Kelly coached the [[Oregon Ducks football|Oregon Ducks]] to BCS games in each of his four seasons as head coach: the [[2010 Rose Bowl]], [[2011 BCS National Championship Game]], [[2012 Rose Bowl]], and [[2013 Fiesta Bowl]]. Kelly coached Oregon to three consecutive outright conference championships from 2009 to 2011 and a conference division title in 2012. Oregon won its second consecutive BCS bowl game after they defeated #5 Kansas State in the 2013 Fiesta Bowl.
