Second Half Thread: Chaotic Turnover Battle in Eugene, Ducks 24 - Bruins 21

After nearly overcoming a four-turnover performance against Colorado and clobbering an unprepared Golden Bear squad, Chip Kelly and his Bruins traveled to Autzen stadium to take on the undefeated Ducks.

Just like in week one of PAC-12 play, Oregon’s opponent was forced to switch to their backup quarterback due to contract tracing procedure for COVID-19. Redshirt freshman Chase Griffin—a former three-star from Round Rock, Texas—made his first collegiate start.

Oregon took a quick 14-point lead when a pair of Bruin fumbles resulted in touchdown passes to Devon Williams and Travis Dye. But UCLA responded by marching down the field in a 6-play, 52-yard touchdown drive that finished with Demetri Felton in the end zone, then tied the contest with a 20-yard scoop-&-score off a fumble from CJ Verdell.
