The regular season has come and gone, and though the Oregon football team won't repeat as Big Ten champion in 2025, its spot in the College Football Playoff is safely secured .
And perhaps, the Ducks (11-1, 8-1 Big Ten) might be in position for a more favorable path to a national championship.
Several conference championships will influence where UO is seeded in the final CFP rankings Sunday, Dec. 7 − namely the SEC championship between Georgia and Alabama and the Big 12 championship between Texas Tech and BYU − but the Ducks will likely either host a first-round playoff game at Autzen Stadium, or earn a first-round bye as a top-4 seed.
