All the bowl projections I could gather

[DuckzRule]

I've decided to look at most bowl projections that have been released so far, and most of them have us in the Alamo Bowl against either Baylor or Oklahoma State, it's kinda understandable why they aren't projecting us to go to the Rose Bowl, but some of them project USC will do better than us, which is absolutely weird considering they're in a bigger rebuilding process than us.

Athlon Sports: Alamo Bowl against Oklahoma State.

CBS: Alamo Bowl against Oklahoma State

CFN: Rose Bowl against Michigan

I also recall someone projecting us against Baylor in the Alamo Bowl.

I'll also try to update this as the season goes on.

It's all speculation at this point. It's a long season.

What I'm wondering is how tiebreakers will be settled now that there's no more divisions?

Most have Utah winning the conference and USC/Oregon 2nd and 3rd. But USC & Oregon don't play in the regular season. USC plays at Utah and Utah plays at Oregon. So Utah will play Oregon and USC head-to-head, but what if all three end up at 8-1 in conference play?

If Utah sweeps USC and Oregon they'd clearly be #1, but how would you break a tie between USC and Oregon?

On the other hand, what if USC beat Utah and Utah beats Oregon or Utah beats USC and Oregon beats Utah?

All scenarios would include 2 teams losing to another team in conference play.

Please feel free to correct any errors I may have made.

Does anyone know how this would play out?

I think the CFP poll is what would take precedent in the rankings determination.

ESPN is projecting us to make the Holiday Bowl against the North Carolina Tar Heels, while Brett McMurphy is projecting us against Tennessee in the Las Vegas Bowl.

I'm fine with both, since I want to play a SEC or ACC team so badly...

Holiday would be acceptable this year, Vegas would not.

I never want the Ducks to play in Vegas again….even though it would be close and a fun city

The Las Vegas Bowl this year is against an SEC team (odd years it's a Big Ten school) so it wouldn't be against the MWC.

It’s not the team…it’s the PTSD from BYU and BSU

A site named AP News is projecting us to make the playoffs as the Number 4 seed against Alabama in the Peach Bowl.

I really wish it happens but it's unlikely.

This is the rare year I feel like we're actually being underrated. ESPN picked us for 4 losses in the regular season, which I feel only happens if the secondary is worst case scenario and QB is a disaster. Possible, but unlikely.

We have the most talent in the conference and I really cannot see us losing 3 conference games on top of UGA.

The holiday wouldn’t be acceptable. That means we wasted our most talented D ever. There isn’t a defensive unit as talented as UO west of the SEC. Just looking at it, and everyone stays healthy, Sewell, Flowe and Gonzo will be first round picks. Dorlus a 2-3, and if DJ plays like he did in the spring, he will also be a 2-3 rounder.

They are calling 2-2 to start the season. So I would guess they mean BYU and Georgia. Georgia I could see, byu at home tho?

CB depth is thin and we've got no idea how well the defensive concepts will take hold. I've got high hopes for them to buoy the team this year too.

I'm hoping 8-4 with a Sun Bowl victory. I wished Oregon was allowed in the Gator Bowl because that is my favorite non-New Year's 6 bowl. However, I think of the Sun Bowl as the lesser Rose Bowl so I wouldn't mind Oregon playing in that bowl.

I'd still like to see a top-3 finish in the conference. That would get us to the Rose, Alamo or Holiday Bowl.

I don't want to see too much of a drop off from the last couple years as it could affect recruiting.
