EUGENE - Undefeated Oregon (11-0) wraps up 2006 with a pair of games against in-state rivals.

Thursday versus Portland (7:00 PM, McArthur Court), the Ducks try for a perfect non-conference record.

Then it’s the Pac-10 opener on Saturday at Oregon State (1:00 PM, Gill Coliseum.)

The Ducks look to go 12-0 for the first time in 60 years.

The last Oregon team to go 12-0 was the 1946-47 squad, which won its first 12 games.

Oregon’s current 11-game winning streak is the 11th of 11 games or longer in school history, and is just the second 11-game winning streak in the last 60 years.

It is also the longest under coach Ernie Kent, and UO’s longest since an 11-game streak spanning the 1995-96 (1 game) and 1996-97 seasons (10 games).

Oregon enters the week (through Tuesday) as one of four unbeaten Division I teams left nationally.
