Nebraska hasn't gotten the start that it wanted (obviously) here in the first half against Oregon. Bob Diaco's defense has struggled against the fast pace offense of the Ducks. 

Oregon quarterback Justin Hebert has completed 21 of his 25 passes for 313 yards and three touchdowns in the first half.

The Ducks' running back Royce Freeman added two touchdowns of his own on 11 carries for 61 yards. 

Nebraska's offense has had its moments, but Tanner Lee's two interceptions, along with De'Mornay Pierson-El's false start on fourth-and-one have killed any momentum the Huskers could muster.

The bright spot has been running back Tre Bryant, who has 10 carries for 66 yards and a touchdown. Tyler Hoppes leads the Huskers in receiving with two catches for 37 yards.
