No. 6 Oregon Grinds Past Wisconsin 21-7 in Rain as Davison Scores Twice

Coaches expect Dante Moore to be fine as the Ducks enter a bye before visiting Iowa.

Overview

  • Oregon moved to 7-1 overall and 4-1 in the Big Ten with a 21-7 home win, while Wisconsin fell to 2-6 and 0-5 in conference play.
  • Freshman Jordon Davison rushed for 102 yards and touchdowns of 3 and 20 yards, jump-starting a 99-yard drive late in the first half.
  • Quarterback Dante Moore left in the third quarter with an apparent face injury; backup Brock Thomas went 4-for-4 and threw a 1-yard TD to Gernorris Wilson.
  • In rainy, field-position conditions, Oregon leaned on its ground game for 203 of its 335 yards, a far cry from last week’s 750-yard outburst at Rutgers.
  • Wisconsin, depleted by injuries to multiple starters, snapped an 11-quarter scoreless streak with a late TD but mustered just 196 yards in its sixth straight loss.
