The Oregon Ducks started the 2023 season on a strong note, delivering an 81-7 win over the Portland State Vikings at home in Autzen Stadium.

A big part of their strong offensive showing was senior quarterback Bo Nix, who finished the day throwing for 287 yards and three touchdowns, completing 23 of his 27 passes.

Nix distributed the ball efficiently and accurately and was eventually replaced by Ty Thompson and Austin Novosad when the game was out of reach.

Next up is a big test for Nix and the Oregon offense, as new offensive coordinator Will Stein returns to his home state of Texas to face the Texas Tech Red Raiders.
