For the first time since 2017, the Oregon ducks (3-2) will face-off against the Nebraska Cornhuskers (5-1) at Autzen Stadium for the first 8:05 p.m. PT kickoff since the 2022 season. The Ducks, coming off a rough 17-15 home loss against the No. 12 UCLA Bruins, are looking for a fresh reset after coach Dan Lanning promised there's "going to be some changes" on the offense.

It's quite tough to beat the Ducks under Autzen's floodlights, as the team is 28-3 at home under in the Lanning era, including a perfect 10-0 in home night games, which in part prompted Nebraska coach Matt Rhule to put up later sleeping hours for his players to adjust to the evening start.

The Cornhuskers enter Autzen angry, as the previous week yielded their only loss of the season so far to the No. 5 Indiana Hoosiers at home, 20-17.

During that close game, Nebraska's quarterback senior Anthony Colandrea (the UNLV transfer replacement for now-Oregon Ducks' quarterback junior Dylan Raiola) put up 264 passing yards, 25-43 in accuracy with one interception. Nebraska's ground game put up 128 yards compared to Indiana's 65 rushing yards, and the Nebraska defense held Indiana to go 1-10 in third down attempts.

Below is a live updates breakdown of the game. The latest updates are at the top.

OREGON UNIFORMS

For what feels like a "reset" game for the Ducks, Oregon is wearing a classic of the "Generation O" era fit for a night at Autzen Stadium: a black "Fly Era" uniform with black undergarments, black shoes, green pants, and a green helmet with a black wing.

In Oregon Ducks on Sports Illustrated's breakdown of the uniform, its noted that this release did not come with a video featuring a former Oregon game, but instead featured senior edge rusher Teitum Tuioti posing in front of Autzen Stadium.

MATCH-UP HISTORY

The Cornhuskers lead over the Ducks in the history of this match-up, with a 6-2 historical record. Oregon's last 42-35 win came at home in 2017, with the other victory from the Ducks occurring in 1953 on the road at Lincoln, Nebraska.

These historic teams began playing each other in 1952, where Nebraska pulled out a 13-25 win in Portland, Oregon back when the Ducks traveled up the I-5 corridor to play some of their games. Since that first game, the other five Nebraska wins all came from match-ups in Nebraska.
