With Oregon down 28-24 at Utah with 2:18 remaining, true freshman quarterback Justin Herbert led the Ducks’ offense 75 yards down the field and into the endzone. The drive was capped off by a 17-yard touchdown pass from Herbert to Darren Carrington. The controversial play was reviewed and reversed in favor of the Ducks after initially being ruled incomplete. The win all but derails Utah’s hopes at a berth in the Pac-12 Championship, and gives Oregon its fourth win of the year, second in conference play.
