Unmitigated Disaster: Utes Massacre Ducks In Eugene

At Eugene, Oregon:

Quarterback Travis Wilson returned from a shoulder sprain he suffered two weeks ago and completed 18 of 30 passes for 227 yards and four touchdowns while carrying the ball for 100 and another score on Saturday night as the Utah Runnin' Utes (4-0 overall, 1-0 in Pac-12 play; #18 in the Associated Press poll, #17 in the USA Today/Coaches rankings) skewered the home-standing Oregon Ducks (2-2, 1-3; #13 in both AP and Coaches polls) 62-20 in the Pac-12 Conference opener for both teams.  

It was the Ducks' most lopsided home defeat since 1977 (54-0 to Washington); the 62 were the most Oregon ever surrendered in Eugene.

Looks like the Ducks can forget about a repeat College Football Playoff appearance this season.
