NO. 1 OREGON CLINCHES BERTH IN BIG 10 CHAMPIONSHIP GAME – Ducks Will Head to Indianapolis on December 7th

The No. 1 Oregon Ducks football team has officially clinched its spot in the 2024 Discover Big Ten Championship Game, set for Saturday, Dec. 7, at 5 p.m. PT at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.

Following a comprehensive evaluation of all possible scenarios over the final two weeks of regular season play across all 18 teams, the Big Ten Conference determined there are no conditions whereby the Ducks do not finish No. 1 or No. 2.

A full rundown of tiebreaker scenarios from the Big Ten Conference is available here.  

Oregon’s bench location for the game will not be known until Sunday, Dec. 1. Until that time, fans will be able to secure their quantities within each of the assigned seating areas.

Once Oregon’s bench is known, seats will be allocated in DAF priority point order, then by date of purchase order.

The priority ordering deadline is Dec. 1.

The No. 1 ranked Ducks (11-0, 8-0 Big Ten) are one of three undefeated teams remaining in the country, and their win at Wisconsin last week completed a stretch of eight consecutive Big Ten Conference games in eight weeks.

In 2011, the inaugural season of the Pac-12 Football Championship game, Oregon won the North Division and faced UCLA in Autzen Stadium winning 49-31.

In their first year of Big 10 action, the Ducks again head to the conference championship game. A win would secure a top 4 bye in the expanded 12-team playoff system.

Oregon is on a bye this weekend before closing the regular season against Washington on Saturday, Nov. 30, in Autzen Stadium.

The Ducks have clinched a spot in the title game in their first year in the Big Ten, and will play in a conference championship game for the seventh time in program history.
