Arizona has just thrown their 2nd interception in the red zone (3rd total in the game) with around 8:30 left of the 3rd. Oregon leads 24-10.
 
Oregon playing bend but don't break defense.

You hate to watch it as a fan, but the strategy has paid off, just like it did against tOSU.
 
Do they measure a QB slide from where he begins the slide?
 
TD Arizona. Oregon now leads 24-19 with 1:39 left of 3rd.
 
Oregon St. is beating the shit out of USC on FS1 right now.
 
Yikes...

Bad football being played tonight. Hopefully Oregon can finish

I like that. I have seen on one of those NFL shows where they showed how Peyton Manning was great at the QB slide. One clip they showed was where he was going down the sideline (which makes me now wonder how he ever got out there) and needed 3-4 yards for a first down and he did a QB slide for 5-6 yards. Ever since then, I thought it should be measured from where he began the slide.

I am not a big fan of the slide.

I'd be fine with it if you could clobber the slider.

I like how they say how it is a safety thing, but if they get hit, it is the most unsafe position you can be in. You take your own base away so if you get hit, your head hits the ground. You loosen your muscles, so it is easier to get internal damage. I am all for lowering your shoulder or go out of bounds.

Of course, if the defender is far enough away, then the slide is fine. Far too often, it is a trap to get 15 yards.
 
I think Oregon got down there quicker than that returner that threw the ball expected.
 
Announcers:

"It hasn't been that quiet here (Autzen) all night"

Oregon has the ball, dummies.
 
I think for Oregon, instead of scoring quickly, they should just take time off before scoring.

Oregon needs to figure out how to get more downfield passing options. Tougher opponents are going to play press coverage and stack against the run.
 
I think that Pick-6 sealed it.
 
Ugly game but that should do it
 
Would like to see the defense hold up and not give up any more points.
