Oregon Football: 5 numbers that have defined the Ducks' 5-0 start to the season Oregon is 5-0 at the start of its bye week. So far, so good for coach Dan Lanning and the Ducks, who are unbeaten through five games for the first time since 2013. That Oregon team lost a top-10 battle with Stanford in November that essentially determined the Pac-12 champion that year. This Oregon squad could very well be playing in a similar game on Oct. 14 when it heads to Seattle. If there’s a team in the Pac-12 this season that can go head-to-head with Washington at its best and walk away with a win, it’s Oregon. The Ducks have looked incredibly promising throughout the 5-0 start, and they move into a “work week” with very few clear flaws. Here are five key stats that have defined the season thus far for Oregon. Oregon Football: 5 numbers that have defined the Ducks’ 5-0 start to the season SATURDAYOUTWEST.COM Oregon is 5-0 at the bye.

Dan Lanning on what's next: 'We're not going to bye week, we're going to work week' Dan Lanning set the tone for No. 8 Oregon's bye week before it even started. Speaking with media following Saturday's 42-6 win over Stanford, Lanning made it clear that the upcoming week would be about a lot more than rest. "We're not going to bye week, we're going to work week," he said. "Our guys know what our goals are and what we have to accomplish. A lot of the teams are going to relax this week. We're going to get better." With the meat of the schedule following this weekend's open Saturday, attention will be had on upcoming opponents. Seventh-ranked Washington, who the Ducks face on Oct. 14, will receive much of the week's attention, but so will a thorough self scout. "We have a plan in place," he explained. "We'll work future opponents, and will certainly work Washington. We've got some good teams coming up. Those guys are playing good ball up north. So, we've got to bring our best. It's going to be one of our great preparations. "Then we've really got to self scout ourselves, right? It's time to peel back the layers and figure out, 'OK, what do we have to do to be a dominant team moving forward'?"

9 major takeaways from Oregon's dominant 42-6 win over Stanford For the first time since the 2013 season, the Oregon Ducks are 5-0.
