- JR WR Charles Nelson became the Ducks' career leader in kickoff return yardage with 1,929, passing De'Anthony Thomas (1,885, 2011-13).
- Washington snapped UO's 12-game winning streak in the series, the longest streak by either team in the history of the rivalry, dating to 1900.
- The 70 points surrendered by the Ducks was the most they have allowed in conference play. Washington had the previous high at 66 points in 1974.

- SO WR Jalen Brown made his first career start.
- Oregon scored at least 20 points for the 36th straight game, the longest such streak in the FBS (tied with TCU).
