Overview
- Oregon rallied from a 14-0 deficit to beat Ohio State 41-28 on Saturday, with the Ducks scoring 38 unanswered points to secure the road victory.
- True freshman Dylan Raiola passed for 257 yards and helped spark the comeback while Dierre Hill Jr. rushed for two touchdowns and key explosive runs.
- A fourth‑and‑9 fake punt that saw linebacker Teitum Tuioti complete a long gain to Matayo Uiagalelei changed momentum and set up the Ducks’ first go‑ahead scoring drive.
- Ohio State freshman Luke Fahey threw for 360 yards, one touchdown and one interception, but the Buckeyes struggled with pass protection, penalties and red‑zone execution.
- With starting quarterbacks Julian Sayin out indefinitely and Dante Moore out for the season, both programs must continue with backups, leaving Oregon with momentum before hosting Michigan and leaving Ohio State’s playoff path highly uncertain.
