Stony Brook Seawolves vs Oregon Ducks Match Player Stats On Sep 18, 2021

Freshman quarterback Ty Thompson threw the first two touchdown passes of his college career after taking over for injured Anthony Brown in the third quarter, helping No. 4 Oregon pull away from visiting Stony Brook 48-7 in a non-conference game Saturday night.

In a game delayed 37 minutes by lightning, the Ducks (3-0) nabbed three interceptions and a fumble to dispatch the Seawolves (1-2).

One week after Oregon beat Ohio State in Columbus, the Ducks led only 17-7 at halftime.

It was following the break that Brown didn't return to the field. He was shaken up by two sacks late in the second quarter.

Thompson, who didn't attempt a pass in either of Oregon's first two games, capped a 48-yard drive on the Ducks' second possession of the second half with a 1-yard scoring flip to Terrance Ferguson to ignite a run of 31 unanswered points to the finish.

Thompson added to the Oregon scoring in the fourth quarter with a 54-yard touchdown strike to Dont'e Thornton, putting the Ducks up 41-7 with 8:26 to go.

Brown, who engineered last week's upset against Ohio State, completed 14 of 18 passes for 159 yards and one touchdown in the first half. The score came on a 9-yard connection with running back CJ Verdell.

Brown scored on a 7-yard run before Travis Dye and Trey Benson each ran in from 3 yards out for Oregon touchdowns, while Camden Lewis nailed 40- and 35-yard field goals.

Thompson went 6-for-9 for 82 yards. Dye led all rushers with 87 yards on 15 carries.

Ty Son Lawton scored on a 5-yard run on the final play of the first quarter to keep Stony Brook close at 10-7.

But the Seawolves hurt themselves with turnovers, one that set up a field goal and two others that preceded touchdowns.

Verone McKinley III had two of Oregon's interceptions, while Bennett Williams had the other.

Stony Brook quarterback Tyquell Fields was 10-for-23 passing for 131 yards. Three of his completions went to Shawn Harris Jr., who accumulated a game-high 67 receiving yards.

The Seawolves, who were coming off a 24-3 win at Colgate, were outgained in total yards, 436-271.
