After hammering Cal 63-19 on Saturday, the Oregon Ducks are 8-1 and have a clear track to the College Football Playoff. Or do they? James Crepea and Bill Oram break down the state of the Ducks, as well as Bo Nix’s Heisman chances.

Here are some highlights from this new episode of the Oregonian Sports Podcast:

· After beating Utah, Bill said Bo Nix should be the Heisman frontrunner, then watched in horror as his first pass was picked off against Cal. Then Nix proceeded to tally six TDs.

· The doomsday scenario that could keep the Pac-12 out of the College football playoff, even if the Ducks win out.

· Why James doesn’t think the Big Ten scheduling format is equitable

· How Oregon and Oregon State can keep the rivalry going in 2024
