Oregon Football, much like students in high school or college, faced a big test on Saturday with a spot in the conference title game on the line.

After getting through what felt like the difficult portion of the test, Oregon seemed to think they could coast through the rest of it–and it resulted in getting an F instead of an A.

On today’s episode of Locked On Ducks, I (painfully) go through how it all came crashing down after Oregon built a 21-point lead late in the third quarter in Corvallis.

EVERYthing that had to go wrong DID go wrong in that fourth quarter—but it was about more than that.

With this loss keeping Oregon from a shot at a Pac-12 Championship game, it’s one that stings for Duck fans like few games have over the years.

Where does this loss to the Beavs rank amongst the worst losses in recent memory for Oregon Football?
