Troy Wayrynen-USA TODAY Sports

Oregon's task of shutting down Utah center Jakob Poeltl might be even tougher Sunday as starting center Chris Boucher's status will be a game-time decision due to an ankle injury. according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

2015-16 has been a breakout campaign for Boucher, as he leads the nation in blocks per game with a whopping 3.4 and is averaging over 12 points and eight boards for the Ducks.

Should the senior be unable to play, the Ducks frontcourt would be in dire straits against the Utes star 7-footer, as nobody averaging more than 10 minutes per game on the season stands taller than 6-foot-8 for Oregon.
