Oregon's Big Ten move has left some P5 empty spots between 2029 and 2033, I'm expecting the six consecutive Big 12 series' to survive but thanks to the move, two series' against Michigan State and Ohio State have got the boot, and this left me wondering... Who could Oregon schedule to replace the Spartans and Buckeyes? For 2029-30, I was thinking about scheduling none other than the Notre Dame Fighting Irish after checking FBSchedules, as they have empty spots in the dates we were set to play against MSU, and Notre Dame will reportedly never join the Big Ten, so it will definitely be a nice non-conference matchup. For 2032-33, it gets a little bit trickier to find a replacement for the Buckeyes, I was thinking about a series with Clemson but only if they join the SEC. After that, I would love a 2035-36 series with Alabama, but I know what most of you are expecting, we all would love matchups against Oregon State, tho I don't know if the Beavs will be P5 or G5 moving forward, but, aside from a yearly series against the Beavers, who could we schedule in the future?

I'm feeling sad about the Pac-12's demise, but I always wanted to see the Ducks play more diverse opponents, I'll be accepting their move to the Big Ten!

Am I the only one who wants Oregon in the Big Ten? Sure, seeing the Pac-12 survive would have been better but it's becoming more and more unlikely...

Colorado and another mystery team are supposedly gonna leave for the Big 12.

I want this model to be implemented in case no one else joins the Pac, plus we would get more interesting matchups involving our Ducks rather than just boring Big 12 matchups. Maybe Oregon vs. Alabama, Auburn or LSU?

I made a huge mistake posting this...

Hopefully the deal is on par with the Big 12's (31 million) or the ACC's (which I don't know it's number) and that the potential new members are welcomed in a good way!

I hope that whatever happens is good for our Ducks, even if the deal ends up being bad (hopefully not!)

I made a huge mistake...

Hopefully us potentially staying in the Pac-12 doesn't kill our chances of scheduling actually good opponents like Alabama in non-conference play. EDIT: Nevermind, I angered someone...

I don't know what will happen to the Pac-12 now, but hopefully everything goes fine and we finally win a national championship!

As time goes on, I'm realizing that Oregon staying in the Pac-12 can actually help them a bit at some points like being the Clemson of the west, hopefully Oregon's final decision helps them in the natty goal!

Hopefully staying in the Pac does pay-off well even if the money we will get will be lower compared to the Big Ten, tho finally seeing us winning the national championship will be a dream come true. If we win it all and play Alabama either in the post-season or in non-conference play I'll die a happy man

I'm surprised that most Oregon forums nowadays dislike the idea of moving to the Big Ten.

Indeed, I want Oregon to join the Big Ten, but mostly because of the new matchups against teams like Michigan or PSU.

The three (or technically six) consecutive Big 12 matchups were scheduled around the same time as the Georgia kickoff game, I know there's still some sour memories of that UGA game, but I'm still heavily supporting the idea of Oregon scheduling a SEC home and home series in the 2030's

I still heavily hope an SEC team gets as brave as Tennessee was in 2010 and 2013 and finally schedules the Ducks, if we get Bama vs. UO (even as a post-season game), I'll die a happy man.

After nearly 2 years, we got a future schedule update involving UO, the bad thing is that it involves a FCS team... https://fbschedules.com/oregon-adds-eastern-washington-to-2027-football-schedule/

I don't understand why people here think Alabama is afraid of Autzen Stadium, Alabama is literally a powerhouse and considering they have scheduled a series with Ohio State makes me think they would be fine with visiting Autzen, but man, I still hope Bama vs. UO happens someday, maybe it will happen in the expanded playoffs?

I still can't believe Rob wasted the chance of scheduling more relevant programs by scheduling THREE CONSECUTIVE Big 12 opponents! I hope that Oregon schedules a home and home series with an SEC team, hopefully Alabama in 2035-36.

BTW, since I'm not subscribed to John Canzano's site, I can't see what did Mullens say about the non-conference schedules.

I know this is a topic that has been repeated quite a lot on here but considering that today John Canzano spoke with Rob Mullens and somehow got asked about Oregon's non-conference schedules really is something. As far as we know, Oregon's future P5 non-conference foes are Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Baylor, Michigan State and Ohio State, I do understand that those opponents shouldn't be understimated and would be fun matchups, especially in Ohio State's case because they are among the most legendary programs in the country, but I feel there's something...off. The fact that we have three consecutive series' with the Big 12 really unsettles me, considering that the conference doesn't have a lot of exposure when compared to the SEC, Big Ten and maybe even the ACC, whom we've rarely played against with, all those matchups except for Ohio State were scheduled nearly 5 years ago and we've barely gotten any sort of news about Oregon scheduling foes that aren't G5 or FCS opponents, in fact, the most recent news about the program's schedule was in December 30, 2021, when it was announced Oregon scheduled Hawaii in 2031. I know there's still some bitter memories over the game against Georgia, but in my opinion, Oregon shouldn't shy away from programs like those and focus on bringing challenging opponents to Eugene, and with the expanded playoffs, you have a much easier chance competing for one of the 12 spots. In my opinion, scheduling a team like Alabama and Clemson in the future wouldn't hurt a bit, and I think those would be extremely fun matchups due to the simple fact they're never-before-seen matchups with two of the NCAA's most prestigious CFB programs. But, what's your opinion on the Ducks' non-conference schedule? Go Ducks!

I hope that the new scheduling model with Oklahoma and Texas doesn't kill the chances of an Oregon vs. Alabama game being scheduled in the future. Now, seriously speaking, I find it weird how Nick Saban changed his mind and wants the original 8-game scheduling model to stay.

I still want the Ducks to finally make it to the College World Series, they did appear once in 1954 tho.

I don't know why but I feel I'm one of the few Oregon fans who does care about the baseball program, I'm glad that we have shown signs of improvement and winning a conference title after a 60 year drought feels extremely nice. Our next goal is finally making the College World Series after the 1954 appearence.
