Oregon has leaned on running back Jordan James this season in establishing the run game. He leads the Ducks this season in rushing with over 1,200 yards and 15 touchdowns.

James was a big key for Oregon in the first match with Ohio State in Eugene. He talks about the success he had in that game and getting ready for Ohio State in the Rose bowl. James was also asked about a decision for next season and was pretty quick to dismiss giving much of an answer.


On Run success vs Ohio State:

“Just practice, the execution, that’s a big part. The o-line opened up holes for me.”

On Staying Healthy:

“The treatment staff keep me ready to go. Also the other backs in the room, like Noah they keep me ready.”

Any Decision for next year:

“Naw.”

On Josh Conerly:

“He dominates people on the edge. He’s been doing that since freshman year. He’s grown in every way you can imagine.”

On Ohio State’s Defense:

“They do a little bit of the same things but those guys are who they are. They’re physical and they fly to the ball.”
