Oregon Ducks’ Intriguing Odds of Making The College Football Playoff
The Big Ten will be represented well in this upcoming season, as multiple teams have a great chance of making the college football playoffs in 2026. This includes the Oregon Ducks.
The Ducks have the second-best odds when it comes to their chances of making the college football playoff inside the Big Ten, according to FanDuel Sportsbook, at -270. The Ducks only trail the Indiana Hoosiers on this list. Oregon coach Dan Lanning and his squad are narrowly ahead of the Ohio State Buckeyes (-240), who are the only other team with minus odds.
In terms of missing the postseason, the Ducks have the second-best odds, as they are only behind the Buckeyes. While the Buckeyes come in at a +190, the Ducks are at a +210. They are also only ahead of the Indiana Hoosiers slightly, as the Hoosiers odds are sitting around +250
The full odds of the teams are below.

It makes sense that the Hoosiers are ahead of the Oregon Ducks, as the Indiana defeated Oregon in the semi-finals of the CFP last season. They also would go on to defeat the Miami Hurricanes in the national championship. The defending national champions enter the season with high expectations, but, the Ducks are returning more stars than the Hoosiers, as the Hoosiers lost many of their top players to the NFL Draft.
The biggest difference between the two is going to be at the quarterback position. Indiana Hoosiers quarterback Fernando Mendoza and Oregon Ducks quarterback Dante Moore were both projected to be top-five selections in the upcoming NFL Draft. Even with the eye-catching projections, Moore opted to come back to Oregon to settle some unfinished business, as the Ducks are looking to make a run for the national championship in what is likely to be his final season.
On the other hand, Mendoza will be going to the NFL Draft and is currently predicted to be the No. 1 pick by nearly every major NFL Draft analyst. This leaves the Hoosiers with a new gunslinger and also some new weapons, as the offense will look completely different with many skill positions leaving for the draft.
The Ohio State Buckeyes will also be losing more talent than the Ducks when it comes to the NFL Draft, although the Buckeyes’ offense will return a large majority of their production.
The Buckeyes will be losing a ton of defenders, including safety Caleb Downs, linebacker Arvell Reese, and linebacker Sonny Styles. This is a large reason why the Ducks are likely ahead of them in the odds and are more favorable to make the playoffs.

Entering the 2026 college football season, the Oregon Ducks are looking to not only win their first national championship in program history but also their second Big Ten title in the last three seasons.
When the Ducks joined the Big Ten in 2024, they kicked off their inaugural season in the conference in style, finishing the regular season undefeated at 13-0. This regular season was concluded with a thrilling 45-37 win over the Penn State Nittany Lions in the Big Ten championship game.

The Ohio State Buckeyes, however, got revenge for their loss to the Ducks at Autzen Stadium earlier in the regular season, beating Oregon 41-21 in the CFP Quarterfinal at the Rose Bowl. Entering the 2026 season, here’s a look at the Ducks’ chances of winning the Big Ten for the second time.
Oregon Ducks Big Ten Title Odds: Who’s The Biggest Threat?
According to the latest betting odds by FanDuel Sportsbook, the Ducks have +270 odds to win the Big Ten championship this season. The one team ahead of them is the Ohio State Buckeyes at +190, who, believe it or not, are in search of their first Big Ten title since 2020. The Buckeyes were upset by the Indiana Hoosiers 13-10 in the Big Ten championship last season.
Among the top teams in the Big Ten next season, Ohio State poses the biggest threat to the Ducks’ chances of not only winning a conference title but also the national championship. The Buckeyes and Ducks will face off in what could be the game of the year in Columbus on Nov. 7.
As exciting as this matchup will be for college football fans, it likely won’t be the only one between the Buckeyes and Ducks. Regardless of which team wins the Nov. 7 showdown in Columbus, the Buckeyes and Ducks could match up again in the Big Ten title game and in the CFP.
Other Teams That Pose a Threat to Oregon
While the Buckeyes are the main threat to the Ducks’ Big Ten title aspirations, other teams will be worth watching. One of those teams is the defending national champions, the Indiana Hoosiers.
Despite the key losses this offseason, which include Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Fernando Mendoza, coach Curt Cignetti’s Hoosiers restocked talent with the addition of TCU Horned Frogs transfer quarterback Josh Hoover and Michigan State Spartans wide receiver Nick Marsh.
The only two losses that the Ducks suffered last season came against the Hoosiers. If the two face off in the Big Ten championship, Indiana looks to continue its dominance over the Ducks. The Hoosiers and Ducks don’t play each other during the regular season.
The USC Trojans, whom the Ducks will face at the Los Angeles Coliseum on Sept. 26, also look to knock off Oregon in what should be one of the top games of the first month of the college football season. Oregon coach Dan Lanning is undefeated 2-0 against USC’s Lincoln Riley and looks to extend the Ducks’ winning streak against the Trojans to five games.

DESCHUTES COUNTY, Ore. — Oregon State Police are asking for additional witnesses to come forward after a three-vehicle crash on Highway 20E in Deschutes County left two people seriously injured.
Troopers responded at 12:47 p.m. Friday, July 10, to the crash near milepost 41. A preliminary investigation found a westbound 2013 black Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck pulling a single-axle utility trailer attempted to pass a black Dodge 4500 towing a trailer. Police said an eastbound Hyundai Elantra tried to avoid a collision with the Chevrolet, lost control in the gravel on the eastbound shoulder, veered into the westbound lane and collided with the trailer pulled by the Dodge 4500.
The driver and passenger of the Hyundai were flown by air medic to a local hospital with serious injuries.
The crash affected traffic for about five hours. The driver of the Chevrolet was cited for careless driving and unsafe passing.
OSP is asking anyone who may have seen the Chevrolet driving westbound on Highway 20 at the moment of, or prior to, the collision to contact the OSP Northern Command Center dispatch at 800-442-0776 or *OSP (*677) from a mobile phone. Callers should reference case number SP26-255130.
