So Oregon isn’t too crushed by that season-opening loss to LSU, it turns out. The Ducks aerated Nevada in the first half of their Week 2 matchup, putting up 41 points in short order.
Oregon Vs. Nevada, Halftime Score: Ducks Pouring It On In First Half
The first Oregon scoring drive took 3:43 to travel 79 yards on 11 plays, and ended with a failed two-point conversion. All five touchdowns that followed it came on drives that lasted 2:17 or less, and only one of those took more than six plays.
Darron Thomas has been very sharp, throwing for 226 yards and five touchdowns and adding 35 rushing yards to his tally, but Oregon’s spread running has been just as good. LaMichael James and De’Anthony Thomas have combined for 145 yards on 18 carries, and those two running backs and the Thomas who throws have each gashed Nevada’s defense for more than 20 yards on a single carry.
The bright side for Nevada? The Wolf Pack did score, once. That’s why the score’s 41-7 at halftime.
