Recently I've been very interested in seeing how does scheduling work, especially with matchups like Ohio State vs Alabama coming in the next few years as regular season non-conference games, but for us, the Oregon Ducks, I feel our future non-conference schedule could be improved upon. Right now, we have 5 Power 5 opponents scheduled as home and home series: Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Baylor, Michigan State and Ohio State. None of which are absolutely easy opponents that we should understimate, especially the Buckeyes, but I would like to see more diversity with teams from the SEC and ACC, as well as some traditional Big Ten powers like Penn State or Michigan. As a result of this, I'll ask you, what's the best opponent you want to see the Ducks schedule? In my opinion, it's Alabama, a matchup that would bring tons of attention to the media, especially with how it was requested a lot back in the final years of the BCS era, and while those years are far behind, I still would love to see the Ducks play against the Crimson Tide, especially if it is in Tuscaloosa and Eugene instead of a kickoff game. Other opponents I would love to see being scheduled are: Florida, Clemson, Notre Dame and Penn State. But, what programs would y'all like to see being scheduled?
