Oregon was off this week, but they’ve played themselves back into being a favorite for the PAC-12. A home game against Chip Kelly’s UCLA will be their biggest test since Georgia.
Oregon is 5-1. They're resume has slipped a bit with teams like BYU dropping a few games. Their best win is now probably Washington State (4-3). They have a huge matchup with UCLA next weekend.
13.2, -2.2, +2, 15.6 (17th), 10.7 (24th). Washington State’s loss hurts the Ducks’ strength of schedule, but they move up a couple places due to others dropping.
The Ducks have certainly clawed themselves into consideration following an embarrassing loss against Georgia in week 1. Definitely would like to see more from their defense, as they play a tough game against UCLA next week.
Oregon has bounced back real nicely from an awful week one. If they beat UCLA this upcoming week, they'll be sitting in the drivers seat for a conference championship and a trip to the Rose Bowl.
