College Football:

Oregon’s narrow win over Boise State caused a slide in the AP poll again. Associated Press voters dropped them to 9th after Saturday’s 27-24 victory at Autzen. The 2 - 0 Ducks remain at number 6 in the Coaches poll though, and Boise State moved up in the ‘also receiving votes’ rankings. After the last second win coach Dan Lanning called it a relief and that the team had plenty of things to fix. You can get more on the Oregon Ducks Insider daily podcast on KBND dot com. 

The Beavers’ 21 - 0 win Saturday night against San Diego State was historic. It was the team’s first shutout on the road in 41 years.  Oregon State’s defense allowed just seven 1st downs in shutting down the Aztec offense. Head coach Trent Bray said he liked the team’s performance on the early season test that takes them to a 2 - 0 start.
