Oregon to face Arizona in another night game in the desert

The Pac-12 Conference announced Monday morning that Oregon and Arizona are scheduled for a 6 p.m. kickoff in the desert Oct. 8. The contest will be televised on the Pac-12 Network. This will mark the second time the Ducks will appear on the network.

It’s been four years since Oregon has made a trip down to Tucson and that last venture into the desert wasn’t kind as the Wildcats upset Oregon 44-15.

But here in 2022, these start times have been favorable for the Ducks, except for the upcoming 8 p.m. kickoff with Stanford this week. But with a day game in Pullman in the middle of September and now this night game in Tucson to avoid the scorching heat, Oregon doesn’t have a lot to complain about.

The Ducks know it could be a lot worse.
