By Michael Luciano
It's Mario Cristobal and No. 6 Oregon that have struck first in The Granddaddy of Them All. Star quarterback Justin Herbert, playing in his final college game, helped the Ducks take an early lead over Paul Chryst and No. 8 Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl when the senior used his feet to pick up a four-yard rushing touchdown.

Duck fans have to be thrilled the team's dynamic offense, led by Herbert and CJ Verdell, got Oregon out to a strong start in Pasadena against a vicious defense, while the pro scouts in attendance love to see Herbert using his legs more.
