Oregon Football is a pretty sizable favorite against a Top 25 opponent in Washington, which is playing with confidence at 7-2 off a good win over Oregon State.

The Ducks are favored by almost two touchdowns, and if they play to their full potential, they could win by more than that at Autzen Stadium on Saturday.

On today’s episode of Locked On Ducks, I go through the biggest factors and players going into a Top 25 showdown with Oregon’s rival to the north.

I start by looking at how Washington’s defense can match up with Oregon’s high-powered offense, and what the Ducks need to do in order to make it 9 straight games scoring over 40 points.

The defense has been the biggest question mark throughout this eight-game winning streak, and now they get a chance to play another prolific offense (as was UCLA) inside the confines of Autzen Stadium.

I also outline what the biggest keys are and how the Ducks need to perform defensively to get another win in front of the home fans.
