Oregon vs. BYU: Live updates, score, results, highlights, for Saturday's NCAA Football game
Live scores, highlights and updates from the Oregon vs. BYU football game
The Oregon Ducks will stay at home another week and welcome the BYU Cougars at 3:30 p.m. ET Sept. 17 at Autzen Stadium. The Ducks have the odds in their favor, so they'll need to guard against complacency.
Last week, Oregon turned the game against the Eastern Washington Eagles into a track meet and took the gold after outgaining them 604 yards to 187. Oregon steamrolled past Eastern Washington 70-14 at home. With Oregon ahead 42-7 at the half, the game was all but over already. QB Bo Nix had a stellar game for Oregon as he passed for five TDs and 277 yards on 33 attempts. Nix had some trouble finding his footing against the Georgia Bulldogs two weeks ago, so this was a step in the right direction.
Meanwhile, it may have taken double overtime to finish the job, but the Cougars ultimately got the result they were hoping for last week with a 26-20 victory over the Baylor Bears. BYU's success was spearheaded by the efforts of WR Chase Roberts, who threw one touchdown in addition to catching eight passes for one TD and 122 yards, and QB Jaren Hall, who passed for one TD and 261 yards on 39 attempts in addition to snatching one receiving TD.
BYU's defense was a presence as well, as it got past Baylor's offensive line to sack QB Blake Shapen four times for a total loss of 22 yards. It was a group effort with three guys contributing.
Their wins bumped Oregon to 1-1 and BYU to 2-0. Watch the contest and check back on CBS Sports to find out who keeps up the positive energy and who hits a stumbling block.
