Oregon has a record of 10-0 straight up, 5-5 against the spread, and 4-6 over/under the total. Oregon ranks 13th for total offense, 15th for passing, 56th for rushing, and 19th for scoring.

Now, 10-0, the No.1 Oregon Ducks are still perfect. Starting with a high-flying offense led by Heisman Trophy candidate quarterback Dillon Gabriel. Also, there is an impressive, hard-hitting defense. The Ducks are on fire. Last week, they added their 10th win against the Maryland Terrapins at Autzen Stadium. The Ducks are hoping to continue their high level of dominance going into their final two-game stretch. However, there were some flaws in Oregon’s seemingly impenetrable armor.
However, the biggest issue for the Ducks is their unnecessary penalties. Oregon ended the game with 12 penalties, costing the team 95 yards. That was the most penalties they’ve accrued all season. Pre-snap penalties and false starts on offense hurt momentum for moving the ball. Meanwhile, defensively, costly mistakes gave Maryland multiple first downs on crucial plays.
However, a shining spot was quarterback Dillon Gabriel. Gabriel went 23-34 on passing with 183 yards and three touchdowns. Gabriel broke the NCAA career touchdown record in the third quarter, picking up 179 total touchdowns.
The punt return felt like an open audition for the Ducks. Following wide receiver Tez Johnson being out for an undefined amount of time with a right upper-body injury. Namely, Evan Stewart, Gary Bryant Jr, and Noah Whittington all had chances to field punt returns to varying degrees of success.
