Following Saturday’s statement win over the UCLA Bruins, the Oregon Ducks gained two valuable spots in the latest AP Poll.

The Ducks (7-1, 4-0) landed at No. 8 in Sunday’s updated poll and garnered a season-high 1,114 points.

It’s the highest Oregon has been ranked since Nov. 28 last year.

The Ducks are now the highest-ranked team in the Pac-12 and the second-highest-ranked one-loss team in the nation. USC (No. 10), UCLA (No. 12), and Utah (No.14) all cracked the top-25 as well. Oregon State (25) and Washington (1) were among the teams that received votes.
