The Holiday Bowl got started with a fly-over and fire works while our nations service men and women held the flag during the National Anthem.
Casey Matthews suffed OSU's first running play, taking down Kendall Hunter for no gain. The Ducks held Hunter to 37 yards on 13 carries, a 2.8 per carry average.
Nick Reed was
JJ was awesome in his last game as a Duck. Here he takes off on a Holiday Bowl record 76-yard TD run to keep Oregon close early. Notice who's throwing a block - none other than Jeremiah Masoli!
Speaking of Masoli - what more can you ask from the kid? Here he runs right through OSU safety Quinton Moore on his way to his second of three TDs. He was a well deserving Holiday Bowl Offensive MVP.
J-Will also had a strong game in his last as a Duck, with 3 catches for 52 yards and a TD. Here he nearly scores on a 31 yard catch and run.
Will Tukuafu and the Oregon defense held the Cowboys to 14 points over the last 3 quarters. Here he sacks QB Zac Robinson. Oregon hold OSU scoreless on 11 of 13 drives from the second quarter on.
Who would have thought this picture would have been possible after the first quarter? The two Jeremiah's prepared Bellotti's Gatorade bath...
...and for the second time in two games Oregon's all-time greatest coach was given the victory soaking he so well deserved. If it was indeed his last game as Oregon's head man, he went out in style.
Ra'Shon Harris and Phil Knight celebrated after the game. Harris went out with a bang with two tackles-for-loss and a sack as part of his five total tackles.
Nick Reed and a number of other Ducks celebrated with fans after the game in what was a joyous scene.
In front of a scoreboard that read Oregon 42 - Oklahoma State 31, JJ told reporters how blessed the team felt to honor Todd Doxey with a win...
...and his family clearly appreciated the Ducks for both playing well and keeping Todd's memory alive. Once a Duck, always a Duck.

Nick Reed was "held" without a sack, but that didn't stop him from getting to QB Zac Robinson on several occasions. Here he pounds him to the turf just after Robinson got a pass off.
