GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Bo Nix rolled out to his right early in the second quarter while calmly surveying the field before flinging the ball across his body and into the end zone — a perfectly placed dart to Gary Bryant Jr. for a 2-yard touchdown.
The Oregon quarterback exuded the confidence of a man who has made throws like that before.
That's because he has. Many, many times.
The Heisman Trophy finalist's five-year college football odyssey came to an end on Monday when the 8th-ranked Ducks beat No. 18 Liberty 45-6 in a lopsided Fiesta Bowl. Nix finishes his career — which included three years at Auburn before two at Oregon — as one of the most productive quarterbacks in NCAA history.
