The Oregon Ducks’ 2023 football schedule finally came out on Wednesday morning, giving fans a chance to open up the calendar app on their phones and start looking at plane tickets for this fall.
While we knew which teams the Ducks would be playing next season, we know now the order in which the games will be played, and when they will happen in relation to the bye week.
Are there back-to-back weeks against top-tier opponents? Do the Ducks face a tough team right after the bye? Are there multiple games on the road in a row?
All of those questions were answered on Wednesday, and Duck fans should be relatively pleased with how things shaped up. The back half of the schedule is loaded, with games against Washington, Washington State, Utah, USC, and Oregon State all following the bye week, but Oregon, fortunately, does not play any of those games in consecutive weeks, and they get to enjoy a bye week before traveling up to Seattle.
So which games on the schedule are going to be the toughest, and which ones might be the easiest to win? Let’s take a look in our ranking of the 2023 schedule.
