The 51st campaign of Fighting Illini women's basketball continues with the team's return to conference play on Saturday at 2 p.m. CT, when Illinois hosts Oregon for the team's Big Ten home opener at State Farm Center. Mike Koon will call the action for the Illini on the Busey Bank Illini Sports Network (1400 AM / 93.9 FM). Streaming, audio, and stats links are also available at FightingIllini.com/wbb.
Oregon makes its first trip to Champaign as a member of the Big Ten and holds a 9-3 record on the season. The Ducks, 0-1 in conference play, dropped their first-ever B1G contest in a 66-53 defeat to No. 6 USC on Dec. 7.
Saturday's game marks Oregon's first true road contest of the season, as the Ducks spent a large chunk of their nonconference slate at home. Oregon is 9-1 on its home court this season, while the team suffered two neutral-site defeats against Georgia Tech and South Dakota State at the Hawai'i North Shore Showcase on Nov. 25-26.
The Ducks earned a ranked win over No. 12 Baylor on Nov. 10, while they also have a Power 4 victory against Auburn.
In the fourth all-time meeting between the sides, the Ducks and the Fighting Illini will square off as Big Ten opponents for the first time on Saturday. Oregon holds a narrow 2-1 edge in the series.
This will not be the Ducks' first trip to Champaign, though. The teams last played on Dec. 12, 2012, when Illinois posted an 80-62 home victory. Oregon claimed wins over the Orange and Blue in 1994 and 2011.
