Pregame updates: No. 6 Oregon vs. Cal
The No. 6 Oregon Ducks will look to build on last week’s dominant win over Utah this afternoon as they return to Autzen Stadium.
The Ducks (7-1, 4-1 Pac-12) are set to face off with the Cal Golden Bears (3-5, 1-4) at 2:30 p.m. PT (Pac-12 Networks).
Dan Lanning’s squad landed at No. 6 in the initial College Football Playoff earlier this week and will have a chance to further solidify their postseason resume against Justin Wilcox’s Cal squad this afternoon. Oregon enters the day as 24.5-point favorites.
The Ducks’ players are set to take the field for pregame warmups approximately two hours before kickoff. Follow along here for pregame updates, and join the discussion in the ScoopDuck forums.
