EUGENE, Ore. (AP) – There’s really no spinning Oregon’s No. 1 ranking and the challenge the Ducks pose for UCLA on Thursday night. Coach Rick Neuheisel says he doesn’t need to point out what the Bruins already know.
The Bruins (3-3, 1-2 Pac-10) visit heavily favored Oregon (6-0, 3-0) on Thursday night at raucous Autzen Stadium, where the Ducks will be celebrating their first-ever appearance atop the AP Top 25.
Oregon popped up the rankings after two straight weeks of upsets for the previous No. 1s: Alabama lost to South Carolina before Ohio State lost at Wisconsin last weekend.
The only time an AP No. 1 has lost three straight weeks was November 1960, when Iowa, Minnesota and Missouri all fell.
