Even though Week 2 is last Saturday’s news, that’s not stopping Oregon Ducks head coach Mario Cristobal from having some fun.
Cristobal changed his Twitter account to read “I am the Head Football Coach at THE University of Oregon” as a joke towards everyone saying “THE Ohio State Buckeyes.”
Cristobal’s Ducks went into Columbus last Saturday and shocked the country as they beat the Buckeyes, who were No. 3 in the country prior to that loss. Anthony Brown had 236 yards passing with 2 touchdown passes, but it was their running game that gashed the OSU defense all game long.
CJ Verdell was a one-man wrecking crew as he finished with 20 carries for 161 yards and 2 touchdowns. He also averaged over 8 yards a carry for the game, which is unheard of against a defense as good as the Buckeyes. Travis Dye also had a good day as he finished with 8 carries for 43 yards, plus a touchdown.
We’ll have to see if Cristobal changes his bio after this Saturday when Oregon plays Stony Brook in Eugene at 7:30 p.m. ET.
