The matchup with Texas Tech on Saturday once looked like it could be a top 25 matchup before the season began, but after the Red Raiders' loss to Wyoming that won't happen. That opens the door for the Oregon defense to make its first big statement in 2023.

On today's episode of Locked On Ducks, Spencer McLaughlin takes an early look at the matchup in Lubbock taking place this Saturday. He also goes into what to expect from the Ducks defensively based on what appears possible against this Texas Tech team as shown by Wyoming last week.

Some notable Ducks who have been injured are back at practice this week, which will affect Oregon's rotations on both sides of the ball. Plus, a look at what Colorado's week 1 success means for the college football world in the transfer portal era.
