The Ducks are out onto the field at the Rose Bowl in their uniforms — all-white uniforms, including last year's Alamo Bowl jersey — for today's 12:30 p.m. PT kickoff against UCLA on FOX.
There are six changes to the travel squad today from Oregon's previous road trip to WSU, including senior offensive lineman Jake Fisher, who warmed up as the starter today at left tackle. Matt Pierson looks like he'll take the first snap at right tackle, with Tyrell Crosby backing up both spots.
Also on hand is defensive lineman Arik Armstead, who missed the second half last week due to an injury. But Armstead is not in uniform today.
Oregon also gets a boost to the depth at tight end and inside linebacker with Evan Baylis and Danny Mattingly, respectively, on the trip. Two guys travelled who have yet to play — safety Khalil Oliver, who is on track to redshirt, and backup long snapper Devin Melendez.
