EUGENE, Ore. (AP) – It’s hard to say whether Oregon’s Darron Thomas was just messing with reporters when he insisted he wasn’t aware that he had thrown six touchdowns against Nevada. Maybe he was just trying to make the Wolf Pack feel better.
Either way, his broad smile when he said “I really didn’t know,” seemed to belie his words. And when asked if he’d ever had five, he didn’t hesitate to recall that he’d that many against New Mexico last year.
Thomas completed 13 of 19 passes for 295 yards and those six TDS in Oregon’s 69-20 victory over Nevada on Saturday at Autzen Stadium, the Ducks collectively sending the message that the season-opening loss to LSU was not going to define them.
