Oregon scored first to make it a 7-0 game with 13 minutes in the 1st quarter left to play. Utah cut Oregon's lead to 4 by the time the first was over, making it 7-3. The 2nd quarter saw plenty more action, with Oregon taking a 7-point lead back, 10-3. Utah struck back quickly and tied the game at 10-10 with 11 minutes and 15 seconds left in the half. Maurice Morris ran in a score to make it 16-10, but kicker Jared Seigel missed the PAT, leaving the score 16-10 at the half. When the second half commenced, there were no scores between both teams in the 3rd quarter, and in the 4th quarter, Oregon would score, and then complete a 2-point play to make it a 24-10 victory.

USC

Oregon started conference play with USC on September 22, 2001. The visiting Trojans were 1-1 following a narrow loss to #12 Kansas State, 10-6.

The 2nd quarter saw USC cut Oregon's lead to one point, making it a 7-6 game before USC QB Carson Palmer was intercepted by linebacker Steve Smith for a 37-yard interception return, making it a 14-6 Oregon lead going into the half. Oregon scored again with 13:50 to go in the 3rd quarter, making it a 21-6 ball game. Between that last score and up to 16 seconds left in the 4th quarter, USC scored 14 straight points to give USC a 22-21 lead. Kicker Jason Seigel nailed a 32-yard field goal to stab the dagger into USC for a 24-22 final score and to move to 3-0 on the year.

Utah State

Ranked #6, Oregon would play Utah State for the first time since 1990, and would be the first time they played at Romney Stadium.

Oregon State

The 105th meeting of the Civil War pitted #4 Oregon (9-1, 6-1 Pac-10) vs Oregon State (5-6, 3-4 Pac-10). Oregon was already bowl eligible at this time, and Oregon State needed a 6th win to become bowl eligible.

Oregon State scored first, nailing a long 43 yard field goal to give OSU a 3-0 lead. Oregon followed up with a 44-yard field goal of their own to tie it 3-3 to end the 1st. Oregon State would score on a 28-yard field goal to make it a 6-3 game at the half. Going scoreless in the 3rd, Oregon State went 3-and-out to start the 4th quarter, and punter Carl Tobey punted it to Keenan Howry, where he returned it 68 yards for the 10-6 lead. Oregon would score again to make it 17-6. Oregon State returned the favor by scoring and landing a 2-point play, but it was not enough to defeat the #4 Ducks, 17-14 the final from Eugene.

Fiesta Bowl

Prior to Oregon (10-1, 7-1 Pac-10) being placed in the 2002 Fiesta Bowl against #3 Colorado, many people believed that Oregon, now at #2, was going to face off against #1 Miami, however, the BCS had named Nebraska as the contender, despite Nebraska not playing in the Big 12 championship game. However, these events transpired since Nebraska's first loss that year to Colorado: #2 Florida lost to Tennessee, the Colorado Buffaloes went on to win the Big 12 Championship Game over #3 Texas, and in the SEC Championship Game, #2 Tennessee was stunned by LSU. This left Miami as the undefeated and undisputed No. 1 team in the country but a host of other teams vying for #2.

Colorado scored first, with a 1-yard touchdown to take the lead, 7-0. Oregon would score after them, tying the game 7-7. Oregon would score on their next 5 possessions, including a 49-yard touchdown run by Maurice Morris, in which Morris sat down on a defender after a failed attempt at a tackle and continued to run, and an 80-yard Joey Harrington pass to WR Samie Parker. Colorado would score twice in the 4th quarter, nailing a field goal and a touchdown with a failed PAT, but Oregon would prevail 38-16, earning their first Fiesta Bowl win under HC Mike Bellotti. This game also marked Bellotti's first 11-win season.
