The AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season! We just had to get through that lull to start.” Oregon took nearly 20 minutes to gain its initial first down of the game as the Ducks started off slowly after last week’s emotional win over Colorado and with a showdown against No. 3 Oregon two years ago “They’re explosive obviously,” coach Troy Taylor said. You put an explosive offense on the field that much, they will make plays.” Stanford played keep-away early from the Ducks to take a 6-0 lead when Joshua Karty kicked his second field goal of the game on the first play of the second quarter. You’re playing with fire when you allow a team that is that talented to get as many opportunities in the second half.” THE TAKEAWAY Oregon: Once the Ducks got going, Stanford couldn’t slow them down.
