So, let's try this again.
For the third time this year I'll be ranking Oregon's 2020 football games from easiest to most difficult. The third iteration of Oregon's schedule was released on Saturday morning. Now we know the details of Oregon's six-game conference-only schedule.
Things sure have changed over the past few months. Back on May 22, I compiled a list ranking the toughest games on Oregon's schedule for the 2020 season. Well, you can essentially toss that list into the trash heap now. You can do the same with the one I put together after the 10-game schedule release in late July.
The Ducks have gone from playing 12 regular season games to 10 conference-only games to where we are now — six conference-only games beginning on Nov. 7 when the Ducks host Stanford. The Ducks will also play again on Dec. 18 against the opponent who finishes in identical position in the Pac-12 South.
The cancellation of non-conference games probably hit Oregon fans harder than any other fanbase in the league. Oregon was set to play arguably its toughest out-of-conference slate in school-history with games against three-time reigning FCS champion South Dakota State, blue-blood Ohio State and an upstart Hawaii program on the books.
The expectations remain sky high for the 2020 season. The Ducks remain the popular pick to win the Pac-12. In order to earn a second consecutive Pac-12 title, the Ducks will need to take care of business early and often this fall. The Ducks have not won consecutive Pac-12 titles in nearly 10 years, since winning titles in 2009, 2010 and 2011 under Chip Kelly.
Today, we've ranked the six scheduled games from least difficult to most difficult. This year's season consists of three conference home games, and three conference road games. In total, the Ducks play six times prior to Dec. 18.
