OR vs Stanford college football game TV time, preview, betting odds
The College Football Playoff committee already gave Stanford a good boost in the rankings heading into Week 11. With the OR defense looking to capitalize off of the touchdown a tough penalty turned the momentum.
Washington State (+10) over UCLA – The streaking Cougars have won four of their last five games with the lone loss a 30-28 heartbreaker to No. 7 Stanford.
Against Washington State, freshman quarterback Josh Rosen rushed for a career-high 70 yards on five carries, including what was a potential winning, 37-yard touchdown run with 1:09 left. The only thing we didn’t do was keep Christian McCaffrey under 200 all-purpose yards, but sadly that was expected. One of the fumbles turned into a vital field goal for the Ducks, and the other ended a potentially game-tying scoring opportunity with 2:06 left in the game. Take the Ducks and the points.
“We just go out there with the mentality that the whole world is against us”, Perkins said. Oregon WR Darren Carrington has 344 yards receiving the past three games….
Ukropina would attempt a 49 yard field goal.
The Trojans and Bruins now have played several common opponents. If they lose both games down the stretch, both OR and Wazzou will have a chance to win the the North. Hogan would be sacked by DeForest Buckner forcing a 4th down as the Oregon Defense rose to the occasion again.
It’s OR 38, Stanford 36.
Stanford D vs. Oregon QB Vernon Adams. Defensively, the Stanford Cardinal yield 215.0 yards in passing and 123.7 yards in rushing. A total of 12 different receivers caught a pass from Cal’s junior quarterback in the game, and four different players scored a touchdown reception. “But when we have it we have to be efficient with it and take advantage of chances”.
The Cardinal’s grind-it-out attack had the ball for 24 more minutes than the Ducks.
The Cardinal have been the favorite only twice in the last 14 meetings between the two and they lost both of those games straight-up. With only 10 seconds left, the Cardinal attempted a two-point try, but Ducks outside linebacker Tevin Coleman blitzed off the edge and was ignored by right tackle Casey Tucker, which forced Hogan to throw the ball before tight end Austin Hooper broke off his route.
A year ago at this time Marcus Mariotta was lighting the world on fire and leading the Oregon Ducks to an undefeated regular season, a Pac-12 Championship and a spot in the National Title game. Wide receiver Charles Nelson went untouched for a 75-yard touchdown run. The Ducks defense has been downright atrocious with the offense showcasing Jekyll and Hyde tendencies, the Utah thumping at home of 60-20 being a key example.
It had been a while since Goff had this kind of game, but he reminded those watching just how quickly he can have an impact through the air with over 450 yards and six touchdowns thrown in the win. I think over the rest of the season the 573 is sustainable but probably not likely in the game against Stanford.
After Hogan lost two fumbles on snaps in the fourth quarter, Stanford (8-2, 7-1, No. 7 CFP) tied it on Hogan’s 4-yard touchdown pass to Greg Taboada. Following a controversial pass interference call on third down the Stanford offense took over inside the red zone. But it was Oregon’s defense, which has looked rocky at times this year, which held the Cardinal on a crucial 2-point conversion late in the 4th quarter. Remember, Notre Dame opened the season by hammering Texas, the team that beat Oklahoma.
Season defining win: Going into the night the Ducks had two losses they deserved; those being at MI State and of course Utah. If only the Washington State loss had not happened we would be thinking much differently now. Regardless, this is an enormous win for the OR football program.
The Cardinal got touchdown runs from Hogan and McCaffrey and powered their way to 276 yards on 43 plays in 21:32 of possession.
