We are just about to the halfway point of the college football regular season, and we now have enough evidence to feel confident about who the Oregon Ducks are, and what type of team they can be in 2024.
So far, what we’ve seen is a very good offensive team that struggled early when it came to production, but has picked things up and settled into the season. While they have shown flashes of explosiveness, more consistency needs to be had on that side of the ball as the season goes on.
On the defensive side of things, the Ducks have looked very good, and as solid as we’ve seen across the board in a few years in Eugene. The defensive line is holding up well, the linebackers are proving to be deep and productive, and the secondary has stepped up when targeted and held its own.
All of this matters, as the Ducks enter a tougher part of their schedule with Ohio State, Illinois and Michigan on the docket in the coming weeks.
Before we get into all of that, though, let’s take stock of where Oregon is when it comes to some key offensive statistics, and where those numbers rank nationally.
