more Luke Jackson shutting down
Luke Jackson,” Kent said. “But
we’re going to sit down and look at
some things, and he’s a smart
enough player where he’ll be able to
learn from this.”
Kent is hoping his team is smart
enough to learn from two blowout
losses in three days.
“Sometimes you need to get
slapped upside the head in order to
come back stronger,” Kent said.

Stanford's Julius Barnes shoots over Oregon's Jay Anderson on Saturday
at Maples Pavilion. The Cardinal hit 11-of-19 three-pointers in their 81-57 win.
Kent is also trying to shake
things up — slapping his team up
side the head? — by switching his
lineups around. For Saturday’s
contest, he replaced the struggling
James Davis and Brian Helquist
with Andre Joseph and Matt Short
in the starting lineup. Joseph had
eight points and seven rebounds
in 33 minutes, while Short also
had eight points but fouled out of
the game.
“I’m jacked up, I’ll probably be
jacked up for awhile,” Joseph said of
starting for the first time. “But this
isn’t a one-man team. We just got to
play better as a team.”
In the end, the word that came
up the most after the game was
“toughness.”
“Both those teams were tougher,
more physical than us,” Kent said.
“It’s a matter of getting tough,”
Short said.
“We’re just getting out-toughed,”
Ridnour said.

tough guy on the floor Saturday
