College football is nearly here. In just under two weeks, the 2024 season will kick off with a small slate of Week 0 games, with Florida State vs. Georgia Tech being the headliner.

Oregon enters the 2024 season after finishing 2023 with a 12-2 overall record and defeating Liberty 45-6. The Ducks signed one of the top transfer portal classes, headlined by former Oklahoma quarterback Dillon Gabriel, former Texas A&M wide receiver Evan Stewart, former Washington cornerback Jabbar Muhammad and former Michigan State defensive tackle Derrick Harmon.

The Ducks will play a lot of big games this year, but none loom larger than an October 12 matchup against Ohio State at home in Eugene.
