"Jones got stuck real hard," Oregon coach Rich Brooks said "Driscoll is a hell of a player and he really kissed him "There was a big swing on that play," Brooks continued "Everything was going our way when we got the ball, then it went right back the other way when we fumbled to them "If we would have taken it in for the touchdown we would have been in great shape.” Regardless of the turnovers, the Ducks still played a good game against a team which is the No. 1-ranked team in the nation. On Oregon’s first series, the Hnrlrc ♦rw-\U tho tir toff a n H marched 80 yards in 10 plays, highlighted by a 23-yard scoring pass from halfback Harry Billups to a leaping Osborne Thomas for the Ducks' first of fensive touchdown of the game — and the season. Brooks, understandably, felt that touchdown was special. "That first touchdown really opened a lot of people's eyes," Brooks said "Taking the ball right down the field and scoring did a lot for us." The Oregon offense, which had been the brunt of many jokes after the first three games of the season for its inability to score, may have set those jokes on the shelf for the remainder of the season Against the Hus kies, the Ducks proved they did have an offense The Ducks rolled up 307 yards — 162 on the ground and another 145 through the air — good for three touchdowns CnnlinuoH rm Padp 1 QA GROUP WCABLE Westinghouse Broadcasting and Cable Inc LAST CHANCE!
