In a highly anticipated B1G Ten game the #9 Wolverines were outplayed by the #21 Ducks. Oregon's fast paced Offense miraculously took advantage of the time of possession in which they had a whopping 3 Quarters of Possession.
Michigan opened their first drive from their own 10 yard line in which Donovan Edwards broke free for a 90 yard run to paydirt to give Michigan their only lead of the game, Edwards ran well (9 carries 162 yards and 2 touchdowns). Michigan's Offense was unable to get much going in the air (Orji 9/18 114 yards 2 Interceptions). Due to how quickly they fell behind, they had to rely on throwing the ball. The Wolverines Defense was unable to force many stops on the day.
Coach Phreakk was disappointed in the way his team played and gave credit to Coach Shel for controlling the clock for 3 quarters of play.
Oregon was able to hold serve at home against a tough Michigan Wolverine squad. Oregon started slow, punting on their 1st possession. Then in Michigan's first play from scrimmage, RB Donovan Edwards broke off a run for a 90 yard TD.
Oregon did a good job settling in, and the next biggest play came with Oregon up 10-7 late in the half. Nikko Reed intercepted an Orji pass and return it for 48 yards, giving Michigan great field possession. Oregon would waste no time scoring on a deep ball to go up 17-7 at half.
From there, Oregon would slowly build that lead to 27-14 after 3.
The defense continued its great play keeping Michigan from putting points on the board, and the offense added 2 late field goals for a 33-14.
Oregon dominated time of possession with a consistent run game and efficient passing game. Oregon amassed 3 separate 10 play drives, had 21 1st downs to Michigan's 11, and ran 58 plays to 33. Oregon’s offense was able to stay on the field while also keeping Michigan to short drives and off the field.
