The Ducks have lost four straight games, and their national standing has evaporated along with the slide.
Among the programs USA Today's Paul Myerberg ranks higher than the Ducks are Old Dominion, Colorado State, Central Florida, Akron, Western Kentucky, Army, Ohio and, well, you get the idea.
Myerberg has the Ducks higher than the Beavers. At this point of this season, I wouldn't.
I saw Oregon State beat Cal Saturday night by playing with the pride, poise and passion that seem to be lacking in Eugene.
