The Ducks are using the social network’s live stream to show its fans rare moments during its NCAA basketball tourney journey.
If you’re an Oregon basketball fan following the Ducks on its improbable fun run to the Final Four — you’ve probably checked them out on Facebook Live, too.
Before Saturday’s tip off against North Carolina , Oregon, affectionately nicknamed ‘The Webfoots,” has been giving fans rare, behind-the-scenes glimpses of its March Madness tourney journey using the social network’s popular live-streaming service.
There’s this locker room celebration, featuring head coach Dana Altman getting doused with water after the Ducks stunned the Kansas Jayhawks 74-60 last Saturday, beating Kansas practically in its own backyard:
“No one gave us a chance because you’re playing in front of 18,000, you’re in Kansas City. They didn’t think we’re tough enough. But you guys showed them great competitiveness,” Altman told the team. “I’m so happy for you and I’m so proud of you. That’s an unbelievable performance! ”
Shhhh…. Tyler Dorsey and the Oregon Ducks may just win 2017 NCAA men’s basketball tournament as they make their first Final Four appearance in 78 years.
