The Portland Oregon Ducks topped the Salt Lake City Utes with a commanding 52-14 victory in Week 8 of the 2026 season, solidifying their position as a formidable contender in the league. The Ducks showcased their offensive prowess, leaving the Utes struggling to keep pace throughout the game. Leading the charge for Portland was Dak Prescott, who threw for an impressive 495 yards and six touchdowns, effectively dismantling the Utes' secondary. CeeDee Lamb was a standout target, racking up 218 receiving yards, while Jeremiyah Love of Salt Lake City managed to earn the top rushing yards with 73, but his efforts were overshadowed by Portland's explosive offense.

The turning point came in the second quarter, when Prescott connected with Lamb for a 75-yard touchdown, igniting a scoring spree that left Salt Lake City reeling. Deion PrimeTime's interception further sealed the Ducks' victory, as they controlled the game from start to finish.
