Oscar da Silva's 27 points and 15 rebounds, and 10 critical points from Tyrell Terry in the second half led Stanford to a 70-60 upset of No. 11 Oregon on Saturday afternoon in Palo Alto, Calif.
Oregon went almost 10 minutes without a basket in the second half and lost an eight-point lead early in the half.
The Ducks finally hit a shot with 4:22 left, a 3 by Payton Pritchard. Oregon got as close as four, 62-58, after its long dry spell but couldn't retake the lead.
The loss ended Oregon's four-game winning streak, while Stanford snapped a three-game losing streak.
Will Richardson's 17 points led the Ducks (18-5, 7-3 Pac-12). Pritchard added 16 points but made just 5 of 21 shots. Terry was the only other double-digit scorer for the Cardinal, finishing with 12.
The Ducks made just 6 of 30 shots in the second half while Stanford (16-5, 5-3) was 13 for 26.
The Ducks took their largest lead of the first half, nine points at 30-21, on Chris Duarte's drive and finish with a layup at the 4:17 mark. Duarte was solely responsible for nine straight points in 4 minutes, 6 seconds, with two dunks, a 3 and a layup.
Richardson hit a short jumper with 7.9 seconds left, giving Oregon a 36-28 lead, and the Cardinal had what was originally ruled a made basket by Spencer Jones taken off the board when an officials review showed the ball left his hand just after the game clock showed zeros.
Duarte had 12 first-half points and Pritchard nine, with da Silva scoring 10 points for Stanford. The Cardinal's only lead of the half was 9-7 just over four minutes into the game.
Oregon's lead alternated between six and eight points through the early part of the second half. Then the Cardinal cut it to 47-44 on a Lukas Kisunas dunk and Isaac White's 3 with 10:33 left.
The Ducks went cold, Terry hit back-to-back 3s and Stanford took the lead again with 7:02 left. Stanford had an 11-0 run before Oregon scored again, and two Terry free throws gave the Cardinal a 57-50 lead with 5:14 to play.
