BERKELEY, Calif. — Bo Nix accounted for six touchdowns and the Oregon football team won its seventh game in a row Saturday, as the Ducks remained the frontrunners in the Pac-12 Conference with a 42-24 victory at California.
Oregon's defense limited Cal to 74 rushing yards and 4-of-15 third-down conversions, helping the Ducks overcome a slow start offensively before scoring 28 straight points from late in the second quarter to midway through the fourth. Christian Gonzalez had eight tackles and blocked a field goal to lead the UO defense, DJ Johnson had two sacks on his birthday, and both Bryan Addison and Trikweze Bridges intercepted passes.
