Follow all the action from Eugene as No. 11 Oregon hosts UCLA

Chip Kelly just walked by himself out to the 50 yard line and is taking pictures of the cardboard cutout section at Autzen that has some of the players he coached.

It wasn't pretty for @oregonfootball but they found a way. That's what championship cultures do. More tonight on @Pac12Network #HowGreatIsBall

Hard to polish that turd. Survive and advance, I guess. Hats off to UCLA playing short handed gave the Ducks all they could handle. Onto the Civi.... whatever the hell we’re gonna call it.

DUCKS MAKE THE STOP! #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/TlyGoLar5P
— Oregon Football (@oregonfootball) November 22, 2020

This is such a strange performance by Oregon's defense. They have two turnovers forced, one touchdown, some big stops, but then the complete opposite end of play. They've allowed huge gains, bad form in tackling, their persuit has been really poor, little QB pressure. Odd.
— Matt Prehm (@MattPrehm) November 21, 2020

Oregon has been manhandled at the line of scrimmage today.
— Andy Johnson (@TheDirtJohnson) November 21, 2020

Demetric Felton ran right through Oregon's defense from 11 yards out to score. Duck defense did not look up to the task on that drive.

UCLA has cut the lead to 38-35 with 3:43 to play. Bruins have two timeouts remaining.

Remember, UCLA needed a fourth down conversion there.
— Erik Skopil (@Erik_Skopil) November 21, 2020

Tyler Shough now Oregon's leading rusher on the day. #GoDucks
— Rob Moseley (@DuckFootball) November 21, 2020

Second straight three-and-out for the defense 😤

38-28 lead with 11:06 to play in Autzen. #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/aupjF6Rp3w
— Oregon Football (@oregonfootball) November 21, 2020

Duck drive stalls at the 25.

Camden Lewis trots out to try a 42-yard field goal. He misses it short.

That's big. Ducks lead remains at 38-28.

END OF 3RD QUARTER: UCLA 28, OREGON 38

TOUCHDOWN!@tylershough2 finds @HunterKampmoyer all alone in the end zone!

— Oregon Football (@oregonfootball) November 21, 2020

Welcome back, Hunter Kampmoyer.

Great RPO action from Shough to hit the senior for an easy six.

Big response drive from the Ducks who push their lead back to 10 at 38-28 after the Lewis PAT.

Ducks went 78 yards in five plays.
— Erik Skopil (@Erik_Skopil) November 21, 2020

2⃣ is ballin' out!

Another great catch by @2eraa gives him his first career 100-yard receiving game 👊 #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/F5H2R8n4BK

Oregon LB Noah Sewell injured when teammate falls on his leg. Carted off the field. Unfortunate incident to say the least. pic.twitter.com/Ji2sCXY6TJ

Keep fighting.

Oregon leads 31-28 midway through the third quarter. #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/xu6FPzSqiU

TOUCHDOWN!

Ducks go 75 yards on seven plays, capped by a 4-yard run from @Cjverdell_ 👊

Ducks lead 31-21. #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/3YQTSDye3y
— Oregon Football (@oregonfootball) November 21, 2020

CJ Verdell out of the doghouse and into the end zone.
— Ryan Thorburn (@By_RyanThorburn) November 21, 2020

This Devon Williams dude is pretty good.

Makes a few players miss to move the Ducks inside the UCLA 10-yard line.

Ducks threatening.
— Erik Skopil (@Erik_Skopil) November 21, 2020

Don't let up.

Second half is underway on ESPN2. #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/3TKVAF5Rel
— Oregon Football (@oregonfootball) November 21, 2020

CJ Verdell back in for first time since fumble
— James Crepea (@JamesCrepea) November 21, 2020

START OF 3RD QUARTER

One of the craziest way to end a half at Autzen Stadium - Bruins have 237 yards of total yards while the Ducks have 179

One of the telling storylines is the Ducks have only 34 rushing yards through two quarters - They've averaged over 200 per game
— Oregon Duck FB News (@DuckFBNews) November 21, 2020

Last week the Ducks scored a touchdown with three seconds left in the first half. Today, they close the half with a 58-yard pick six.

That's something else.
— Erik Skopil (@Erik_Skopil) November 21, 2020

HALFTIME: UCLA 21, OREGON 24

TOUCHDOWN!!!!

Jordan Happle picks it off and runs it back 58 yards to give Oregon a 24-21 lead at the half! #GoDucks

The Jesuit kid with his moment as Jordan Happle rips the floater and takes it back for pick-six #GoDucks
— Nick Krupke (@NickKrupke) November 21, 2020

Chase Griffin got murdered and Jordan Happle pick-six gives the Ducks the lead at halftime
— James Crepea (@JamesCrepea) November 21, 2020

Ducks cross midfield but the drive stalls and they punt.

UCLA ball, up 21-17, with 50 seconds left in the half and 90 yards to go. #GoDucks
— Rob Moseley (@DuckFootball) November 21, 2020

Tyler Shough's feet and legs make an appearance. One heckuva scamper there to pick up a first and extend this drive.
— Erik Skopil (@Erik_Skopil) November 21, 2020

Oregon REALLY misses Jevon Holland, Thomas Graham Jr. and Brady Breeze. Nick Pickett returns for 2nd half.
— Andrew Nemec (@AndrewNemec) November 21, 2020

YEAHHHH CHASE!!! GREAT THROW #GoBruins
— DTR (@DoriansTweets) November 21, 2020

Touchdown, Bruins. UCLA into the lead. Definitely giving the UO defense some issues in the first half. #GoDucks
— Rob Moseley (@DuckFootball) November 21, 2020

UCLA converts 3rd and 18 there. That's pretty brutal after two great plays just before it. Bruins over midfield.
— Erik Skopil (@Erik_Skopil) November 21, 2020

Huge momentum drive by Oregon to pull a lot of the numbers equal. To settle for FG is brutal after 13 plays for 70 yards and over 6:00
— James Crepea (@JamesCrepea) November 21, 2020

.@LewisCamden knocks it through 👊

Ducks retake the lead, 17-14, midway through the second quarter. #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/2aPkpCbkib
— Oregon Football (@oregonfootball) November 21, 2020

There's a UCLA scoop and score.

CJ Verdell loses it and UCLA's Qwuantrezz Knight is on it for the score.

Game tied at 14-14.

First half turnovers continue to be an issue for Oregon.
— Erik Skopil (@Erik_Skopil) November 21, 2020

Noah Sewell is the best player on the defense this season. And he’s a true freshman.
— Geoff Schwartz (@geoffschwartz) November 21, 2020

live look at Noah Sewell pic.twitter.com/zNbIs75oKJ
— Alek Arend (@alekarend) November 21, 2020

Noah Sewell is a DUDE.

Gets a sack of Chase Griffin and UCLA has a 3rd and 20
— Kevin Wade (@KwadeSays) November 21, 2020

UCLA has a 133-80 edge in total yards (95 to 1 in rushing yards) after the first quarter, but the Ducks cashed two turnovers in for touchdowns and lead 14-7.
— Ryan Thorburn (@By_RyanThorburn) November 21, 2020

Up seven after one in Autzen. #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/m4HcHvIQ0g
— Oregon Football (@oregonfootball) November 21, 2020

END OF 1ST QUARTER: UCLA 7, OREGON 14

UO will certainly take the turnovers, but UCLA is averaging 6.6 yards per carry and Griffin is 5-5. Tackling struggling still.
— Tyson Alger (@tysonalger) November 21, 2020

Gimme that 😤

Ducks force back-to-back fumbles, the first two takeaways of the year for the defense 👊 #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/kjivucxz3i
— Oregon Football (@oregonfootball) November 21, 2020

Coach Moorehead you a bad man‼️‼️
— Penei Sewell 🇦🇸 (@peneisewell58) November 21, 2020

I LOVE THIS FREAKING OFFENSE. GOD BLESS @BallCoachJoeMo!
— Geoff Schwartz (@geoffschwartz) November 21, 2020

Ducks have been waiting for the defensive takeaways. That's two in a row now for the Ducks, who force a fumble on the KO return.
— Tyson Alger (@tysonalger) November 21, 2020

TOUCHDOWN!

Ducks capitalize immediately on the takeaway as @tylershough2 hits @2eraa for six! #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/1va0tDjeGO
— Oregon Football (@oregonfootball) November 21, 2020

UCLA was moving the ball well. Then Noah Sewell forced a fumble, McKinley with a big return and then Shough finds Devon Williams in the back corner for the game's first score. Kick good. 7-0.
— Tyson Alger (@tysonalger) November 21, 2020

OUR BALL!@B1essah forces a fumble and @vmckinley3 picks it up and takes it to the UCLA 19! #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/cBIvBG7Trj
— Oregon Football (@oregonfootball) November 21, 2020

There's the first forced turnover of the season.

Noah Sewell knocks it out of Griffin's hands and Verone McKinley III returns it back to the 19. Ducks in business.
— Erik Skopil (@Erik_Skopil) November 21, 2020

Ducks drive near midfield but then a run stacked up at the line and a sack set up third-and-long. Williams got a good chunk back but Oregon still forced to punt.

Bruins take over again, and we're still scoreless. #GoDucks
— Rob Moseley (@DuckFootball) November 21, 2020

Jordan Happle starts in place of Nick Pickett after Pickett's targeting foul last week. Ducks looked a bit disorganized prior to the first snap and UCLA picks up decent yardage. #GoDucks
