It's the first time Oregon and Washington have both been ranked in the top 10 at the time of the game.
When and kick off on Saturday afternoon, it will be the first time two Pac-12 teams have met while ranked in the top eight of the AP poll in nearly a decade. It’s also the first time in this 100-plus-year-old rivalry that the two programs have both been ranked in the top 10 at the time of the game. Advertisement Quarterbacks and both lead offenses ranked in the top three in scoring and yards per play. Oregon’s defense ranks top five in scoring and yards per play allowed .
The matchup between Washington’s offensive line and Oregon’s edge rushers will be critical. The Huskies have allowed just three sacks this season, which is tied for second nationally with the Ducks, among other programs. One general manager believes home-field advantage will be critical. “Two really good teams with high-scoring, potent offenses,” he said. I think the atmosphere at Husky Stadium will be the difference in the game with UW winning a close one.” Nobody is discounting Oregon, though.
