The Oregon Ducks have a perfect 9-0 record in the 2024 season. The Ducks had a slow start to the season, barely beating Idaho and Boise State at home, but have since kicked it into full gear. Joel Klatt views Oregon as the best team in the country.
“They (Oregon) are No. 1 in my top ten. I think they are the most complete team in the country,” Klatt said. “They are the team that has answered the most questions…They can beat you in several different ways.”
Klatt has been especially impressed with Ducks quarterback Dillon Gabriel.
“Dillon Gabriel continues to get better and better and better,” Klatt said. “If I had to label my five Heisman finalists, he’s certainly going to be one of those with the way that he is playing. He seems more comfortable every single game that I watch him play under Will Stein’s offense.”
Another reason for Oregon’s undefeated record is their wide receiver room. The Ducks are loaded with weapons.
“I look at the combination of Evan Stewart, Traeshon Holden, and I know the injury is there with Tez Johnson. The catches that these guys make, the speed that they carry on the outside,” Klatt continued. “It is so difficult to defend these guys. They are ridiculous on the outside.”
Additionally, the Oregon offensive line, which struggled early on, has found a rhythm. All of this together makes them an extremely dangerous team that has its sights set on a national championship.
“Their offensive line is playing well. Gabriel is a point guard,” Klatt said. “This is a great team folks.”
Oregon 9-0 for First Time Since 2012
Coach Dan Lanning and his Oregon Ducks are 9-0 and ranked No. 1 in the country for the first time since 2012. The Ducks have a golden opportunity to get into the College Football playoff for the first time since the inaugural playoff in 2015. Now, with the 12-team playoff, it would take a complete collapse down the stretch in the final three regular-season games to miss out.
Oregon will look to improve their record to 10-0 on Saturday when they host the Maryland Terrapins. Kickoff is set for 4 pm PST on the Big Ten Network at Autzen Stadium.

WILSONVILLE, Ore. (CNN) – Under the cover of the night sky, a bear took a jaunt around an Oregon town. Its presumed search for a snack was interrupted by a police officer’s bright spotlight.
For the next few minutes, the officer followed the bear as it sauntered down the road, even making sure the animal didn’t dart into the road.
Eventually, video shows the officer corralled the black bear and escorted it to a nearby river where it would be safer.

PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU) — The summer solstice, which marks the astronomical beginning of Summer, is also considered the longest day of the year– meaning daytime hours are longer while nighttime hours are shorter.
WEATHER | Latest Storm Tracker 2 Forecast
This is because the summer solstice marks when the Northern Hemisphere is closest to the sun.
In Washington and Oregon, we will lose about 50 minutes by the end of July. But in the southern United States, that change is reduced.
For example, in Florida, they will lose about 20 minutes by the end of the month.
As Earth continues to orbit around the sun while rotating on its axis, the Northern Hemisphere will eventually be faced away from the sun as we approach winter solstice on December 21, 2026.
While we are losing daylight, we will not be losing any sunshine. High temperatures on Sunday will end in the lower 80s and Tuesday’s high could be closer to 90.
