Oregon Tallies Five Interceptions in Win Over Arizona, Ducks 41 - Wildcats 19 - Addicted to Quack

After missing the second half of last week’s contest against Stony Brook, starting quarterback Anthony Brown Jr. returned to the field this Saturday and put in another gutsy performance, as it was clear that he was playing through some pain.

The Ducks got off to a great start by scoring on a 63-yard touchdown pass to Jaylon Redd on their first drive and then picking off quarterback Jordan McCloud on Arizona’s first play of the game. Safety Bennett Williams was the Duck to collect the first pick - his first of two interceptions on the night - and the Oregon offense rewarded his effort by setting up a 21-yard field goal for Camden Lewis to give the home team the early two-score lead.

But the Wildcats put together an impressive 10-play, 91-yard drive that ended with a McCloud touchdown pass to Bryce Wolma. Oregon responded by flying down the field, 75 yards in under two minute, and adding an 11-yard CJ Verdell touchdown to the Duck lead.

Arizona put together another long drive following the Oregon score, but Mykael Wright picked off McCloud in the end zone to deflate their momentum. The Ducks then took just eight plays to travel 80 yards and get Terrance Ferguson in the end zone with a 9-yard TD catch, but to the Wildcats’ credit they were able to make it a two-score game at the half with a field goal.

Arizona continued their upset bid by marching to the Oregon red zone once again coming out of halftime, but Mykael Wright killed the drive with another Duck interception. Unfortunately, the pick left the Oregon offense in a bad spot, and a collapsed pocket resulted in a safety.

The Wildcats made a lot of Duck fans nervous when they cut the lead to five at the end of the third with a Drake Anderson touchdown run, but Oregon ended the night with two unanswered scores to seal the win: an 18-yard touchdown pass to Spencer Webb and a 68-yard pick six from Bennett.

Star player Kayvon Thibodeaux saw very limited snaps in the first half, then appeared to leave the game in pain. Mase Funa, Keith Brown, and Adrian Jackson returned to the field this week and were a welcome sight. Oregon takes on Stanford this Saturday at 12:30 PM on ABC.
