Boise St. loses No. 9 Oregon holds off California 24-17
3rd straight
home game
By ANNE M. PETERSON
Associated Press
EUGENE — Quarterback Anthony
Brown shut out the noise to lead Oregon
to a fourth-quarter comeback, then let the
defense seal a victory over California.
Brown scored on an 11-yard keeper
with 4:50 left and the ninth-ranked Ducks
held off surprisingly tenacious Cal 24-17
on Friday night, Oct. 15.
The Golden Bears took a 17-10 lead
early in the fi nal quarter, but Brown
answered with a 20-yard touchdown pass
to Jaylon Redd to tie it. The Ducks (5-1,
2-1 Pac-12) pulled in front on Brown’s
scamper into the end zone.
Cal threatened on the ensuing posses-
sion. The Golden Bears got to the Oregon
3 after Chase Garbers’ fourth-down pass
to Kekoa Crawford preserved the drive,
but his fourth-and-2 attempt with just 2
seconds left fell incomplete.
Oregon was coming off a bye following
an overtime loss at Stanford. The rebound
win was the Ducks’ 16th straight victory
at Autzen Stadium.
Travis Dye ran for 145 yards and a
score as Oregon leaned on him in the
absence of CJ Verdell, who was injured
against Stanford and is out for the season.
Brown threw for 244 yards and a
touchdown, while rushing for 44 yards
and another score. But he faced boos from
the Autzen crowd earlier in the game as
Oregon’s offense sputtered.
“He’s a great leader, he’s willing to step
up in those big moments and he’s not
afraid to shy away from those moments.
He shows that time and time again,” said
offensive lineman Ryan Walk. “We saw
that tonight, when the going was getting
tough there he stepped up, grabbed the of-
fense, he said, ‘We’re going to get this thing
right, let’s get it going.’”
California (1-5, 0-3) has not defeated an
FBS opponent this season — the team’s
lone win came against Sacramento State.

per game) and ranked third in passing
yards (249 per game), threw for 242 yards
and two touchdowns.
Cal, also coming off a bye, defeated
Oregon last season in Berkeley, 21-17,
with Garbers accounting for a pair of
touchdowns, one via pass and the other on
a keeper.
“It’s very frustrating, extremely frus-
trating, so there’s no other adjectives to
use, it’s very frustrating,” Cal coach Justin
Wilcox said.
Verdell, who led Oregon with 406 yards
rushing and six touchdowns, injured his
left leg during the Ducks’ 31-24 overtime
loss to Stanford. Bennett Williams, who
had three interceptions this season, broke
his leg in practice before the game and
was also out for the season.
Camden Lewis’ 49-yard fi eld goal gave
the Ducks the early lead, but Garbers
answered with a 9-yard touchdown pass
to Jake Tonges.
Oregon looked out of sorts at times on
offense. The Ducks were driving late in
the second quarter before Kris Hutson
fumbled on the Cal 11 and the Golden
Bears recovered.
Oregon went up 10-7 on Dye’s 11-yard
touchdown run and took the lead into
halftime. Cal tied it in the third quarter on
Dario Longhetto’s 45-yard fi eld goal.
Don’t text and
drive... you

Garbers found Gavin Reinwald with a
4-yard touchdown pass to give the Golden
Bears a 17-10 lead.
“We went down and scored there late
in the game. And then came back and
they got a big kick return on us and then
went right down and scored and tied
it up,” Wilcox said. “So the momentum
seemed to shift a little bit. I thought the
guys stayed with it and kept competing
really in every phase, and that gave us a
chance to win the game in the end, but un-
fortunately we didn’t quite get it done.”
The takeaway
California: Wide receiver Nikko Remi-
gio and offensive lineman Will Craig were
back from injuries this week. ... Garbers
has 43 career touchdown passes, tying
him for eighth all-time at Cal with Aaron
Rodgers.
Oregon: Oregon was without its
marching band for the game because of
a coronavirus outbreak among members.
The university said 14 members tested
positive. ... The Ducks saw the return
of offensive coordinator Joe Moorhead,
who missed the game against Stanford be-
cause of illness. ... Defensive end Kayvon
Thibodeaux played the second half after
sitting out the fi rst because of a targeting
penalty at Stanford.
Counting on Travis
Cristobal was pleased with the way
Dye stepped up in Verdell’s absence.
“His style of play, his energy, his leader-
ship, which has really stood out all week
long, made a tremendous impact. He was
our guy that spoke to the team before the
game as well, and his message was strong,
and from the heart, and I think it really
carried through and showed up in the
fourth quarter,” Cristobal said.
