Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 4 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Instant Reactions: Ducks don't fall into the Bears' trap with huge win It would have been easy to overlook a team such as California since the game with the Bears came after a huge road win at Utah and before playing USC. But the Ducks showed that they just aren’t built that way as their focus was completely on the Bears and the final score of 63-19 bore that out. Wide receiver Tez Johnson had his best game as a Ducks with 12 catches for 180 yards and two touchdowns. Bo Nix furthered his Heisman numbers with 386 yards passing and six total touchdowns, four passing and two rushing. Unfortunately, a damper was put on the entire day, which saw Cal running back Jaivian Thomas go down with a serious injury where he needed to be carted off and leave Autzen in an ambulance. With the win, Oregon moves to 8-1 overall, 5-1 in Pac-12 play and its playoff resume just got that much better...

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 6 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Ducks find footing after sloppy start, blast Cal by 44 Chaos reigned supreme in the opening quarter at Autzen Stadium. Two Duck touchdowns were wiped out and four total turnovers were lost with one going for a Cal score. But when the sloppiness cleared, Oregon's improved execution allowed them to pull away for a lopsided 63-19 victory over the Golden Bears. Bo Nix's first pass may have resulted in a turnover, but the fifty-year senior wound up with a Heisman-worthy day. Nix accounted for six touchdowns (four by air and two by foot) and threw for a season-high 386 yards. Brother Tez Johnson acted as Nix's favorite targets. Johnson caught two of the four aerial scores and finished with a career-high 12 catches and another career-best 180 yards. Troy Franklin added 79 yards and his 10th touchdown of the season. Evan Williams led the team with eight tackles and five other players finished with six.

NJDuck Moderator No. 9 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Three takeaways from Oregon's sloppy-yet-emphatic win over Cal Oregon continued its post-Washington run of blowouts on Saturday with a 63-19 win over Cal. The sixth-ranked Ducks scored 35 in the first half. Quarterback Bo Nix got an early curtain call. In just about every way, Oregon completely dominated its opponent once again. After a comfortable win over Washington State and then a demolition of Utah last week, it’s hard to argue four teams are playing better football than Oregon right now. Oregon moved to 8-1 with the victory. Cal dropped to 3-6. Here are three takeaways from the game.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 13 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Nix Accounts For Six TDs, Ducks Beat Cal Bo Nix accounted for nearly 400 yards of offense with six touchdowns, and his adopted brother Tez Johnson piled up 255 all-purpose yards as the No. 6 Oregon football team kicked off November with a 63-19 win Saturday over California before 54,046 fans at Autzen Stadium. The Ducks (8-1, 5-1 Pac-12) overcame a slow start that saw them double their turnover total for the season, to four, and commit nine penalties. But the prolific duo of Nix and Johnson more than made up for those sloppy moments, and the UO defense held an opposing offense to one or fewer touchdowns for the sixth time in nine games this season. "We put ourselves in some tough positions at times, didn't play to our standard of play certainly in the first half," UO coach Dan Lanning said. "But I thought our guys overcame that and … showed flashes of what we can be."

NJDuck Moderator No. 14 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Ducks Wire Player of Game: QB Bo Nix racks up 6 TDs in blowout over Cal Usually after throwing an interception on the first play of the game, a QB doesn’t go on to have one of the better games of their career. But, that’s exactly what Bo Nix did against the Cal Golden Bears. After throwing a touchdown to Terrance Ferguson near the start of the fourth quarter, Nix’s day was done, and he finished with 386 yards and 4 passing TDs on 29/38 passing (76% completion rate). Nix also made an impact on the ground, scoring two rushing TDs. It was good enough to win our Ducks Wire Player of the Game award.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 15 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Game recap: No. 6 Oregon cruises to 63-19 win over Cal Well, the key to the game this week was to continue dominating the turnover margin. Tez Johnson’s drop-turned-interception on the first play of the game was instead how things began. Steve Stephens IV’s interception less than 3 minutes later got things back on track. Casey Rogers followed with a strip sack later in the quarter and when things really started to feel normal again, more turnovers ensued. A mistimed snap while Johnson was in motion, resulted in a Cal scoop and score. Four total turnovers in just the first quarter alone. Chaos was beginning to ensue, but it didn’t last very long. After the two turnovers, both of which arguably caused by the weather conditions, the Ducks (8-1, 5-1 Pac-12) did a 180 in what ended as a 63-19 victory. This article is a good recap of the game and good read...

Brother Bo Nix threw Johnson's way on the opening play of Saturday's game with California. The ball ended up in the chest of Golden Bear Patrick McMorris after it popped out of Johnson's hands and into the air. Some head hanging may have followed in the seconds after, but those had a short shelf life, as Johnson was in the end zone soon for the first of seven Duck touchdowns in their 63-19 blasting of California.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 24 Share Posted November 5, 2023 10 major takeaways from Oregon's 63-19 blowout win over California With twice as many yards, three times as many points, and nine times as many offensive touchdowns, Oregon Ducks head coach Dan Lanning was a bit more frustrated than you might have expected him to be on Saturday night after his team’s 63-19 win over the California Golden Bears. His team had just improved to 8-1 on the season behind a six-touchdown performance from his quarterback, and his defense held the opposing offense to just 12 total points. Despite all of that, Lanning was intent on focusing on the things that needed to improve. “There are moments in that game that I certainly wish we could have back and execute a little bit better,” Lanning said after the game. “I think we put ourselves in some tough positions at times and didn’t play to our standard of play, certainly in the first half.” While he’s certainly right, there was a lot to like for Oregon fans on an afternoon where the offense totaled 597 total yards, 444 of which came through the air. There are things to clean up against improved competition going forward, but for the most part, it was another impressive Oregon victory.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 29 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Report Card: A rough start turns into a gem of a win against Cal Oregon didn’t draw up the beginning of the game on a chalkboard with the first play being an interception. Fortunately, it turned out okay as the Duck’s defense came to play and the offense got things together in the 63-19 win over California. But the wet conditions did create some plays you normally wouldn’t see such as a blocked field goal returned to for a touchdown only to be called back because the defense was offsides. Both teams were flagged for sideline interference and a 52-yard field goal was missed. The Ducks got their biggest punt return of the season and scored three touchdowns in the last five minutes of the first half. Other than that, it was a normal football game. Bo Nix was outstanding, Tez Johnson had a career game and the defense allowed just one touchdown, their first in two games. Coach Dan Lanning wasn’t particularly happy with the overall performance, but that just shows how high the standard has become in Eugene. Here’s another very good report card after the big win over California...

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 30 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Stock Report: Casey Rogers, Tez Johnson have monster days in blowout win You would think that in a 44-point blowout victory at home, there wouldn’t be many things to nitpick, and very few “stock down” performances throughout the day. That’s not quite how Oregon Ducks head coach Dan Lanning felt after the game, though. Rather, Lanning noted that there were several things that the team needed to improve on going forward, and he was not satisfied with the performance in the slightest. While it’s easy to see what he’s talking about, Oregon fans can also feel good about the way their team played, especially when it comes to performances by Bo Nix, Tez Johnson, Casey Rogers, Taki Taimani, and many others. So in our weekly stock report, let’s take a look at the guys who saw their stock rise the most, and a couple who have stuff to improve upon going forward...

The final score was 63-19, and it truthfully wasn’t even that close. Tosh Lupoi’s unit did a great job of slowing down the Golden Bears’ rushing attack, and getting off of the field as much as they could, giving the ball back to Bo Nix and the elite offense. Unsurprisingly, the performance allowed Oregon to move up in the national rankings when it comes to some key statistics. Here’s where they now stand after Week 10...

It’s not like we didn’t know that already, but it was good to see once again on Saturday as Nix led the Oregon Ducks to a 63-point outburst behind six touchdowns from the quarterback, boosting his Heisman Trophy odds higher than they already were. There wasn’t much to correct for the Ducks on the offense, at least from a fan’s perspective, as they scored on every redzone trip they had and went 10-for-14 on third downs, the best rate under Dan Lanning in Oregon. Unsurprisingly, the performance boosted them up in the national standings when it comes to some key statistics. Take a look at where they now stand..

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 35 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Snap Count Takeaways: Major notes from Oregon's usage report vs. California It’s always a good thing when you can get deep into the conference schedule and still find games where depth players get a chance to see the field. While those opportunities are usually limited to the non-conference slate and a select few games during the season, the Oregon Ducks have found a way to take the starters out of 4th quarters in numerous contests this season. That was the case on Saturday against the California Golden Bears in a 63-19 victory. While Bo Nix and the starters spent the first three quarters building a massive lead, the final quarter allowed for a litany of underclassmen to see the field and get some valuable experience.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 36 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Ranking Oregon's top 10 players vs. California according to PFF grades If you asked Dan Lanning or some of the Oregon Ducks players on Saturday night how they thought they played in a 63-19 win over the California Golden Bears, most of them would have told you that they were frustrated and that there was a lot of things they needed to clean up. If you look at the grades from Pro Football Focus, though, it was the best game that the Ducks have played all year. Overall, PFF gave Oregon a 93.6 grade in their win over California, which tops their previous high of 92.9 which was set in Week 1 against the Portland State Vikings. As you would expect, a lot of the player grades in this contest were incredibly high as well, with Bo Nix and his 6 total touchdowns leading the way.
