EUGENE, Ore. -- No. 23 Oregon is piling up points at a prolific pace.Tyler Dorsey scored a career-high 29 points, Dillon Brooks had 22 and the Ducks set a school scoring record in a 128-59 victory over Savannah State on Saturday night.Coming off a 93-54 win against Western Oregon on Wednesday night, the Ducks (7-2) eclipsed their previous high of 121 points against Portland in 1970 and had seven players score in double figures for the first time in nine seasons. It was their fifth consecutive win and 30th straight at home, adding to another school record.The teams tried a combined 85 3-pointers. Oregon won that battle, too, hitting 12 of 35.Three or four of our guys were talking to their coach about transferring, Oregon coach Dana Altman said, because anybody who takes 50 3s, our guys love that.Freshman Payton Pritchard, who had 13 of Oregons 36 assists, broke the scoring mark with a 3-pointer with 2:45 left.Dorsey went 12 of 16 from the field, and the Ducks shot a season-high 60 percent (54 for 90) overall. They dominated the smaller Tigers (2-8) inside by an 82-10 margin in points in the paint and 67-29 in rebounds.Oregons Kavell Bigby-Williams had 11 points and 11 rebounds for his first double-double.Despite the easy win, Altman called the Ducks a work in progress, largely without Brooks in the starting lineup.Were not using our athleticism to get in passing lanes and weve just got to do a better job, Altman said.Brooks, a preseason All-American playing his sixth game since recovering from offseason foot surgery, said hes about ready to assume more than the sixth-man role.Im almost there, he said. Im trying to get back in shape a little more. I feel good and my teammates keep pushing me.Savannah State, which came in averaging 40 3-point attempts per game, went 11 for 50 from beyond the arc in its fourth straight loss.Dexter McClanahan led the Tigers with 13 points and Troyce Manassa had 10.BIG PICTURESavannah State: The nations leading long-distance shooters also may be tops in frequent-flier miles after the Tigers make their third West Coast one-game road trip in two weeks to play Oregon State. They opened the season at Iowa State and Iowa and also played at San Diego State.Oregon: Brooks looks ready to rejoin the starting lineup, just as the Ducks schedule turns tougher with Alabama, Montana, UNLV and Fresno State on tap before Pac-12 play. Brooks was 8 for 12 from the field and 5 for 5 at the free-throw line.UP NEXTSavannah State visits Oregon State on Dec. 11. The Tigers play only three of their first 13 games at home before starting Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference play on Jan. 4.Oregon heads into finals week with eight days to prepare for Alabamas visit on Dec. 11, the fourth of nine straight in-state games for the Ducks this month.POLL IMPLICATIONSOregons stock should start to rise again with three home wins in six days after the Ducks tumbled 19 spots from their all-time high ranking of No. 4 in the first week of the season.HIGHLIGHT REELPritchards fifth assist in the first 10 minutes was a 40-foot lob in transition to a streaking Chris Boucher for a two-handed dunk that capped a 21-3 run for the Ducks.HIGHLIGHT REEL IIIn the second half, Oregons Jordan Bell took the time to set up his own breakaway dunk by bouncing the ball off the backboard before throwing it down with both hands. I thought he was going to windmill, Brooks said. Off the glass is crazy.Altman wasnt quite as amused by Bells theatrics as his teammates were. Hes lucky it went in, Altman said. We will talk about that, but since it was his only two points, I guess he felt like he had to have that one.

BALTIMORE -- Though improved from last year, the Baltimore Ravens still arent good enough to overcome their own mistakes.And that is why theyre no longer undefeated.The Oakland Raiders, on the other hand, proved Sunday with their 28-27 win over Baltimore (3-1) that playing on the road is no longer an issue. This much is certain: Derek Carr could probably find Michael Crabtree with a pass if they were on a construction site.Carr connected with Crabtree on touchdown passes of 5, 13 and 23 yards. The last one, with 2:12 left, enabled Oakland (3-1) to improve to 3-0 on the road for the first time since 2000.Crabtrees three TDs increased his total with the Raiders to 13 since joining the team prior to last season. He had 14 in the three seasons before that with the 49ers.Crabtree also now has at least four receptions in 16 straight games, all with the Raiders.He said his relationship with Carr is the key.Its no secret. We keep working hard, Crabtree said. We keep working together and we have a great rapport. This is a tremendous situation for me. I feel reborn in Oakland.Coach Jack Del Rio had nothing but praise for his receiver, who he said reminds him off another special wideout.Hes been sensational since Day One, Said Del Rio. I played with a guy named Cris Carter who had exceptional hands. I think Crab has those kind of hands.Some are some other things we learned about the Ravens and Raiders in Week 4:FLAG DAY: The Ravens hurt themselves with 10 penalties for 105 yards. The miscues ranged from five holding calls on the offensive line to taunting by receiver Mike Wallace.I think we had holding on 75 percent of our drives, quarterback Joe Flacco said. Stuff like that is disappointing. It makes it very, very tough to overcome and score points when those kinds of things are happening out there.Coach John Harbaugh said: What we needed to do was put the pressure oon (Oakland) more than on ourselves.dddddddddddd You keep the pressure on yourself when you have that many penalties.ROAD SHOW: The Raiders long have struggled on the road, but its possible theyve turned the corner after winning at Tennessee and Baltimore in successive weeks.There are some things you have to do as a team, and weve embraced that, in terms of traveling and being able to cross time zones, Del Rio said.That will continue to be critical for the Raiders, who must later this month again travel across the country for consecutive road games at Jacksonville and Tampa Bay, both starting at 10 a.m. PT.The league likes to put us in that (time) window, Del Rio said. It will be important that we continue to take care of business, regardless of where we are.HEAD WEST: In an effort to get the running game going, the Ravens sat out Justin Forsett and let Terrance West prove he can do the job.West didnt disappoint. He gained a career-high 113 yards on 21 carries, a robust average of 5.4 yards per attempt.We were consistent running the ball in the second half, he said. I just took advantage of the opportunity.DUMERVIL RETURNS: Though the Ravens stumbled down the stretch, the return of linebacker Elvis Dumervil should help in the long run.Dumervil missed the first three games with a foot injury. Though he saw limited action and did not get credit for a tackle, Dumervil knows better days lie ahead.I felt rusty, but Im going to keep working and well get it going, he said.The Ravens could use him at his pass-rushing best. Baltimore did not have a sack on Sunday.---This story has been corrected to show the last time Oakland won its first three road games was in 2000, not 2002.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
