The Oregon Ducks’ mascot took a tumble during the team’s game against Montana State on Saturday night and lost its head.
The Oregon Duck ran out onto the field with the cheerleading and dance squads revving up fans for the game. The mascot tripped in the end zone and its head popped off. The headless mascot then ran back toward the tunnel, covering his face.
The mascot returned to the field moments later with its head back on. The moment went viral across social media as the Ducks played the Bobcats.
It wasn’t the first time the Oregon Duck suffered a wardrobe malfunction during a game. The mascot lost its head when he tripped on the road last season at Purdue.

The fall appeared to be the only blemish for the No. 7-ranked Ducks. They defeated Montana State, 59-13. Oregon scored 17 points in the first quarter and laid 21 more points on their opponents in the second quarter.
Dante Moore was 18-of-23 with 213 yards and three touchdown passes. Jordan Davison had three rushing touchdowns while Noah Whittington and Jayden Limar each had a rushing touchdown each. Ten Ducks receivers had at least one catch.
Oregon was 13-1 last season. The Ducks went on a streak last season onto the College Football Playoff. They topped Ohio State, Illinois and Penn State. But the Buckeyes got their revenge in the Rose Bowl.
