Savor your Saturday! Back-to-back nail-biting matchups! It’s the first meeting of the year between two former Pac-12 teams in the Big Ten contest: UCLA Bruins and Oregon Ducks. The big clash between the Ducks and Bruins is happening on September 28 in Pasadena, California, at Rose Bowl stadium. Bruins enter the game with a record of 2-1 while the Ducks enter with 3-0, which makes the game more exciting for the fans. But who will get to celebrate the night, DeShaun Foster’s UCLA or Dan Lanning’s Oregon? For that, we have to watch the game on Saturday. Let’s see where and how to watch it.

The game Bruins vs Oregon Ducks will air on Fox at 8:00 p.m. PT. If you’re interested in watching it online, Fox also provides that facility through Fox Sports.

UCLA vs. Oregon Ducks this season game records to date

Last week, UCLA showed some life, giving the LSU Tigers a fierce first half. By halftime, the Bruins were able to tie the game at 17, but they were out of sync in the second half. Although quarterback Garbers gave the Bruins some life on offense, throwing for 281 yards on 22 of 36 completions, he had two fumbles too, which made the UCLA struggle with their run game. Comparably, the defense struggled more with the pass rush. However, the team made five sacks in its season opener, failing to record any more in the previous two games. It seems like the beginning appears promising, while the conclusion may leave Bruins disappointed.

Conversely, Oregon’s QB Gabriel enters the game with 304.7 passing yards per game, who is in charge of the Ducks. So, you can imagine how intense the game will be. Moreover, the Ducks proved their mettle two weeks ago when they defeated Oregon State 49–14. The Ducks have an extra week to scout the Bruins ahead of this “Big Ten After Dark” matchup because they are coming off a bye week. Let’s see the Ducks stay unbeaten or make their first loss against the Bruins in the 2024 CFB season.
