Oregon Rises in AP Poll but Stays Put in FanPulse

#7 in AP but #11 in FanPulse Poll

The Ducks may be the No. 7 team according to the AP Poll, but according to the SB Nation voters they are still just outside the top 10.

The Oregon Ducks remained at #11 in the most recent SB Nation Fanpulse poll, leap frogged by the only other PAC-12 team in the top 25, #9 Utah. Oklahoma stayed above Oregon despite losing to Kansas State but Auburn dropped down just below the Ducks despite their week one victory.

For a fifth week in a row, ATQ poll voters unanimously agreed that Coach Mario Cristobal is taking the Oregon Ducks in the right direction. To be expected after surviving a raid by Mike Leach and the Washington State Cougars in dramatic fashion. The four-game losing streak to Wazzu is over and Duck fans could not be more pleased.

For what it’s worth, ATQ voters placed Oregon at #7 on average, just ahead of Georgia and behind Florida. Perhaps some minds will be changed if the Ducks are able to beat USC at the Coliseum.

Meanwhile, Kansas States upset over Oklahoma was voted the most surprising event, and the loss opens up a long-shot opportunity for a PAC-12 team in the playoff, namely either Oregon or Utah.
