PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) --- Dante Moore passed for 290 yards and four touchdowns
and No. 8 Oregon followed its first loss of the season with a 56-10 romp over
Rutgers on Saturday night in the first meeting between the schools.
A week after falling 30-20 to Indiana at home, Oregon (6-1, 3-1 Big Ten)
extended the nation's longest road winning streak to 10 games.
Noah Whittington ran for 125 yards and two TDs and the Ducks piled up 750 total
yards --- 415 rushing and 335 passing --- for the most yards against a Power 4
school this season.
The Scarlet Knights (3-4, 0-4) have not beaten a ranked team in 16 years, the
longest active streak in college football. They managed just 202 total yards
with quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis was constantly under pressure. He was 8 of
25 for 79 yards, threw two interceptions and was sacked three times.
Oregon had eight plays of 30 yards or longer.
The takeaways Oregon: After a sub-par performance against Indiana, Moore made it look easy against the overmatched Scarlet Knights. Rutgers: After two consecutive bowl bids, the Scarlet Knights are in jeopardy of missing the postseason. Up next Oregon: Hosts Wisconsin on Oct. 25. Rutgers: At Purdue on Oct. 25. ---- Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up here.
