The Ducks controlled the game and won convincingly, 45-24. While watching the game yesterday afternoon, it was hard not to think about “The Pick.” Arguably the most iconic moment …
I was starting to get worried that too many teams would finish the season undefeated, until today. As the season goes on we are finally getting to see the upsets.
