The No. 8 Oregon Ducks (5-1, 2-1 Big Ten) head east for a Saturday matchup against the Rutgers Scarlet Knights (3-3, 0-3 Big Ten) this week. The Ducks are looking to bounce back after losing to Indiana 30-20 at home in Eugene. Last week’s loss was just the seventh under head coach Dan Lanning and the second at home since 2022. Oregon’s offense put up a season-low 267 total yards and ran for just 81 yards. The defense played a respectable game and did enough to keep the Ducks in that game. Rutgers on the other hand is back at home after a West Coast road trip of their own to Seattle, where the Scarlet Knights fell 38-19 to the Washington Huskies. The schedule doesn’t get much easier for them this weekend with a matchup against the Ducks. They’ll also face Ohio State, Maryland and Penn State this season after hosting Oregon on Saturday. The Ducks are the current betting favorites at -17 on BetMGM. This weekend’s game will be the first ever meeting between Oregon and Rutgers after the Ducks joined the Big Ten last season.

That means the most important game for the Ducks is their Week 8 road test against the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, who are losers of three straight after beginning the season with three straight victories.

DSC Inside Read: 3-2-1 look back at Indiana and ahead to RutgersFor the first time this season, Oregon didn’t look like the better team. Indiana came into Autzen and exposed the Ducks’ weaknesses — protection issues, inconsistent execution, and an inability to finish drives — handing Oregon a 30-20 loss that felt as frustrating as it was revealing. The defeat snapped Oregon’s home winning streak and raised real questions about how quickly this team can correct its mistakes with another Big Ten matchup waiting on the road. Now the Ducks turn their attention to Rutgers, a 3-3 team that scores over 35 points a game and moves the ball through the air better than anyone Oregon has faced outside of Penn State. The Scarlet Knights aren’t elite on paper, but they’re disciplined, balanced, and comfortable in long drives — the exact kind of opponent that punishes mental lapses. For Oregon, Saturday in Piscataway is less about talent and more about response.
