Whichever way you want to look at it, the showdown between the No. 6 Oregon Ducks and No. 25 Washington Huskies is going to be of utmost importance on Saturday.
This matchup will have major ramifications in the College Football Playoff world. This is one of the Ducks’ biggest remaining tests. Dan Lanning and Kalen DeBoer are in their first seasons at the schools; each is trying to gain an early leg up in the heated rivalry. And then, you have the rivalry. If you don’t know what’s at stake when Oregon plays Washington, you haven’t been paying very close attention.
On top of everything, this is another major recruiting weekend for the Ducks.
