Duck Stuff: Morning Mud

• John Hunt reports on the rankings and Chip Kelly's weekly Sunday afternoon teleconference.

The Ducks fell from eighth to 13th in the BCS standings (now fairly meaningless for Oregon). They slipped seven spots in The Associated Press Top 25 to 14th and eight spots in the USA Today coaches' poll to No. 16.

And in each, the Ducks were ranked behind USC, a team they beat 47-20 eight days earlier.

"We didn't do a real good job of tackling," Kelly said. "We had guys there with a chance to wrap him up and take him down. He's a real good running back, and it's going to take a couple guys get to the ball, and we didn't have enough people around the football. I think our guys were there to make plays, but we just didn't make them."

• Rob Moseley sets the stage for the ASU - Oregon game. Rob lays out the NCAA stats between the two teams and notes it will be a 7:20 pm kick-off which is being carried live by ESPN.

GO DUCKS!
