Our Summary
Oregon, ranked No. 7, secured a significant victory over No. 15 USC with a 42-27 win at Autzen Stadium, boosting their record to 10-1. This win positions Oregon favorably for a spot in the College Football Playoff. The Ducks will conclude their regular season by facing Washington on the road.
In related news, California has dismissed head coach Justin Wilcox following a 6-5 season start and a 31-10 loss to Stanford. Tosh Lupoi, Oregon's defensive coordinator, is reportedly a leading candidate to replace Wilcox. Lupoi, an alum and former player at Cal, began his coaching career there and has a notable coaching history, including roles at Alabama and in the NFL. If chosen, Lupoi would need to manage his commitments between Oregon and Cal, particularly if Oregon advances in the CFP.
