2024 Oregon football schedule: When is Oregon Ducks vs. Washington?
By Ethan Lee
Hey look! A familiar face on the 2024 Oregon football schedule! It’s even a regional matchup in the brand new era of the Big Ten.
Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks will get the distinct pleasure of welcoming the Washington Huskies to Autzen Stadium in Eugene as the 2024 Oregon football schedule (kinda) wraps up with its final regular season game (there should be more football after this, but it will be postseason type of stuff).
This is probably the perfect rivalry matchup for these two former Pac-12 teams who have migrated into the Big Ten. Despite both teams' move to the Big Ten, this Pacific Northwest rivalry remains intact, adding a familiar and passionate element to Oregon's new conference landscape.
Familiarity matters sometimes. And it should be fun to see how these two teams measure up against one another this year.

After all the success that Washington had a season ago, most of the key contributors from that College Football Playoff team (right along with the coaching staff) left Seattle for greener pastures in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
So, it’ll be interesting to see what Jedd Fisch has assembled with the Washington Huskies in his first season in the Pacific Northwest.
It’s also just fun that this rivalry has been preserved. With this matchup coming at the end of the Oregon Ducks’ first Big Ten season, it offers a chance for Oregon to make a definitive statement about their place in the new conference. On top of that, it gives the Ducks a chance at revenge for the two losses last year that kept Oregon out of the College Football Playoff.
And, well, regional rivalries are great for this sport. We don’t need to justify that.

- Who: Oregon Ducks vs. Washington Huskies
- What: Final regular season game on the 2024 Oregon Ducks schedule
- When: Saturday, November 30
- Where: Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Oregon
With the sort of expectations that Oregon has this year, and when considering all that has been lost from Washington’s roster and coaching staff, this is a great chance for the Ducks to put an exclamation point on what is hopefully a great 2024 Oregon Ducks schedule during the 2024 college football regular season.
But hey, rivalries get weird sometimes. It’s totally possible that happens here. I don’t necessarily expect it, but it’s college football.
