Oregon started with the ball and went right to work It took 32 seconds for Justin Herbert to find Johnny Johnson III for a 73-yard touchdown to make it 7-0 Ducks. The Oregon Defense did their job on Arizona’s first drive forcing a three and out. Both teams exchanged possessions without scoring, but the Ducks’ next scoring possession came before the end of the first quarter.
Justin Herbert continued to mix the run and pass options including Spencer Webb and Juwan Johnson. Mycah Pittman caught a pass at the two-yard line and was injured on the play. His arm was landed on awkwardly by an Arizona defender.
