Rankings from AP Poll

After five seasons as an independent following the dissolution of the Pacific Coast Conference (PCC), Oregon joined the AAWU this season, as did Oregon State. The Ducks played only one of the four conference teams from the state of California, a 10–8 loss to Stanford at Portland, decided with a late field goal.[1][2]

With a perfect record and a No 7 ranking after six games (and a ten-game winning streak),[1] Oregon won just one of its final four. The Oregon State Beavers won the season-ending Civil War by a point at home with a late touchdown.[3] The game was shown on closed-circuit television in Eugene (McArthur Court) and Portland (Memorial Coliseum), with admission at two dollars.[4][5][6][7] The rivalry game loss ended Oregon's season, as the AAWU/Pac-8 (and Big Ten) did not allow a second bowl team until the 1975 season.

Oregon was led on the field by All-American quarterback Bob Berry, who finished 13th in the balloting for the Heisman Trophy, just behind Joe Namath (Alabama) and Gale Sayers (Kansas).[8][9] A fifth-year senior, he had already been selected in the 1964 NFL Draft (and AFL Draft) in late 1963.

Oregon football made its first-ever trip by jet this season, taking a Boeing 720 to Indiana in mid-November.[10]
