Ducks Storm Past Cougars With Furious, Incredible Late Rally

In one of the most amazing, furious rallies by an Oregon football team in recent years, the Ducks stormed back from a 12-point deficit and scored 22 points over the last 6:49 to stun the Washington State Cougars 44 - 41 in Pullman, Washington. Bo Nix led Oregon going 33 - 44 passing for 428 yards, 3 touchdowns and 1 interception (which was returned 95 yards for a Cougar touchdown in the first half). Bucky Irving had 11 carries for 81 yards, and a key 21-yard reception on 4th and 2 to keep a late Oregon drive alive. Troy Franklin led 11 Oregon receivers who caught at least one pass - Franklin caught 5 passes for 137 yards and a 49-yard touchdown with 1:21 to play that put Oregon ahead for good 37 - 34.
