Oregon Ducks 2012-2013 Schedule

We're playing them again next season? I thought we switched off seasons because we didn't play UCLA this year.

I believe it goes 2 years on and 2 years off. So 2013 and 2014 we would have UCLA Home and Away but Dodge USC.

Bleacher report has Oregon losing to USC by a field goal due to "no DT or LMJ" and "lolBarkley and recievers".

If Oregon does go undefeated, then they may get #3, but remember, USC is our only quality opponent, maybe Stanford and UW, and the slimmiest chance being Utah. USC has Notre Dame and the same teams I mentioned above with ORegon as their quality opponent.

Notre Dame was 8-5 last year... unranked again and pretty mediocre. They matter because the Irish have a lot of fans (ratings).

Is it possible for USC and the Ducks to be #1/#2 by the time of the Pac-12 Title Game?

It's possible but unlikely. There are only 3 game weekends between the Colosseum matchup and the P-12TG. Even if both teams boatrace the rest of their schedules, whoever loses that Coliseum game will probably be dropped well down in the rankings and won't have enough time, or strength of schedule, to recover and be #2 again.
