Social media reacts to Oregon’s dominant 49-22 blowout over Arizona Wildcats
The Oregon Ducks have some demons that tend to come out to play whenever they travel down to the desert and face the Arizona Wildcats.
Those demons were nowhere to be found on Saturday night in Tucson.
Oregon was dominant against the Wildcats from start to finish, ultimately winning by a score of 49-22. The rushing attack for the Ducks was spectacular, racking up a total of 306 yards and 7 touchdowns on the ground, and the defense was everything you could have asked for against a dangerous Arizona passing attack. The Wildcats finished the game with only 241 yards through the air, turning the ball over 3 times.
After all of the hardships that Oregon has experienced against Arizona over the years, fans certainly enjoyed a stress-free blowout against the Wildcats. Here are some of the best reactions to the game on Twitter.
A new Pac-12 Power Balance?
My sense for #Pac12 …
Best offense: UCLA
Best defense: WSU
Best team: Oregon— Jon Wilner (@wilnerhotline) October 9, 2022

Early statement from Oregon
On a day when Utah lost, Washington lost, and USC is in a dog fight with the Cougars, the Ducks are making a statement.

Dominate the middle 8
Announcers talking a lot about Oregon's ability to win the "middle 8" this year. Led me to look up the numbers. It's pretty remarkable.
On the season, Oregon has outscored opponents 69-14 in the final 4:00 of 2Q, first 4:00 of 3Q.
Take away the UGA game, that number is 66-0.

Is that good?
Oregon is averaging 10 yards per play against Arizona. I think that is very good.

A new era of Oregon football
It’s very satisfying watching this Ducks team putting the beat down to an inferior opponent in the desert. This is clearly a new era. #GoDucks

Remaining demons?
So if Oregon gets this done tonight in Tucson, what other Demons do the Ducks need to exorcise?
Neutral site games?

Put 60 on these suckas for all the fallen soldiers that lost here

The record books
Oregon has now run for seven (7) rushing touchdowns tonight. The last time that happened was 2013 against Nicholls State.
In 2017, Oregon ran for nine (9) touchdowns against Southern Utah. So, still some work to be done.
