The Oregon Ducks had a magical season this year, with the team’s quarterback, Bo Nix, leading the way. Nix was a freshman phenom, leading the Ducks to a 9-3 record and a Pac-12 North Division title. He was the first true freshman quarterback to start for the Ducks since 1983, and he made an immediate impact. He threw for 2,242 yards and 17 touchdowns, while also rushing for 486 yards and six touchdowns.
Unfortunately, the Ducks’ magical season came to an end with a loss to the Auburn Tigers in the Pac-12 Championship game. The game was a back-and-forth affair, with Nix throwing for 285 yards and two touchdowns. However, it wasn’t enough to overcome the Tigers, who won the game 27-21.
The loss was a tough pill to swallow for the Ducks and their fans, as they had high hopes for Nix and the team this season. Nix had been a spark plug for the Ducks all season long, and it was disappointing to see his season end on such a sour note.
Despite the loss, Nix had an impressive freshman season and has a bright future ahead of him. He showed poise and leadership throughout the season, and he has all the tools to be a successful quarterback in the Pac-12 for years to come.
The Ducks will look to build on this season’s success next year, and they will be hoping that Nix can lead them back to the Pac-12 Championship game. It will be interesting to see how Nix develops over the offseason and if he can take his game to the next level in 2020.
