The Oregon Ducks host the Penn State Nittany Lions today, February 14, 2026, at Matthew Knight Arena in Eugene, Oregon.

Tip-off is scheduled for 3:00 p.m. ET (12:00 p.m. PT) and will be broadcast nationally on the Big Ten Network.
Game Preview: Ducks Fighting to End Losing Streak
Oregon (8-16, 1-12 Big Ten) enters Saturday’s contest desperate for a victory. The Ducks are currently mired in a 10-game losing streak and have struggled to find offensive consistency, scoring fewer than 67 points in four of their last five outings. Despite the recent slump, oddsmakers have installed Oregon as a 6.5-point favorite at home, banking on a bounce-back performance in front of their home crowd.
Penn State (11-14, 2-12 Big Ten) arrives in Eugene looking for back-to-back conference wins for the first time this season. The Nittany Lions recently secured a narrow victory over Minnesota and are making their first-ever trip to Oregon for a basketball game. Led by a defense that recently held Washington to just 28 second-half points, Penn State aims to capitalize on Oregon’s injury-depleted roster.
