The game was marked by the Oregon Ducks' offensive dynamism and defensive solidity. The Ducks amassed a total of 437 yards, with their passing game contributing significantly to this tally. Quarterback play was pivotal as they completed 16 passes for 309 yards, including a remarkable longest pass completion of 66 yards which also resulted in the longest touchdown.

Special teams also played their part; although one field goal attempt was missed, kickoffs were notably strong with four touchbacks from six kickoffs and an average distance covered impressively. In terms of ball security, the Ducks maintained discipline with only one fumble during the game which they did not lose.


Defensively, Oregon showed its prowess by sacking Spartan quarterbacks four times for a loss of 22 yards and intercepting two passes that were returned for nine yards combined. This defensive pressure contributed to limiting San Jose State's scoring opportunities throughout each quarter.
