ST. LOUIS (AP) - Tajuan Porter, the little guy nobody wanted, has Oregon one game away from the Final Four. The 5-foot-6 freshman tied an NCAA regional record with eight 3-pointers and finished with 33 points, and Oregon withstood a frantic comeback to top seventh-seeded UNLV 76-72 on Friday in the Midwest Regional.
The third-seeded Ducks advanced to play top-seeded Florida on Sunday.
"You get the feeling he was feeling good," Ducks guard Aaron Brooks said of Porter. "He's been doing it all year. It's not surprising to me. I had a front-row seat, the best seat in the house."
