With Oregon on a bye week, check out how former Ducks fared across college football in Week 6.
In a week in which the Oregon Ducks enjoyed a bye, a number of players who once donned a Ducks jersey or were committed to the program stood out across the country.
Wide receiver Dallas Wilson, who was committed to the Ducks but flipped to Florida due to family reasons, was the headliner. He debuted with the Gators on Saturday. The 6-foot-3, 213-pound five-star made an instant impact, having a significant hand in Florida's upset victory over Texas.
Cal quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele, also once committed to Oregon, continued his true freshman campaign as the Golden Bears' starter. Entering the thick of ACC play, he'd led Cal to a 4-1 record ahead of their meeting with Duke on Saturday night.
A pair of former Ducks performed extremely well in UCLA's upset victory over Penn State, as well as a former Oregon running back reemerging in the San Diego State backfield with one of the best games of his career.
