The Oregon Ducks have moved into second place in the BCS standings behind LSU but they realize they must continue winning if they expect to have a chance to play in the BCS title game. They get back into action after a bye week on Thursday night at Arizona. SBG Global reports that early
college football betting has the public taking Oregon on the Road.
The Ducks will be trying for a sixth straight road win against Arizona but they remember last year when they lost at home 37-10. The Ducks still have games remaining at UCLA and Oregon State before the regular season is over. "When you start thinking about national championship and the Rose Bowl, you can get ahead of yourself," Oregon cornerback Walter Thurmond said. "We don't want to do that."
Oregon quarterback Dennis Dixon sprained his knee in the last game against Arizona State but the bye week was helpful and he will start on Thursday. He has thrown for 2,074 yards with 20 touchdowns and rushed for 549 yards and eight scores. "He is doing all the things necessary of a Heisman candidate," Oregon coach Mike Bellotti said. "He's winning football games. He's leading his team."
