The Oregon Ducks and Washington Huskies will play in a huge game in the Big Ten on Saturday afternoon. Oregon should be safe when it comes to getting a place in the College Football Playoff. But they are still playing for a potential spot in the Big Ten championship game and will need a win to have a shot at that. Here, I’ve broken down this matchup between former Pac-12 rivals and you can find my Oregon vs Washington prediction right here.

Game Snapshot
- Matchup: Oregon Ducks vs Washington Huskies
- Date & Time: Saturday, November 29, 2025, 3:30 p.m. ET

- Broadcast: CBS
Key Storylines
- Playoff and conference stakes: Oregon enters needing a win to maintain its path to the conference championship game. They also need a loss from Ohio State against Michigan earlier in the day. For Washington, this is a chance to end the regular season on a high note and derail one of their main rivals.
- Rivalry history and momentum swings: Since 2004, Oregon has dominated this rivalry with a 16-5 record against Washington. The Ducks are currently riding a five-game winning streak, including a 42-27 win over USC. Washington enters hot after a 48-14 win over UCLA with confidence high, especially at home, where they have won 25 of their last 26 games.
- Injuries and roster pressures: Oregon has managed some injuries in its receiving corps and offensive line, but a deep and versatile backfield and a reliable offensive line have mitigated much of that damage. Washington is getting key players like running back Jonah Coleman and wide receiver Denzel Boston closer to full strength and that health could matter greatly in a tightly contested rivalry game.
- Offense vs. defense: Oregon has a dangerous offense that has torn up most of their opponents this season. Washington is excellent on defense, though, and they will try to put up a roadblock against that Oregon offense here.
Quarterback Play
At the helm for Oregon, Dante Moore has delivered a sharp and efficient season with 2,447 passing yards, 23 touchdowns, and 6 interceptions. He has thrived in Oregon’s balanced offense using quick reads and timing to complement a strong rushing attack led by Noah Whittington and Jordon Davison.
Washington’s signal caller, Demond Williams Jr, brings a dual-threat capability with over 2,700 passing yards, nearly 570 rushing yards this season, and six rushing touchdowns. He looked sharp in the win over UCLA last weekend, rushing for two scores and adding two more through the air.
Betting Trends & H2H
- Oregon is 4-0 on the road in 2025 and 5-0 overall in its last five contests.
- Washington is 5-1 at home this season and deeply comfortable in Seattle, though Oregon owns a 16-5 record in this rivalry since 2004.
- Against the spread this season, Oregon is 7-4 and Washington is 6-5.

Final Thoughts
This game looks like a test of Oregon’s balanced attack against Washington’s defense. Barring a near-perfect performance from Washington, Oregon’s combination of offensive firepower and recent success in the series makes them the safer play to win and cover as far as I’m concerned.
