EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — While many ponder the health of quarterback Marcus Mariota’s left knee, Oregon’s focus is solely on moving on.
The sixth-ranked Ducks are eager to bury last week’s loss to Stanford. The first step will come on Saturday when they host Utah.
There’s no doubt that the 26-20 loss to the Cardinal spoiled the Ducks’ shot at a spot in the national championship game. Depending on how the rest of the season plays out, it may have also cost them a place in the Pac-12 championship game.
But if the Ducks take care of their own business and win out, they’ll still likely play in their fifth straight BCS bowl game, probably the Fiesta or the Orange.
