For the second time in three weeks, Oregon will be battling a Big Ten foe on a Friday night. The Ducks will face off against Purdue at 5 p.m. PT and there will be plenty of excitement surrounding this game from both sides. The Oregon vs. Purdue game is another case of a top-five team in the country facing the Spoilermakers.

Before we can get into all the preview stuff for the game, it's time to look at who might be playing and who is likely out for the Ducks and Boilermakers.

Jordan Burch has been a big name to watch for this week as Dan Lanning has stated that he expects him back at some point this season but he's not going to rush his star defensive end.

If Burch is out again (looking that way), the Ducks will have to find ways to get after the quarterback without him. Fortunately, the defense has plenty of key players who can get into the backfield in a hurry, including Matayo Uiagalelei and Derrick Harmon.

Anyways, without further ado, here's the injury report for Week 8.

As you can see, neither of these teams will be quite at full-strength and it would be nice to see Matthew Bedford finally suit up after waiting the entire first half of the season to watch him play.

Let's hope these guys can make a full recovery soon.
