The University of Oregon men’s basketball team (13-5, 4-2) will host Pac-12 Conference games this week against USC (5-13, 0-5) and UCLA (10-7, 3-2).

The Ducks take on the Trojans on Thursday at 5:30 p.m. (PT) before closing the weekend against the Bruins on Saturday at 1 p.m.

These are the only regular-season games UO will play against USC and UCLA as there is no return trip to Los Angeles in 2011-12.

The Ducks are coming off their first road sweep of the Arizona schools since the 2006-07 season.

USC has lost its last five games, including last week’s 66-47 home loss to UCLA.

The Ducks were swept by UCLA in the regular season a year ago, but won in the conference tournament semifinals by a score of 76-59.

Fans will be allowed the opportunity to celebrate the accomplishments of the University of Oregon’s 2011 football team and its championship in the 98th Rose Bowl Game presented by VIZIO during halftime of the Jan. 21st men’s basketball home game vs. UCLA.
