The #11 Oregon Ducks (3-0) survived a turnover-riddled shootout against the UCLA Bruins (1-2), ultimately winning by a score of 38 to 35.

Tyler Shough finished 19-of-30 with 334 yards through the air and three touchdown passes and Dorian Thompson-Robinson’s backup threw for 195 yards on 19-of-31 passing, one touchdown and two interceptions.

Demetric Felton was the star of the show, finishing with 167 yards and two touchdowns on 34 carries, while the Oregon rushing attack was held to just 88 yards on the same amount of carries. Luckily, Oregon’s passing attack made up for the ground game by racking up 334 yards and three scores. Devon Williams led all receivers with 123 yards in the air on six receptions, though Hunter Kampmoyer also impressed with his five receptions for 70 yards and a touchdown.

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 Demetric Felton in the end zone, then tied the contest with a 20-yard scoop-&-score off a fumble from CJ Verdell.

Travis Dye helped fuel an Oregon drive towards a short Camden Lewis field goal to reclaim the lead, however, Griffin put together an impressive drive that included a conversion on 3rd-and-18 and a 32-yard touchdown pass to tight end Greg Dulcich.

The UCLA defense was able to hold off Oregon’s final drive of the half and a red-hot Griffin tested his luck by trying a deep-shot downfield with six seconds left in the game. Fortunately for Duck fans, pressure from Brandon Dorlus enabled Jordan Happle to take the bad pass 58 yards to the house for the 24-21 lead.

Oregon appeared to be back on track after a 75-yard drive ended with a short touchdown run from CJ Verdell, but UCLA answered with a 75-yard touchdown drive of their own, finishing with Brittain Brown in the end zone.

Once again, Oregon turned a turnover into points when Verone McKinley picked off Griffin, and tight end Hunter Kampmoyer caught his first touchdown of the season on his first catch of the season to cap off a 78-yard drive from the Ducks.

A missed 43-yard field goal attempt from Camden Lewis kept it a 38-28 game in the fourth quarter, until Felton erupted for his second score of the day—an 11-yard touchdown run that left 3:43 in the game. Oregon was forced to punt on their next drive, up by only three points with just over a minute remaining, but the Duck defense managed to narrowly hold on for the lead in the final seconds.

UCLA will play Arizona at home next week, while the Ducks take on the Beavers—who just defeated Cal, 31 to 27—next week in Corvallis at 4 PM.
