Oregon Ducks' Potential Opponents in the College Football Playoff
Our Summary
The Oregon Ducks, currently ranked No. 6, have their sights set on the College Football Playoff (CFP) following a victory over the Washington Huskies. As of now, Oregon is projected to be seeded No. 5, No. 6, or No. 7 in the playoff bracket. This positioning would have them hosting a first-round game at Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Oregon, against the No. 12, No. 11, or No. 10 seed, depending on final rankings.
The No. 12 seed is anticipated to be the highest-ranked Group of Five team, with contenders like Tulane, North Texas, and James Madison in the running. The No. 11 seed is expected to be the ACC champion, with either Virginia or Duke in contention.
In the broader playoff picture, No. 3 Texas A&M's upset loss to No. 16 Texas could affect Oregon's seeding, depending on results from upcoming championship games.
