Eugene, OR (SportsNetwork.com) – Marcus Mariota had another huge game for
Oregon, throwing three touchdown passes and adding another on the ground, to
lead the third-ranked Ducks to a 44-10 rout of Colorado on Saturday.
Mariota continued his Heisman campaign with 323 passing yards and 73 rushing
yards for the Ducks (10-1, 7-1 Pac-12), who have won six straight since their
lone loss of the season against Arizona on Oct. 2.
Royce Freeman led the Oregon ground attack with 105 yards and a pair of
touchdowns.
The Buffaloes (2-9, 0-8) used two quarterbacks but could not find success
through the air. Jordan Gehrke and Sefo Liufau combined to complete just 16-
of-32 passes for 105 yards. Christian Powell led Colorado in rushing with 51
yards on five carries.
Oregon outgained Colorado 597-226.
