As for Indiana, the Hoosiers made a statement against No. 22 Illinois, defeating the Fighting Illini 63-10. Oregon and Indiana both have a bye in week 6 before the top-10 matchup in Eugene, giving the teams extra time to not only practice and scout each other but also recover from the first five weeks of the season. Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza has played in Autzen once before thanks to his two seasons at Cal. Against Oregon in 2023, Mendoza finished 18/34 with 177 passing yards and an interception as the Ducks beat Cal 63-19.MORE: Oregon Quarterback Dante Moore Sheds Tears With Will Stein After Penn State Win FanDuel has released early betting odds for the game between Oregon and Indiana, and the Ducks opened as 10.5-point favorites.

Mendoza made his early case for the prestigious award in Indiana's blowout win over Illinois, and Ducks quarterback Dante Moore had his moment in Oregon's White Out win over Penn State. While Mendoza and Moore won't share the field when the Ducks and the Hoosiers face off, plenty of eyes will be on both quarterbacks and how they perform. If Indiana is going to pull off the upset against Oregon, the Hoosiers might need a "Heisman moment" from Mendoza.

Still, Oregon safety came up with a game-winning interception off of Allar. Will Mendoza have a similar fate against Oregon? Unlike Allar, Indiana and Mendoza will be on the road and have to deal with the fans inside Autzen Stadium. Adding insult to injury, the Ducks won't have played in front of their home crowd since the upset win over Penn State, and Oregon's return to Autzen coincides with a top-10 team in Indiana coming into town.Charlie Viehl is the deputy editor for the Oregon Ducks, Colorado Buffaloes, and USC Trojans on SI.
