The No. 3 Oregon Ducks are 1-0 but have plenty of questions to answer after their 24-14 season-opening victory over Idaho on Saturday afternoon.

Oregon led at halftime 14-0 but Idaho rallied to make it a 17-14 game with 9:45 to go in the fourth quarter.

The Ducks responded with a ten-play, 75-yard drive that ended with a 12-yard touchdown pass from Dillon Gabriel to Tez Johnson to make it a 24-14 lead and clinch the victory.

Gabriel finished his Ducks debut completing 41 of 49 attempts (84%) for 380 yards, 2 touchdowns and no interceptions.

Oregon is next in action at home next Saturday night hosting Boise State (7 p.m., Peacock).
