Photos: Oregon football — Ducks fall in stunning upset to Stanford Cardinal 26-20

The Ducks fall to the No.6 ranked Cardinal at Stanford Stadium in Stanford, Calif. The Cardinal were dominant on both sides of the ball to gain an edge on an Oregon team that isn’t used to trailing, let alone losing. Although the Ducks did have a late comeback toward the end of the forth quarter, it was not enough to clench the win. Oregon’s record is now 8-1 this season.
