Mercier: Jordan Burch and Terrance Ferguson stepped up for a depleted Oregon team against the Terrapins
The No. 1 Oregon Ducks (10-0, 7-0 Big Ten) and the Maryland Terrapins (4-5, 1-5 Big Ten) faced off for the first time on a cloudy Saturday evening at Autzen Stadium. It wasn’t the cleanest of games for the Ducks. They still took care of business thanks to defensive end Jordan Burch, who forced a fumble resulting in an Oregon touchdown and a swing of momentum, as well as Terrance Ferguson, who made six catches for 35 yards, including the 178th touchdown of Dillon Gabriel's career to tie the NCAA all-time record.
Leading up to the Michigan game, Burch had missed three consecutive games harboring a knee injury and even during the game against the Wolverines he looked banged up.
Coming into the game last against Maryland he was said to be full strength. His presence made life tough for Terrapin quarterback Billy Edwards Jr.
Despite Oregon having the lead, Maryland had the momentum throughout the first quarter…

Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel became the all-time touchdown leader in NCAA Division I football history with now 180, passing Case Keenum en route to a 39-18 Ducks victory.
No. 1 Oregon (10-0, 7-0 Big Ten) took down a pass-heavy Maryland team in what was the first-ever meeting between the two programs. This is now Oregon’s fourth consecutive win by 20 points or more, yet Saturday night’s performance was not exactly perfect by 2024 Oregon Duck standards.
“Nice to walk away with a victory,” Oregon coach Dan Lanning said. “That being said, I feel like we can play a whole lot better and I think everyone probably saw moments of that.”
The Ducks had a season-high 12 penalties against them, accumulating to 95 total penalty yards allowed. Their previous high was nine penalties way back in the second game of the season against Boise State.
“I definitely feel like early on we started off fast,” senior…
Read MoreHardrict: Nate Bittle Can Do It All
On Friday night, the Oregon Ducks men’s basketball team defeated the Montana Grizzlies 79-48.
Oregon is at its best when dominating the paint. Friday's leading scorer Nate Bittle can really do it all. The seven-foot senior center was just absolutely unstoppable against Montana. He was not only a force inside but also knocked down three of the Ducks’ eight baskets from downtown in the game. Bittle led the game in scoring with 17 points on 6-for-12 from the field and 3-for-5 from behind the arc.
Bittle has been unguardable in the paint in both games for the Ducks. Without Bittle, Oregon would not score in the paint as much as they do now. On top of Bittle’s effectiveness inside, his 3-point shot has improved over the years with his sophomore season being the best at 34 percent.
After not making a 3-pointer in the first game against UC Riverside, Bittle made three out of five attempts on Friday night versus Montana…

The team had been cold from downtown all night, but with less than a minute to halftime, Jadrian Tracey and Nate Bittle fired up the crowd at Matthew Knight Arena with back-to-back 3-pointers. The Oregon Ducks (2-0) went into the break fired up after a dominating performance over the Montana Grizzlies (1-1) with a 24-point lead.
Both teams came into the game with Monday night wins. The Ducks beat the UC Riverside Highlanders 91-76 at home, while the Grizzlies defeated the Hawaii Hilo Vulcans 92-61 in Missoula, Montana. The Grizzlies also played a home exhibition game versus the Division II Saint Martin’s Saints 82-54 on Oct. 22.
After two clock-related disruptions, the Grizzlies drew first blood through a Money Williams 3-pointer. The first few minutes were even but the Ducks went on a 10-0 run to solidify a double-digit lead. Montana went cold and didn't score…

MBB STORY: Oregon Starts 1-0 Behind a Big Night From Kwame Evans Jr.
The Oregon Ducks (1-0) got their season underway by defeating the UC Riverside Highlanders (0-1), 91-76. Despite looking shaky at times, Oregon was able to pull through late and win by double digits. Leading all scorers was sophomore forward Kwame Evans Jr. with 23 points. He was 8-15 from the field with six rebounds. Brandon Angel, TJ Bamba and the veteran Nate Bittle also scored in double figures.
1st HALF
Thanks to strong shooting from UC Riverside, the game started off a lot closer than Duck fans might have wanted. The first three baskets for the Highlanders were all 3-pointers. The game remained close until the 8-minute mark. The score was tied 28-all at the media timeout, then the Ducks went on an 8-0 run over the next few minutes. They continued to pull away and had a 15-point advantage heading into the break.
Oregon’s strengths and weaknesses were obvious from the jump. In this…
