Last week:Â Beat No. 7 Washington, 30-27 in overtime
This week:Â at No. 25 Washington State, 4:30 p.m. Saturday
The Ducks may be the Pac-12's last hope at earning a College Football Playoff bid. Oregon took commanding control of the Pac-12 North by upending the rival Huskies, but the challenge may be even more difficult this week in Pullman. UO coach Mario Cristobal boasts the conference’s third-best offense behind Justin Herbert, and the defense is just starting to show its teeth. The Ducks could again be without two of their top offensive linemen; Dallas Warmack and Penei Sewell suffered injuries against Washington last week, so Herbert will have to have his head on a swivel.
