Ty Burrell on Oregon's sideline prior to the game against the Kansas State Wildcats during the 2013 Fiesta Bowl at University of Phoenix Stadium.
After struggling to a 3-3 start and 1-2 in the Pac-12, fans of the unranked Oregon Ducks football could use a little encouragement.
"Modern Family" actor/comedian Ty Burrell aka Phil Dunphy was up for the challenge. Perhaps the Oregon native is just paying a debt for sideline access he received at the Fiesta Bowl in 2013 during better days for the program.
