Oregon Ducks win Pac-12 North, secure rematch with Utah in conference championship

Oregon Duck fans can’t say that they won the Pac-12 North Division for a second-straight year after beating the Oregon State Beavers on Saturday, but they can boast about the opportunity to win a third-straight Pac-12 Championship next week.

The Ducks dispatched with the Beavers, 38-29, winning the Pac-12 North for the second time in the past three years. While Oregon won the conference championship last year, they technically didn’t win the north division, and only played in the title game because the Washington Huskies, who won the north, were unable to play in the game due to a COVID outbreak.

Now, the Ducks have secured a spot in the Pac-12 Championship game next week, where they will get a rematch against the Utah Utes in Las Vegas on December 3rd.

It was Utah who embarrassed the Ducks a week ago, winning 38-7 in Salt Lake City, knocking Oregon out of contention for the College Football Playoff.

The Ducks will surely be looking for revenge, and hoping to become the first three-peat winner of the conference since Oregon did so from 2009-2011.
