The No. 1 Ducks sealed the deal against the Michigan Wolverines when the top team in the country flew to Ann Arbor and defeated the defending National Champions 38-17.

Head coach Dan Lanning raved about his team at halftime and at every point after the game. The Ducks improved to 9-0 so far this season and 6-0 in Big Ten play.

"What's so special about football is the love in that room," Lanning said. "How many people get to go to work and they get to talk about that they love everybody they go to work with.?"

Oregon's offense produced an astounding 470 total yards and five total touchdowns. The defense? Allowed just 270 yards by Michigan's offense.

"I love our team, right? I love everybody in that locker room. That makes this a lot of fun," Lanning continued.

Gabriel had similar sentiments to share with reporters after the game. The star quarterback carried on about his pride for his team and the work that his teammates repeatedly put in.

"Proud of our guys the way they continue to respond and keep playing through ups and downs," Gabriel said. "All three phases coming together, it's important."

Gabriel completed 22 of his 34 pass attempts for 294 yards and one touchdown through the air. He also ran in a TD and for 23 yards on the ground. The size, sound, and story behind the Michigan stadium didn't seem to affect the Ducks too much.

"Man, it's [the Big House] historic. This team's a great team and they played their butt off but," Gabriel said of Michigan.
