Oregon Football will travel south to face the USC Trojans as they continue a strong start to the conference slate.
Over the last month and a half, the Oregon defense has been key. Despite giving up points at Washington last weekend, overall the Ducks defense still remains in the top ten in most of the important defensive categories as they face two more tests over the next few weeks with both the Washington State Cougars at home followed by a road trip to visit the USC Trojans.
The game at USC has been selected by FOX and will be broadcast at 5 pm Pacific Time on Saturday, November 2nd.
For the Oregon offense, Marcus Arroyo seems to have found his role this season and after calling perhaps the best game of the season for Justin Herbert and company was named the Athlon Sports Offensive Coordinator of the Week following their 35-31 win on the road vs Washington.
