After big win, Oregon hosts Fresno State

Sep 15, 2007 - 11:51 AM Fresno St (1-1) at No. 19 Oregon (2-0), 7:00 pm EDT

EUGENE, Oregon (Ticker) - Following an historic victory, Oregon can make some history for Mike Bellotti.

The 19th-ranked Ducks can register their 100th win under Bellotti when they host Fresno State on Saturday.

Bellotti improved to 99-48 with the Ducks when his team crushed host Michigan, 39-7, last weekend.

Dennis Dixon threw for three touchdowns, ran for another score and totaled 368 yards of offense for Oregon, which handed Michigan its worst home loss since 1968 - the year before legend Bo Schembechler took over the Wolverines.

A senior, Dixon is fifth nationally in pass efficiency rating (193.2).

The Ducks are 26-1 in non-conference games in Autzen Stadium under Bellotti.

While Oregon is coming off an emphatic victory, Fresno State lost a heartbreaker at Texas A&M, coming up short in triple overtime, 47-45.

Tom Brandstater threw three touchdowns but had a two-point conversion pass fail after a nine-yard TD toss to Bear Pascoe.

Oregon has a 5-2 lead in the all-time series after winning the past five matchups. Last year, the Ducks posted a 31-24 triumph in Fresno.
