Rooting for Lincoln Riley isn't fun, as it's far more enjoyable to point and laugh each time the Trojans' season goes sideways, but if it helps the Ducks, it's impossible to root against them.

The first top-five showdown in Autzen Stadium history delivered a signature Ducks victory and an atmosphere that left an impression on the Buckeyes’ star receiver.
