Ducks Jump To #3 in AP Poll
Oregon jumped Oklahoma to #3 in the AP Poll. The Sooners have had two lackluster performances against both Tulane and Nebraska, which led to them dropping one spot.
1. Alabama
2. Georgia
3. Oregon
4. Oklahoma
5. Iowa
6. Penn State
7. Texas A&M
8. Cincinnati
9. Clemson
10. Ohio State
Also, Fresno State entered the Poll at #22 after beating #24 UCLA yesterday, 40-37.

Deserved. Only Oregon and Penn State have two top 25 wins.

I mean I don't think we are the 3rd best team.....but I guess we are?
This is a weird year though as I feel like the top teams are a clear step down from their usual standing.

I feel like in a normal year Oregon wouldn’t be the 3rd best team but nobody in the nation looks dominant so maybe Oregon is a top 3 team this year.lukeyrid13 wrote:I mean I don't think we are the 3rd best team.....but I guess we are?

Re: Ducks Jump To #3 in AP Poll
With the team we fielded against Stony Brook, definitely not. If our bad luck on the injury front reverses itself (everyone that has a chance to return comes back, and others don't keep dropping like flies), then maybe.lukeyrid13 wrote:I mean I don't think we are the 3rd best team.....but I guess we are?

Even Alabama looked a step or two down from its usual, dominant self this year.

This is a fact. I watched much of the game vs Florida and the Gators were consistently gashing them with their run game.alxtw wrote:Even Alabama looked a step or two down from its usual, dominant self this year.
I was wondering to myself if we could matchup with Georgia or Alabama after I saw that we'd jumped to #3 in the AP Poll and my first thought was no, but after rethinking it, I think we could play with either of them, especially if KT is healthy.

Re: Ducks Jump To #3 in AP Poll
Most people are projecting us to face Georgia in the CFP semifinals, I believe that if the projections become true, then the game won't be as much of a blowout than people think it would be, I believe that a healthy Oregon team will be able to compete with Georgia and maybe Alabama, I'm currently predicting an Oregon vs Bama natty and if we win we'll be the next Clemson.SuperDuck wrote:This is a fact.

Re: Ducks Jump To #3 in AP Poll
The way I see the CFP right is it's Bama, Georgia, Oregon and the B10 champ but it'd likely get slotted so the SEC wouldn't have a rematch of their CG.
I think an undefeated B10 champ would rank above us but ultimately we've just got to take care of our business every week and we'll make it.

It's either gonna be Penn State or Iowa, Iowa making the playoffs would be weird.Duck07 wrote:The way I see the CFP right is it's Bama, Georgia, Oregon and the B10 champ but it'd likely get slotted so the SEC wouldn't have a rematch of their CG.
