Ducks win thriller: Describe Oregon's victory against Washington in 5 words or less

It was a back and forth game the entire way Saturday between the No. 17 Oregon Ducks and the No. 7 Washington Huskies at Autzen Stadium.

Even the score by quarters showed identical totals through regulation -- 10, 7, 7, 0 for each team. The game headed to overtime tied 24-24 after Washington's Peyton Henry missed wide right on a 37-yard field goal attempt as time expired.

The Huskies got the ball first in overtime, but the Oregon defense held rival UW to a short field goal. That paved the way for CJ Verdell's six-yard touchdown run that gave the Ducks a 30-27 overtime victory.
