This may be a bit of a premature ranking seeing as Oregon still has to finish business against USC on Saturday night, but I fully expect the Ducks to beat a struggling Trojans team.

Bo Nix is one of the top Heisman Trophy contenders in the country and he’s facing Caleb Williams who just saw his hopes for the award crushed last week with a loss against Washington at home. While the Trojans aren’t having the best season, Williams is still playing like a No. 1 overall pick.

The Ducks should have no problem taking care of the Trojans at Autzen Stadium and improving to 9-1 on the year with both a Pac-12 and national title still on the radar.
