The Oregon Ducks had a big win on Saturday night, defeating the Arizona State Sun Devils 49-13. It was a dominant performance from the Ducks, with quarterback Justin Herbert leading the way. Herbert threw for 404 yards and six touchdowns, both of which were career highs. He also completed 25 of his 33 pass attempts, giving him a completion percentage of 75.8%.
The Ducks started off strong, scoring two touchdowns in the first quarter to take a 14-0 lead. They continued to dominate in the second quarter, scoring another two touchdowns to take a 28-3 lead into halftime. The Sun Devils were able to get on the board in the third quarter with a field goal, but the Ducks responded with two more touchdowns to take a 42-6 lead into the fourth quarter. The Sun Devils were able to score one more touchdown in the fourth quarter, but it was too little too late as the Ducks cruised to the 49-13 victory.
Herbert was the star of the show for the Ducks, throwing for 404 yards and six touchdowns. He was able to spread the ball around, completing passes to eight different receivers. His favorite target was Johnny Johnson III, who caught seven passes for 128 yards and two touchdowns.
The Ducks defense also played well, holding the Sun Devils to just 13 points and forcing three turnovers. They were able to put pressure on Arizona State quarterback Jayden Daniels throughout the game and sacked him four times.
The win was a big one for the Ducks, who improved to 6-1 on the season. They will look to keep their momentum going as they travel to take on USC next week. With Herbert playing at an elite level, the Ducks could be a force to be reckoned with in the Pac-12 this season.
