Oregon football schedule for Ducks’ next game after Week 5 bye
SPORTS
Unlike past seasons, the No. 15 Oregon football team will only get one bye week this season ahead of its top-25 showdown against No. 23 UCLA Oct. 10. While other college football teams battle in Week 5 of the 2026 season Oct. 3, the Ducks will rest and recuperate following a 41-27 win over USC last weekend.
The Ducks (3-1, 1-0 Big Ten) will then play eight straight weeks of football, at least, to finish out the regular season.
