The Oregon Ducks’ hiatus is almost over. After their bye in Week 4, the Ducks take on the UCLA Bruins this Saturday. They’ll seek to carry the momentum they generated two weeks ago against Oregon State into this week’s game.The Bruins are 1-2 and one of the bottom teams in the Big Ten. Still, they were talented enough to walk into halftime against LSU tied on the road last week, so they’re talented enough to run with Oregon if the Ducks don’t execute.
Oregon has nine games to go in the regular season, and while this week’s likely will not be their toughest, it’s still an important chapter in the Ducks’ season. To be at their best against Ohio State, Michigan, Illinois and whoever else poses a threat, Oregon needs to execute well this weekend.
Below are my three keys to victory for the Ducks. This week, they’re all execution based. If Oregon can do these three things against UCLA, they’ll, hopefully, walk out a better team.
