Looking to extend a 24-game non-conference regular-season win streak, No. 17/19 COLORADO is the last Pac-12 team to open the 2013-14 campaign and will do so tonight ... Pac-12 teams have a full slate of games scheduled, with games happening every day this week with only a break in the action on Thursday. League teams went 10-7 in the opening days of the new campaign, which included three top-25 matchups, including a top-three clash with then-third ranked STANFORD taking on defending NCAA Champion Connecticut on the East Coast on Monday night ... OREGON is looking to rebounding from the program’s worst-ever season, which was also mired by injury, and has already made an impressive showing, scoring 131 points in a win in the team’s opening game of the season, breaking a Pac-12 record that had stood for 20 years ... The first Pac-12 Networks women’s basketball game of the season pits No. 15/10 Nebraska with UTAH on Friday  night and follows up with No. 12/14 North Carolina visiting UCLA on Sunday, Nov. 17 ... The Cynthia Cooper era opened at USC with a pair of wins, the first time since 2005-06 the Trojans had opened the season 2-0 ... Typically known for their defense, ARIZONA STATE and OREGON STATE each scored in the 80s in their games while limiting their opponents to less than 50 points ... STANFORD’s Chiney Ogwumuke picked up her league-record 10th-career Pac-12 Player of the Week honor, while OREGON’s Chrishae Rowe was tabbed the Pac-12 Freshman of the Week ... Three Pac-12 teams are ranked in this week’s polls: No. 3/5 Stanford, No. 10/11 CALIFORNIA and No. 17/19 COLORADO.
