Once UCLA upset the Utah Utes and kept its undefeated season alive a week ago, we knew there was a chance that the game between the Ducks and Bruins would be a big one. After Oregon routed Arizona later that day, it was clear it would be a marquee matchup.

One that is big enough to bring ESPN’s “College GameDay” to town.
ESPN announced that the GameDay crew will head to Eugene for the top-15 matchup between No. 11 UCLA and No. 12 Oregon.
This will be the 26th time the Ducks have been in a GameDay game.
So far this year, Oregon suffered a brutal loss to Georgia in the first week of the season but has bounced back nicely, averaging nearly 50 points per game and winning five straight. Contrarily, UCLA looked underwhelming early on, gritting out wins against Bowling Green and South Alabama before upsetting No. 15 Washington and No. 11 Utah in consecutive weeks.
Now the two clash with arguably the top spot in the Pac-12 power rankings on the line.
The game is schedueld for 12:30 p.m PT on Saturday at Autzen Stadium.
EUGENE, WE'RE COMING TO YOUR CITY!
