Michael Penix Jr. connected with Taj Davis on a 62-yard touchdown pass to tie the game with 3:07 to play, Peyton Henry kicked a 43-yard field goal with 51 seconds left, and No. 25 Washington snapped No. 6 Oregon’s eight-game winning streak with a 37-34 victory Saturday night inside Autzen Stadium.

After the game, coach Kalen DeBoer met with reporters to break down the win. Here’s everything he said, with video of the press conference below:

On the significance of the win

“I know it’s just huge. It’s about these guys in the locker room and everything they’ve been through over the last couple years. They deserve it because they keep fighting, they keep playing, working, sticking together. I think in the end, program wise it’s a huge win. We just beat a top-10 team on the road and for us it’s just another step. There’s places and goals that we have and every game we have shown we’re making progress toward those goals. You have to give yourself a chance to get the points, use more of the clock because of what they can do offensively. It just felt right. Henry Payton has been good all year. One kick after the other came through tonight and the last was just as big as any.”

On what the rivalry means

“It means so much because we’re giving our players a great experience. I’m going to be talking about this 10, 20 or 30 years down the road. Hopefully Husky Nation is too. There are so many great lessons you learn from athletics, but these moments are the ones that we share all together. It’s going to be fun rehashing these great moments, where the ball was at, how we came through. It was big, and I’m so proud.”

On following Chris Peterson

“Coach P did so much for this program. So many of these guys came in when he was head coach and that’s why we have such a great group of gentlemen in this locker room that have high character and are good football players. It’s all about these guys and these coaches. I get a lot of credit from the wins but everyone’s just working together. It’s a passion of mine to bring it all together and that’s what happened tonight.”

On taking over a four-win team

“There’s great talent in the program, pulling it all together, we’re getting everyone headed in the same direction. I knew we hadn’t come close to playing our best game yet. Challenged them to do that last week, still didn’t do that. That was more of the level I think we can play on tonight. Great learning opportunity for us to show what we’re capable of when offense, defense, and special teams are all doing the right thing.”

On Oregon QB Bo Nix’s injury

“It certainly had a bit of impact on the next drive. They were a little bit more conservative. It changed their ability to run the ball. He’s such a good player and I know what happens when you have a big-time player, especially a quarterback, out of your offense.”

On if he was surprised by Oregon’s fourth-and-1 attempt late

“No because they’ve shown that aggressiveness all season. Another onside kick today, and we were ready for that because of what they’ve done throughout the year. Our earlier fourth down at the end of the first half with 30 seconds left. That’s what they’ve shown is their aggressiveness and confidence to get after it.”
