How Oregon Fell Short of a Comeback Win

For the better part of a decade, the University of Oregon football program has been a benchmark for success. Since 2000 the Ducks have either won or shared the PAC12 Title six times, two National Title Game appearances and a stigma of being able to score at will. Most of the Ducks major success has come since 2009 under coaches Chip Kelly and now with Mark Helfrich. Just two years ago in 2014, Oregon lost the National Championship Game to Ohio State 42-20 and that was just three years removed from a loss to Auburn 22-19 in the 2011 title game.
