October 9, 20231 yr Author Moderator Oregon versus Washington - a recent history Ā In what has, at least until recently, been a one-sided affair for the last 15 years, the Oregon-Washington rivalry is back in full swing. 2021 was the renewal of a series that has definitely regained its spice after the teams were set to square off for the inside track to the Pac-12 Championship Game in 2020 but the game was called off due to Washington having to pause football activities due to a COVID breakout.Ā Ā Overall, UW is 3-7 the last 10 times the two teams have met, but 2-3 the last five years and 3-3 the last six, so things have definitely tightened up. Ā Three out of the last four times the Huskies and Ducks have met the games have been close, with the 2018 game decided in overtime and the 2019 game won by Oregon in come-from-behind fashion, while the Huskies were able to use a fourth-down stop and 43-yard field goal from Peyton Henry to give the No. 24 Huskies a thrilling 37-34 win over the No. 6 Ducks. Ā Over the past 10 meetings, Oregon holds an average points edge of a little over a field goal a game, 32 to 30. Ā But the last five meetings? Washington holds a 30-26 advantage, buoyed by the 38-3 win in 2017. Ā And overall? Washington still holds a 61-46 series lead, with five ties. The last tie took place in 1962.Ā Ā Below are recaps and notes from the last 10 times the Ducks and Huskies have met...

October 12, 20231 yr Author Moderator Oregon vs. Washington Injury Report: Both Ducks and Huskies near full health for top-10 showdown Ā Injuries are a subject some coaches bristle at where the media is concerned.

Some days he talks, but others he chooses to leave information close to the vest. Ā For Washington Week, injuries were something he wanted to avoid talking about at all costs. Ā Though Lanning may be participating in a bit of gamesmanship, it appears from what we can gather that the Ducks are close to fully healthy as a team heading into their sixth game of the season. Ā Likewise, the Huskies are in the same boat, though there are a few more āquestionableā players up in Seattle that we will be watching as kickoff draws near.

October 12, 20231 yr Author Moderator Evan Williams hopes defense will 'prove who we say we are' in Seattle this weekend Ā Oregon defensive back Evan Williams has a lot of ties to this game even though it will be his first and last time playing in it. Ā Saturday's top 10 matchup in Seattle provides an improved Oregon defense the chance to show just how far they've come. Ā A year ago, Michael Penix Jr. rolled into town and threw for 408 yards to end Oregon's eight-game win streak. The loss exposed some personnel shortcomings and led Dan Lanning to aggressively retool the secondary this offseason. Ā Through five games this year, no opposing passer has thrown for more than 282 yards and on average the Ducks have allowed the fifth fewest yards per game (153.6) through the air nationally. Ā With the country tuned in for Saturday's nationally-televised game, this year's unit, which features five new defensive back starters, hopes to make a statement. Ā "Not that we're not who we were last year, but that we're completely different," said safety Evan Williams. "We have a completely different set of capabilities and we're just looking to attack this opportunity. We know they're going to challenge our secondary a lot."Ā Ā Evan Williams hopes defense will 'prove who we say we are' in Seattle this weekend 247SPORTS.COM Oregon defensive back Evan Williams has a lot of ties to this game even though it will be his first and last time playing in it.

October 13, 20231 yr Author Moderator 9 major questions for No. 8 Ducks to answer in showdown vs. No. 7 Washington Ā We are just about midway through the 2023 college football season, and while weāve learned a lot about who the Oregon Ducks are, and what Dan Lanning is making possible for his team thus far, there are still a ton of things that we still need to learn about this group. Ā While Oregon is sitting with a 5-0 record for the first time since 2013 and a clear path towards the Pac-12 Championship Game and the College Football Playoff if their success continues down the road, the relatively easy schedule that they have traversed through the first half of the season has made it rather difficult to get a great read on this team. Ā The offense looks great under Bo Nix, but they havenāt faced a defense that can be described as elite. The defense has been spectacular, led by Khyree Jackson and Evan Williams, but itās safe to say that the Ducks havenāt seen an offense that is among the best in the nation. Ā That certainly is going to change this week when Oregon goes up to Seattle to take on the No. 7 Washington Huskies. Ā Michael Penix Jr. is leading the Heisman Trophy conversation at the moment, and the Huskies boast the No. 1 passing and No. 1 total offense in the nation. Ā If Oregonās defense is as good as we think it is, we will find out this week.
