Two longtime Pac-12 rivals duke it out as Big Ten foes Saturday, when the no. 1-ranked Oregon Ducks (11-0, 8-0 Big Ten) host the Washington Huskies (6-5, 4-4 Big Ten).

Oregon is en route to the College Football Playoff, while Washington, a CFP championship finalist a season ago, will be going bowling, but would love nothing more than to hang an L on the Ducks.

The books aren’t liking UW’s chances, as they’re massive road ‘dogs the college football odds.

Ducks Survive Wisconsin To Stay Perfect

A fourth quarter rally in Wisconsin kept Oregon’s undefeated season alive, as it escaped with a close 16-13 rockfight against the Badgers.

It was the lowest-scoring output of the season for the Ducks, who are in the Top 25 in NCAA scoring at 33.9 points per game, and just the second time all season they’ve failed to crack the 30-point plateau.

Fortunately for the Ducks, they also have a top-flight defense that can bail them out, and they showed grit last game, holding Wisconsin to just 226 total yards, and just 96 passing yards.

On the year, Oregon is seventh in the nation in yards allowed, and seventh in passing defense, surrendering just 168.8 yards per contest.

Offensively, this is a team that is pass-happy, 15th with 281.4 yards per game, with senior pivot Dillon Gabriel hitting at a 73.8% completion rate, tops in the NCAA.

They’re balanced out on the ground with Jordan James, who has racked up 1,067 rush yards and 11 majors on the year.

Washington Looking to Play Spoiler

The Huskies will look for back-to-back wins for the first time since Weeks 1 and 2, but to do so, they’ll need to beat a top-ranked team, and that’s been an issue of late.

Washington was clubbed 35-6 by 6th-ranked Penn State Nov 9, a couple of games after a 31-17 loss to then-13th Indiana. Its only win against a ranked team this year was Oct 5, against Michigan.

They are coming off a big win 31-19 win over UCLA, paced by lead back Jonah Coleman’s two TD scores. He’s rushed for 1,008 yards on the season and nine majors, and he’ll be an integral part of trying to puncture Oregon’s D. The Ducks are 28th against the run, allowing just 118.7 yards.

Their QB situation is a little in flux, though, as the team has not yet named a starter for Saturday. Will Rogers has started every game, but was benched against UCLA for throwing a pair of interceptions.

Defensively, UW is fifth in the country in pass yards allowed, but their run D is just 73rd, and prior to shutting down UCLA, they had been ripped for an average of 210 yards per game on the ground the previous four.

Washington vs Oregon Prediction

Three times this year, the Ducks have been pushed to the brink, and in each of their games decided by three points or less, they’ve come out on top.

The reality check last week might have been the best thing to happen to them, as the Huskies have taken three straight against the Ducks, including two last season that pushed Oregon out of the playoff and vaulted Washington in.

Washington vs Oregon Last 5 Games

Date Result Spread Total
Dec 1, 2023 Washington 34 Oregon 31 WASH +9.5 Under 65.5
Oct 14, 2023 Washington 36 Oregon 33 ORE +3.5 Over 66.0
Nov 12, 2022 Washington 37 Oregon 34 WASH +12.0 Under 72.5
Nov 6, 2021 Oregon 26 Washington 16 ORE -7.0 Under 48.0
Oct 19, 2019 Oregon 35 Washington 31 ORE -3.0 Over 49.0

In fact, Oregon head coach Dan Lanning has just five losses in 38 games at the helm, but he’s winless in three against UW. Then again, Washington is just 1-12-1 all time when facing the top team in the country.

The Huskies have won each of the last three by three points or less, but averaging 22.6 points per game and a struggling Will Rogers, I don’t think they have the firepower to keep up with the high-octane Ducks Saturday.

  • Pick: Oregon -18  (-110)
