STANFORD, Calif. — Oregon's defense held an opponent without a touchdown for the third straight game, and Justin Herbert set a UO record for touchdowns in a three-game span as the No. 16 Ducks beat Stanford, 21-6, on Saturday in Stanford Stadium.
A year after squandering a lead and losing in overtime to Stanford at home, the Ducks got three touchdown passes from Herbert and kept the Cardinal out of the end zone all evening. The UO defense put together a three-game stretch without allowing a touchdown for the first time since 1935, and Herbert set a school record by completing 13 touchdown passes in wins over Nevada, Montana and the Cardinal.
