PASADENA, Calif. — Touchdown. Turnover. Touchdown. Turnover. Touchdown.

And on it went for Oregon.

Marcus Mariota and the Ducks are built for speed and in a flash they turned the first College Football Playoff semifinal game into a Rose Bowl rout.

The Ducks dusted Florida State 59-20 on Thursday and now it’s on to Texas to try to win their first national championship.

“It’s incredible. I’m so proud of these guys right here,” Mariota said. “We’ve got one more to take care of.”

Pac-12 champion Oregon (13-1) will play Ohio State in the title game Jan. 12 in Arlington, Texas. Ohio State beat Alabama 42-35 in the Sugar Bowl on Thursday night.

The second-seeded Ducks scored six straight times they touched the ball in the second half, with five of the touchdowns covering at least 21 yards and the last four coming after Florida State turnovers.

In a span of 12:54 on the game clock, the score went from 25-20 to 59-20.

“A lot of fun,” said Oregon coach Mark Helfrich of the Ducks’ run, “but at the same time these guys were able to retain a tremendous focus.”

In the matchup of Heisman Trophy winners, Jameis Winston matched Mariota’s numbers, but the Seminoles (13-1) were no match for the Ducks.

Third-seeded Florida State’s winning streak ended at 29. In Winston’s first loss as a college starter, maybe his last game in college, he threw for 348 yards and turned the ball over twice.

“I think what he did as a competitor and what he does with his teammates, he’s one of the great players in not only college football, but college football history to me,” Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher said. “It was a tough day out there.”

Mariota was mostly brilliant again. Directing the Ducks’ warp-speed, hurry-up offense, the junior passed for 338 yards and two touchdowns. When he sprinted for a 23-yard touchdown with 13:56 left in the fourth quarter it made the score 52-20 and it made the Ducks the first team to reach 50 points in Rose Bowl history. This was game No. 101.

“The longer you go, the stronger you get,” said Ducks safety Erick Dargan, who forced a fumble and intercepted a pass. “We went longer and we stayed stronger. Everyone kept demanding more out of each other.”
