Oregon Ducks TV Schedule: Start Time and Channel For Pac-12 UCLA Bruins Game On ESPN At 7 PM

Oct 26, 2013 02:20 PM EDT

The College GameDay show will be broadcasting live on ESPN from the biggest game of the week in Eugene as the Oregon Ducks play against the UCLA Bruins at Autzen Stadium and Chris Fowler will be leading the coverage with Kirk Herbstreit, Lee Corso and Desmond Howard and after that the Ducks will be playing against the UCLA Bruins in a game on ESPN at 7:00 PM from Autzen Stadium.

The Ducks come into the game ranked number three in the BCS rankings right behind the Florida State Seminoles and this is a must win game if they want to remain in the national title hunt. The Pac-12 matchup is the biggest conference game of the season so far and Bruins come in ranked 12th and this is after they lost last week to Stanford. The GameDay crew is doing an Oregon game for the second time this season after heading to Seattle in early October for the matchup against the Huskies in Washington and now they will be in Eugene for the Pac-12 matchup.

Oregon is playing lights out this season and are leading the North division of the conference, tied up with Oregon State at 4-0, while UCLA is right behind Arizona State in the South division after the loss to Stanford. Brett Hundley has been playing great for the Bruins, while Marcus Mariota has 28 total touchdowns this season while passing for over 1,600 yards and ranking second on the team in rushing. Oregon has been scoring ridiculously this season and they are ranked second in the nation with nearly 60 points per game and they are coming off their second 60-plus points performance after defeating Washington State last week 62-38 and that came after another big win against the Washington Huskies.

The Oregon offense has been the most productive unit in the nation and they gain over 600 total yards per game and Mariota is the key to the offense and that is who the Bruins will focus on the most. Josh Huff is the leading receiver for the Ducks and the defense has been much improved from last season, ranking 12th in the nation with under 18 points allowed per game. The next stretch of games for Oregon will be very tough and will likely decide whether the team will be a factor in the BCS or not, as they play the Bruins, who are ranked 12th, and then the Ducks will travel to Stanford to play the Cardinal in a huge matchup with national implications. The Ducks come into the game ranked third in the BCS with Florida State ahead in the second spot.

The Ducks finish the season with Utah and Arizona after the Stanford matchup and then they have their final game against Oregon State at home in a game that will be on Fox Sports 1. The Bruins are 2-1 in the conference this season and they are coming off of a 14 point loss to Stanford and this is a tough game to rebound with, as they will play Colorado, Arizona and Washington next. The team has a tough back stretch with Arizona State and then on the road with USC and if UCLA gets past Oregon, they will have a clear shot at getting to the conference championship.
