No. 12 Oregon vs. Georgia State - Postgame Notebook
Sept. 17, 2015
•Taylor Alie had the fifth-longest run and fourth-longest rushing touchdown in UO history on an 87-yard keeper in the fourth quarter. It was the longest run by a QB since Bob Smith's 92-yard scamper in 1938.
•Tyree Robinson recorded his first career interception, a 41-yard “pick-6” for his first career touchdown on Georgia State's opening drive. He added another later in the first half.
•The Ducks scored two non-offensive touchdowns and now have an FBS-high 35 such scores since 2010. Robinson's pick-6 was the first by a Duck since Avery Patterson and Derrick Malone Jr. each returned interceptions for touchdowns vs. Texas in the 2013 Alamo Bowl.
•Juwaan Williams had the first forced fumble of his career and Arrion Springs had his first fumble recovery.
•Jeff Lockie made the first start of his career and set career highs in completions (23), attempts (31), passing yards (228) and passing touchdowns (2).
•True freshman cornerback Ugo Amadi made his first start.
•Royce Freeman recorded the eighth 100-yard rushing game of his career. He carried 10 times for 101 yards and one score - all in the first half.
•Byron Marshall has now made a reception in 19 straight games.
•Joe Walker scored the second touchdown on a fumble return of his career, scooping and scoring from 52 yards out. Walker also has a 99-yard return at Utah in 2014 on his resume.
•The game marked the 12th time since 2009 that the Ducks have eclipsed 60 points - second-most behind Baylor (15) in the FBS.
•This was the first meeting between the Ducks and Panthers.
•Aidan Schnieder made a career-high four field goals (26, 40, 40, 40) in as many attempts - all in the first half. It was UO's most field goals in a single half since five in the first half vs. Montana in 2005.
•The Ducks had season highs in sacks (4) and tackles for loss (11).
