An offensive pass interference call pushes them back.
HB Kenyatta Jones gets 15 on 2nd and 19.
But the 3rd down pass is incomplete and they punt from our 40.
We'll have to start from our 4.

59 yard gain on a deep ball to Kai Olsen. Brought down at the 21.
Rattay finds FB LaShon Toomer for 15, down at the 2.
Nicolas Morris runs it in from there. 7-0, 9:05 left in the quarter.
7 play, 96 yard drive.

Jones again picks up 10+ on a carry - we are struggling with his speed so far.
14 yard run for Jones to our 35.
Another two first downs through the air, 1st and 10 at our 13.
TE Pat Nelson drops a TD pass on 3rd and 10. 31 yard field goal is good. 7-3, 3:59 left in the 1st.

Oregon is whistled for a 15 yard facemask penalty, we are across midfield with those yards.
Rattay finally throws an incompletion on his 6th attempt.
Morris runs for 14, hiding behind blockers.
And Gannon Dawson is knocked out of the game with a shoulder injury.
Rattay finds Martin alone in the end zone. 11 yard TD pass. 14-3, 0:31 left in the quarter.

Uh-oh, looks like a serious injury for DE Dickerson - patella is the word out of the locker room.
Oregon fumbles, but recovers it. They are near midfield.
Another fumble, this time after a big hit on a reception. DE Ronald Smith dives on it and we take over at our 44. Good hit by SS Taz Simms.

DE Rob Farr sacks Rattay.
OG Luis Jones takes away a one-handed grab by Voight. He seems to get a raw deal on this too often.
We punt on 4th and 26.

Oregon only gets 6 on 3rd and 9. Punt is a beauty, we are stuck at our 2.

Gain of 17 on a screen to Morris.
20 yard run for Morris - 10 carries for 68 yards so far today.
We had six, but the defense gets away with a blatant hold.
We have to punt, but leave Oregon on their 3.

We lose another DE to injury - not enough depth to handle this.
Oregon has to punt from their 30, but has to feel good going against our line (missing three players now) for the rest of this game.

Rattay is intercepted on a deep ball.

Oregon gets 12 through the air on 3rd and 10.
Another first down - 8 on a pass to the FB on 3rd and 4.
Putting together a nice drive in closing minutes of half.
The drive dies at the 24, thanks in part to a drop. 42 yard field goal is good. 14-6, 0:10 left in the half.


Halftime Notes:
Defense did the job, holding Ducks to only 6 points. But it never felt like we were in control of their offense.
We need the offense to continue to attack. With a shorthanded D-Line I think we'll probably need 28 to win this game.


20 yard gain on screen to Morris - that play is working well today.
11 yard run for Morris, who is making things happen this afternoon.
Rattay runs a draw on 3rd and 2, getting 7. Wow, unexpected play call.
3 runs inside the 10 leave us with 4th and goal at the 3. Ellis kicks a 21 yard field goal. 17-6, 9:18 left in the 3rd.

15 yard run for Jones - up to 82 on 15 carries now.
We force a fumble after a long pass play, but the Ducks recover. Ball at our 36 now.
Gain of 6 on 3rd and 10 from our 36. The 48 yard field goal attempt is short.

Morris goes over 100 yards on his 16th carry.
Voight makes another one handed grab. 25 yards on 3rd and 4 up to the Oregon 29.
Again Rattay goes to Voight on 3rd down and is rewarded as his receiver goes up high to pull down the pass and runs it in from 28 yards out. 24-6, 3:33 left in the 3rd.

Kenyatta Jones takes it upon himself to cut into our lead. Two carries - 13 and then 57 for a TD. 24-13, 2:22 left in the 3rd.

Ineligible WR takes away a 20+ yard gain.
Morris runs for 10, setting up a 3rd and 1 with the 5 bonus yards on facemask.
26 yards to Olsen - Rattay is really doing a good job right now.
29 yards to Martin - he is letting his WRs win one-on-one battles.
Rattay throws a screen to Morris - 1 yard TD pass. 31-13, 14:08 left in the game.

OLB Hank Swilling leaves with a foot injury. He is having a good season, hope this is not serious.
3 and out for Oregon.

Rattay continues to click on deep patterns. 26 to TE Fortunato.
Ellis is brought in to attempt a 50 yard field goal - wide left.

Jones gains 15 on 3rd and 10, squirting through a tiny hole. He now has 170 yards.
ILB Scott Wilson get an interception - we haven't picked off many passes this year, so nice to see one.

But Rattay throws an interception on the very next play - stupid ... lets run out the clock, guys.

Oregon gets 17 on a run by the fullback on 3rd and 13. Great work by their offensive line, who really should be abusing our guys more than they are.
WR Mike Voight blocks a 40 yard field goal attempt.

3 and out - we are just running clock here. Punt.
25 yard punt return sets them up at their 44.

TE Pat Nelson now has 6 grabs for 64 yards.
And Oregon gets a 7 yard TD on a screen to the 2nd TE. 31-20, 0:36 left to play.


Good win. Our defense has done a very good job in the 2nd half of games all year long.
