Can Oregon Ducks prevent Washington State’s Cameron Ward from successfully extending plays?
Cameron Ward was some of the intriguing transfers within the offseason. An FCS All-American at Incarnate Phrase who threw for 4,648 yards and 47 touchdowns, Ward moved as much as the FBS along with his coach, Eric Morris, to develop into the beginning quarterback and offensive coordinator, respectively, at Washington State.
Up to now Ward is finishing 65.4% of his passes for 727 yards with eight touchdowns and three interceptions for the Cougars (3-0), statistics which can be effectively shy of the gaudy numbers he had final season. It’s going to be as much as No. 15 Oregon (2-1) to maintain Ward contained and forestall him from a breakout efficiency Saturday (1 p.m., FOX) at Martin Stadium.
