On 3rd and 11 with the backfield empty, a free blitzer sacked Dante Moore to force another punt, Indiana's fifth sack of the game.
The Ducks had little life and no pass protection. James Ferguson-Reynolds got off a good punt to the 13.
Boettcher made a nice stop. On 3rd and 2, Brandon Finney stepped in front of a pass by Mendoza and returned it for a 35-yard touchdown and a tie, a remarkable turn in the game, 20-20.
Mendoza hung a floater, much like a hanging curve in a baseball game. Freshman Finney made the first pick of his Oregon career.
