The Oregon Ducks remained ranked at #16 in the Associated Press media poll while moving up a spot to #17 in the USA Today/Coaches rankings.
While Oregon State has not returned to the top 25 in either poll, they have gained support in both. The Beavers would be ranked 36th in the AP poll and tied for 33rd with Stanford (who they defeated Saturday) in the Coaches' poll.

Locomotives Top Redwoods In UFL Debut
At Las Vegas:
