Washington State’s streak against the Ducks died Saturday night.
But boy did the Cougars put up a fight. After WSU scored to take the lead with a fourth-down touchdown pass with a minute left, Oregon responded, winning when freshman Camden Lewis snuck in a 26-yard field goal just inside the right goal post on the game’s final play to give the Ducks a 37-35 win.
The oddsmakers predicted an easy win for No. 11 Oregon over Washington State at Autzen Stadium, making the Ducks a two-touchdown favorite, but there were reasons for the Cougars to be optimistic, starting with their four straight wins over the Ducks, including two at Autzen.
