EUGENE, Ore. (AP) - Luke Ridnour scored all 23 of his points in the second half and extended his free throw streak to a school-record 43 in a row to lead Oregon over No. 25 Stanford 79-64 Thursday night.
Ridnour sat for the final 18:03 of the first half after picking up his second foul in 32 seconds. He came back to help the Ducks (16-5, 6-4 Pac-10) stop Stanford's four-game winning streak.
In the second half, he shot 7-for-13 from the field and made all six of his foul shots. The previous school mark for free throws was 41 straight.
Oregon, which started the week by dropping out of The Associated Press rankings for the first time in 18 weeks, beat the Cardinal for only the second time in 15 games. The Ducks avenged an 81-57 loss earlier this season at Stanford.
The Cardinal (16-6, 7-3), which recently beat then-No. 1 Arizona, got 17 points from Julias Barnes. Josh Childress added 15 points and 13 rebounds.
Reserve Andre Joseph had 17 points for Oregon. Luke Jackson and Ian Crosswhite each had 14.
Joseph picked up most of the slack for Ridnour. The junior guard entered the game four minutes into the first half and scored 14 points before halftime, including a three-minute stretch when he made three 3-pointers.
Joseph's third 3 ignited a 9-2 run that ended with the Ducks up 29-18 three minutes before the break.
The second half belonged to Ridnour. The junior attempted Oregon's first six shots and scored its first six points to give the Ducks a 42-32 lead.
After the Cardinal cut the lead to 47-44, Ridnour scored eight straight with a pair of 3-pointers and two foul shots for Oregon to make it 58-51.
