Oregon is sitting at No. 3 in the AP Poll for the second week in a row.

The Ducks sleepwalked their way through a 41-19 win in Eugene Saturday and looked vulnerable on both offense and defense at times. But that lackluster performance did not drastically affect the national perception of Oregon, it would appear.

Alabama and Georgia held on to the No. 1 and No. 2 spots in the latest poll. Ohio State, which Oregon toppled in Week 2, came in at No. 11.

The Ducks topped Fresno State in Week 1, and the Bulldogs climbed to No. 18 this week.

Once again, UCLA is the only other Pac-12 team to earn a spot in the top-25. Arizona State received 25 points this week, while Oregon State received four.

Oregon also came in at No. 3 in the latest coaches poll. UCLA (No. 20) was the only other Pac-12 team to crack the top-25 of that poll, too.

Oregon travels to Stanford next Saturday for a game that is scheduled to kick off at 12:30 p.m. PT.
