BOULDER, Colo. — The Oregon football team extended its winning streak to eight games Saturday, and the Ducks had some fun doing it.
But in the race to reach the Pac-12 Championship Game, things are about to get serious.
Bo Nix accounted for five touchdowns — at least one each passing, rushing and receiving — and the Ducks also got touchdowns on offense from tackle Josh Conerly Jr. and linebacker Noah Sewell in a 49-10 victory Saturday over Colorado at Folsom Field. Oregon's first three touchdowns were a receiving score by Conerly on his birthday, a throwback pass from running back Bucky Irving to Nix, and a one-yard rushing TD by the linebacker Sewell.
