Oregon moves up in AP Top 25 after blasting Hawaii at home
Oregon is ranked No. 10 in the latest AP Top 25 poll, released Sunday.
The Ducks moved up three spots from last week to enter the Top 10 for the first time this season. They also jumped Utah in the process.
Oregon is once again one of eight Pac-12 teams in the ranking this week. The Ducks are joined by No. 5 USC, No. 8 Washington, No. 11 Utah, No. 14 Oregon State, No. 19 Colorado, No. 21 Washington State, and No. 22 UCLA.
They’ll open conference play at home this week against the Buffs (3-0) who are coming off a double-overtime win over Colorado State late Saturday night, 43-35.
Oregon had a much less enthralling Week 3 contest, handling Hawaii 55-10 to extend the nation’s longest home nonconference winning streak to 31 games. The Ducks have only lost two games at home total since 2018. Colorado brings one of the nation’s top offenses to Autzen Stadium, but the Buffs have yet to face a team quite like Oregon.
It’ll be a showcase game for the Pac-12, and an opportunity for the winner to cement themselves as a frontrunner in the Pac-12 title race. Kickoff is set for 12:30 p.m. PT on ABC.
