What you need to know about Oregon
In the Ducks' comeback victory over Washington State last week, Auburn transfer QB Bo Nix had arguably the most prolific game of his college career, throwing for 428 yards and three touchdowns while rushing for an additional 30 yards on the ground. Nix has now thrown for 1,100 yards and ten touchdowns, rushing for an additional three scores on the ground. Considering the Ducks didn't score a touchdown in Week 1's 49-3 loss to No. 1 Georgia, calling the Ducks' offense since then prolific might be an understatement.
Wide receiver Troy Franklin was Nix's top receiver on Saturday, catching five passes for 137 yards and a touchdown in the win. He leads the team with 339 yards receiving on 20 catches, though Oregon is one of the rare teams in the sport with five players with over 100 yards through the air thus far in 2022.
What you need to know about Stanford
After a season-opening layup win over FCS Colgate, the Cardinal are in the midst of a gauntlet schedule that included then-10th ranked USC, 18th ranked Washington, and now 13th ranked Oregon in consecutive weeks. Finding enough wins on Stanford's schedule to make them bowl eligible might require several upsets. It doesn't help that leading rusher, E.J. Smith, has now been ruled out for the season by coach David Shaw.
Senior wide receiver Michael Wilson was a bright spot for the Cardinal in last week's loss to the Huskies, catching a 78 yard touchdown as part of a six reception, 176 yard, two score evening. He leads Stanford with 288 yards on 13 catches. Surprisingly, the Cardinal moved the ball effectively against the Huskies with QB Tanner McKee throwing for 286 yards and three touchdowns and running back Casey Filkins rushing for 100 yards in Smith's absence. Last year McKee threw for 230 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions in the upset win over the Ducks. A repeat performance is a must for Stanford to keep the game close on Saturday.
