Oregon Rally From 20-6 Down to Beat Northwestern 34-26: Freshman Brandon Smith Sparks the Comeback
Oregon rallied from a 20-6 deficit to beat No. 20 Northwestern 34-26 on October 31 at Autzen Stadium in Eugene.
Aidan Chiles threw a 64-yard touchdown pass to Griffin Wilde and added a rushing score as the Wildcats built their lead, before Dakorien Moore's touchdown catch pulled Oregon closer by halftime.
With two running backs injured, freshman Brandon Smith totaled 114 scrimmage yards and scored the go-ahead touchdown on a fourth-down plunge in the fourth quarter. Dylan Raiola then hit Moore on a 75-yard touchdown — Moore finished with seven catches for 128 yards and two scores — and Oregon's defense recorded three fourth-quarter sacks to close it out.
Oregon improved to 5-3. (Reporting by Ducks Wire, USA Today)
