The Oregon Ducks are back in action as the team heads to Stillwater to take on Oklahoma State bright and early on Saturday Morning for the fans staying out on the West Coast. The game serves as a chance for the Ducks to pick up a win over a Power 4 opponent before conference play opens for Oregon.
The game is a rematch from last season as Oregon handed Oklahoma State a 69-3 beatdown, marking the beginning of the end for Mike Gundy's tenure in Stillwater. The Cowboys will look far different this season as Eric Morris takes over at head coach, and brought most of his Oklahoma State team with him.
While the Cowboys have a new coach and roster, the Ducks will have a chance to potentially end the Cowboys' season before it even begins after Oklahoma State lost its season opener last weekend against Tulsa. It shouldn't be an easy game for Oregon, but if the Ducks are a true championship contender they should be able to flex their muscle this weekend.

Final predictions for Oregon vs Oklahoma State
The game in Week 1 was much closer than expected, but that's to be expected in the first game of the season. Oklahoma State's offensive line will be no match for the Ducks' defensive line, which should be the biggest key in the game. The defense will have to do whatever they can to keep Oklahoma State's offense from finding a rhythm, and if they have a solid showing, this should be a blowout win for the Ducks.
