Go Ducks, Fly High!!

Washington is pretty much at full strength. DeBoer has been in similar situations before, playing the same team more than once. This is one heck of a good coach. This team is most likely feeling disrespected at this moment as well. This will be a dangerous team going into the championship game. For Oregon “He’s out there and getting better,” Lanning said when asked about Bryant. “I think we’ll be in good shape to have him this weekend.” When it comes to Florence, and fellow cornerback Rodrick Pleasant, Lanning was a little bit less clear. “I’m expecting us to have some of those guys back,” Lanning said. “We’ll have to wait and see as the week progresses. That’s kind of the way it goes at this point of the season.” Would be great to be back at full strength, but we could be missing some players. I still feel Oregon is a different team then when they played Washington the first time. They're much improved.and on a mission! DeBoer thinks he understands Lanning's and Stein's weaknesses. This is where Lanning and Stein could get the upper hand on DeBoer. Their growth will surprise him. Go Ducks, Fly High!! Kalen DeBoer breaks down Washington health report ahead of Pac-12 Championship As Washington heads into the Pac-12 Championship Game against Oregon on Saturday, it does so much healthier than it has been in a while. Even a brief injury scare for EDGE Zion Tupuola-Fetui last week proved to be minor, and the talented edge defender is expected to play this weekend against the Ducks. “I’d expect him to be, yeah,” coach Kalen DeBoer said. “I think relative to where we were at maybe middle of the season, I think we’re healthier. So guys, different guys have been out throughout.” But many of those Washington players have returned to action or will shortly. DeBoer explained exactly where his team is getting healthier right now going into a pivotal Pac-12 Championship Game with playoff hopes on the line. “The receiving corps’ slowly come back into being intact,” DeBoer said. “Offensive line is kind of back to where it was early in the year with (Julius) Buelow being back. Defensively some of those pieces slowly returning. So I think we’re getting in a good spot when it comes to the health of the team.” Taking them on twice One thing that will be interesting about Saturday’s matchup is that it’s a rematch of the regular season meeting between the teams. Washington won that contest 36-33. DeBoer knows that first game means there will be an added level of familiarity both ways. “You learn from the game before,” DeBoer said. “You know they’re going to make adjustments. But, it’s not like there’s any secrets. You know who their personnel are. They know who ours are. You quickly talk through again the details of what they do, how they do it, who they are and you get the plan moving.” It won’t be the first time as a coach DeBoer has faced a team for the second time in the same season, though the challenge Washington will face against Oregon may be steeper than others. “Many times at Sioux Falls, two of the top teams in the country were us and Morningside College,” Kalen DeBoer recalled from his past coaching experience. “We played a regular season game, usually for the conference championship, and then we played usually the second round of the playoffs. “When I was at Fresno State, we played [Boise State] back-to-back weeks. We played them the last game of the regular season. Then, had to turn around and play them in the conference championship. We played them four times in two years. So, I’ve done that a few times.”

Oregon remains the highest-ranked one-loss team in the country. With a game against one of the four unbeaten teams left, it’s safe to assume Oregon is a win over Washington away from making it into the Playoff. But the Ducks didn’t just rise because of what others did around them. You have to think the committee was impressed with a 31-7 win over Oregon State in which Oregon thoroughly controlled every phase of the game.

ESPN FPI Update: Ducks given 4th-best odds to make College Football Playoff ESPN FPI Update: Ducks given 4th-best odds to make CFP DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM The Oregon Ducks moved up in the ESPN FPI ranking this past weekend, where they now have the 4th best chance at making the CFP.

Here is what The Athletic’s Bruce Feldman(subscription required) had to say about Stein: "While it is widely believed that Stein will eventually leave Oregon for a head coaching job elsewhere, I don’t expect it to happen this season. Dillingham’s departure a year ago was considered rare, with the young offensive guru never having spent time as a head coach, and being the primary play-caller for very little time at a Power 5 level. The same can be said for Stein, who has spent time as the OC at UTSA a year ago, and was coaching in the Texas high school ranks at Lake Travis as recently as 2019. While some teams may reach out to Stein, I would be surprised if he was not in Eugene for at least one more season as the OC." My hope is Stein will stay and not lose another OC after one year!

Oregon Ducks vs. Washington Huskies odds: Early point spread released for Pac-12 Championship Game It will be a much-anticipated rematch of Oregon and Washington in the Pac-12 Championship Game on Friday night in Las Vegas. The undefeated Huskies clinched a berth in Week 12 and the one-loss Ducks secured a spot with a Black Friday win on rivalry weekend. And a red-hot Oregon team is favored to win the rematch over Washington, opening as a 7.5-point favorite for the neutral site game, according to FanDuel. The over/under is not yet set Oregon Ducks vs. Washington Huskies odds: Early point spread released for Pac-12 Championship Game WWW.ON3.COM The Pac-12's final championship game in the league's current format will pit a pair of playoff contenders against each other in a rematch. How to watch Washington vs. Oregon in the Pac-12 Championship Game Time: Dec. 1, 7:00 p.m. ET Channel: FOX, FuboTV (streaming) Location: Las Vegas The second edition of this rivalry game has been in the offing since Washington defeated Oregon, 36-33, in Seattle in mid-October. But both teams needed to run a gauntlet of ranked teams to get there — Oregon needing to avoid a second loss to stay in College Football Playoff contention. But the Ducks have been dominant since that day, winning each of the final six games by at least two scores. The closest margin of victory for Oregon in the second half of the season was a nine-point win over USC on Nov. 11. And to finish 11-1 and clinch a spot in the conference championship game on Friday, Oregon beat down rival and Top 25-ranked Oregon State, 31-7. The Huskies have had closer calls, but have managed to stay undefeated. Opposite the dominance of the Ducks, Washington played three one-score games and hasn’t won by more than 10 since playing Oregon. An Apple Cup showdown against Washington State to end the season provides the Huskies one last chance to roll up and opponent before playing for a conference title. It’s also a game that should feature elite quarterback play, much like the first matchup. That game — a 36-33 thriller — saw Washington’s Michael Penix complete 22-of-37 passes for 302 yards and four touchdowns. Oregon’s Bo Nix countered that showing with a 33-of-34 showing for 337 yards and two touchdowns in one of the most exciting games of the year. Now, they’ll get ready to square off once again, this time at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The winner likely heading to the CFP as a result, and potentially one or both quarterbacks will be going to New York for the Heisman ceremony. Add in the conference title at stake, and not much more could be on the line on Friday night in Las Vegas.
