The Oregon Ducks’ 2027 class is spread across the map this weekend, and 20 of the program’s 25 commitments are set to suit up. The action starts Thursday, with two of Oregon’s most notable pledges getting an early jump before a busy Friday slate takes over.
Zane Rowe and Guyer High School are back in action Thursday at 5 p.m. PT against Wakeland High School.
Rowe, a four-star defensive lineman, comes in off a bye week after Guyer’s trip to Oregon for the Ducks’ Friday win against Portland State. A little later that night, quarterback commit Will Mencl will lead Chandler at Brophy College Prep at 7 p.m.
PT.
Friday brings one of the week’s most interesting Oregon-on-Oregon matchups. Wide receiver Malachi Garlington and Nelson High School visit West Linn, where they’ll run into fellow Ducks commit Josiah Molden, the four-star cornerback pledge from the home side. It’s one of the cleaner headline games on the board for Oregon fans, with two commits sharing the same field in the same state.
Another Northwest showdown features defensive lineman Achilles Reyna and Rainier Beach heading to O’Dea, a game with multiple Power 4 players in the trenches. Reyna is coming off a strong outing, recording six tackles and a sack in Rainier Beach’s 25-23 win at Seattle Prep.
Elsewhere, edge rusher Rashad Streets and Millbrook face Rolesville in a high-profile North Carolina matchup. Streets posted seven tackles, two tackles for loss and a half-sack in Millbrook’s 42-0 win at Athens Drive last week. Rolesville brings plenty of talent, including Nebraska running back commit Amir Brown and 2028 tight end Henry Evans, who has several Power 4 offers.
Here’s the full rundown of the Oregon commits in action this weekend:
Xavier Sabb and Glassboro travel to Holy Spirit on Friday at 3 p.m. PT.
Sabb is coming off a huge performance in a 41-6 win at Cedar Creek, finishing with 13 catches for 136 yards and two touchdowns, plus a 48-yard touchdown run, 28 punt return yards and a tackle. Holy Spirit has no ranked prospects.
Cameron Wagner and St. Joseph-Ogden visit Monticello on Friday at 5 p.m.
PT. Wagner had two tackles in last week’s 68-8 win over Rantoul.
Monticello has no ranked prospects.
Gus Corsair and Hays play Garden City on Friday at 5 p.m. PT after a 20-14 loss to Bentonville last week. Garden City has no ranked prospects.
Avery Michael and Turlock head to Tracy on Friday at 7 p.m. PT. Turlock is coming off a 49-8 loss at Clovis West, while Tracy enters at 4-0 and has no ranked prospects.
George VanSandt and Central Catholic travel to Jesuit on Friday at 7 p.m. PT after a 41-14 loss to Graham-Kapowsin. Jesuit has no ranked prospects.
Sam Ngata and Olympus take on Brighton on Friday at 7 p.m. PT after a 23-10 loss at Alta. Brighton has no ranked prospects.
Hayden Stepp and Bishop Gorman face Faith Lutheran on Friday at 7 p.m. PT.
Bishop Gorman, Nevada’s No. 1 team, is coming off a 25-8 win at Mater Dei. Faith Lutheran is No. 5 in the state and is led by three-star UNLV safety commit Jaden Mason, who also plays on offense.
Tae Walden and Collierville travel to Bartlett on Friday at 5 p.m. PT after a 55-7 win over Arlington.
Walden had two receptions for 62 yards and a touchdown, recovered a fumble for a touchdown, added one PBU and piled up 105 return yards. Bartlett is led by 2028 composite four-star wide receiver Pierce Washington, who has 22 scholarship offers, including one from Oregon.
And in another in-state clash, Josiah Molden and West Linn host Nelson on Friday at 7 p.m. PT. Molden and Garlington will be on opposite sides of the same matchup, giving Oregon fans a direct look at two of the state’s committed standouts.
Across the schedule, Oregon’s commits are scattered through Thursday and Friday games, with several facing ranked programs or other notable prospects. It’s a packed weekend for DuckTerritory to track, and a good snapshot of how broad Oregon’s 2027 recruiting footprint already is.

USCs Upset Shot Vs Oregon May Hinge On One Injury Question
The injury reports are in ahead of Oregons conference game with USC, and both sides are dealing with absences that could shape how the night unfolds. The Ducks will be without Jeremiah McClellan, Trent Ferguson, Brayden Platt, and Simeon Price, thinning out depth in areas they would prefer to keep intact this late in the season.
USCs list is just as notable, with Jahkeem Stewart and Trent Mosley among the Trojans dealing with injuries and several others tagged questionable or probable. For a matchup that already carries upset intrigue, availability may end up mattering as much as scheme, and the Trojans chances of making this one interesting could come down to who is able to answer the bell when kickoff arrives.

USC Heads Into Oregon Showdown With One Key Availability Twist
USC heads into Saturdays matchup with Oregon carrying a familiar kind of late-week uncertainty, as the latest Big Ten availability report lists several Trojans across the out, doubtful and questionable designations. The game at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum carries plenty of weight on its own, and the Ducks will be watching the injury picture as closely as anything else before kickoff on NBC.
Lincoln Riley also offered an update on defensive tackle Jahkeem Stewart, saying the freshman is making progress in his recovery but still does not have a definite return date. For Oregon, that leaves one more variable in a game where the Ducks already know theyll need to prepare for a Trojans defense that could look different depending on how the final availability calls break.

Oregon's USC Game Could Put Andrew Olesh In A Huge Spotlight
With Kendre Harrison and Jamari Johnson both listed as questionable for Oregons matchup with USC, the Ducks may need to lean on a young tight end room in a game that already carries plenty of weight. Dan Lanning said he expects both to play, but the uncertainty keeps Andrew Olesh very much in the conversation, and the redshirt freshman has already shown he can handle real snaps with two starts this season.
Olesh has quietly turned himself into a credible next man up, with noticeable growth as both a pass blocker and a receiver. If the Ducks end up needing him in a bigger role against USC, it would be another meaningful step in his development and a chance to earn even more trust in one of Oregons biggest games of the season.
