CBI Tournament: The Oregon Ducks Battle a Familiar Foe in the Creighton Bluejays
The Indiana Pacers Attempt to hold on to the Eight Spot Against the Struggling Boston CelticsThe Oregon Ducks are headed to the finals in the College Basketball invitational and will see some familiar faces in their opponent, the Creighton Bluejays

Oregon head coach Dana Altman is set to return to Omaha. With a 79-71 victory over Boise State last Wednesday at Matthew Knight Arena, the Oregon men's basketball team advanced to the College Basketball Invitational Championship Series against Creighton, the school Altman coached at for 16 years before arriving in Eugene. With the first matchup taking place in Omaha tonight, it is a homecoming that has Altman feeling uncomfortable.

Altman has admitted he does not want to play his former team. "I don't want to play Creighton," Altman told the Omaha World-Herald. "I know all the guys, the staff … you never like playing people that you're that close to." This is probably because Creighton knows the system that he is running. Creighton presents a genuine challenge and knows Altman's system backward and forward.

Junior guard Antoine Young played a starring role in each win, entering Monday with 27 assists and zero turnovers throughout the tournament. In addition to Young's prowess at the point, Creighton boasts an imposing inside presence with 6-foot-9, 270-pound Gregory Echenique and 6-foot-9, 250-pound Kenny Lawson. Catron will have his hands full, but Altman is fully confident that the senior is up to the task.

The Ducks are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 road games following three or more consecutive home game and the Bluejays are 7-0 ATS in their last seven games as a favorite.

Creighton wins the first game in what should be an emotional series against the Ducks.
