Ducks Handle Devils

Coming off a shocking, dominating upset of the #1 Gators, not many people were sure how the Ducks would respond. Well, they responded with a similar performance as the week before, as they throttled the Blue Devils 63-7.

Oregon started the game by driving straight down the field and taking a quick 7-0 lead on a 7 yard rush by Legarrette Blount. The following drive Duke strolled down the field with ease and eventually punched it in on a 29 yard pass play from Blue Devil QB Thaddeus Lewis. After that however, it was all Oregon.

For the second week in a row the Ducks went on to put up an insane amount of unanswered points as they scored 8 straight touchdowns to take charge of the Devils. Quarterback Jeremiah Masoli led Oregon's offense with a 244 yard, 4 touchdown performance. He ended the game with an amazing 253.4 passer rating. After not having to throw the ball much the previous week against Florida, it was important for Masoli to set the tone early passing the ball. Legarrette Blount also added 4 touchdowns and 144 yards on the ground to the offensive onslaught.

The Ducks met their challenge in their first road game of the year and return home next week to face the in-state rival Oregon State Beavers. The "Civil War" is a great battle every year that usually comes down to the wire. Both teams will come into the game looking to pad their 2-0 record and to grab more spotlight from the media.
