Overview

  • The 129th meeting kicks off Saturday at noon PT at Autzen Stadium, with No. 6 Oregon hosting Oregon State.
  • Oregon enters 3-0 after a road win at Northwestern as the defending Big Ten champion, while Oregon State is 0-3 in an independent season.
  • The 2026 gap results from previously set schedules; Oregon’s reworked Utah State series helps clear a 2027 resumption under a six-year extension through 2032.
  • Oregon linebacker Jerry Mixon called the Beavers “little bros,” while OSU quarterback Maalik Murphy downplayed the talk and emphasized preparation.
  • The Ducks will debut “Shoe Duck” uniforms honoring Nike cofounders Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman, featuring a commemorative shoulder patch.
