00:00 There are three ranked versus ranked matchups in the Pac-12
00:08 that we will detail for you in just a moment. You look at
00:12 those Pac-12 title odds and right now USC is the favorite.
00:16 The Trojans not involved in a top 25 tilt but Joe, Oregon,
00:20 the second best price and they are on the marquee today for
00:24 that Pac-12 in the three ranked versus ranked games that we
00:28 have in Austin Stadium. The middle of the afternoon, a 330
00:32 PM Eastern time kick. The Ducks welcome in Colorado. Tenth
00:36 ranked Oregon, 19th ranked Deion Sanders and the Buffs and Joe,
00:41 last week before we broke down the Rocky Mountain Showdown,
00:44 our game of the week last week between Colorado and CSU. It
00:48 was a fourteen and a half point early look ahead at this game
00:52 for the Buffs first Pac-12 contest on the road in Eugene.
00:56 Now, Joe, it's north of three touchdown. Twenty-one and a
01:00 half in favor of Oregon. Do you think this game is more
01:04 competitive than that spread might say? I don't think so
01:06 because of the offensive line inconsistencies right now of
01:09 Colorado. We saw Colorado State pressure Shadour Sanders early
01:13 and often and was that a potential look ahead? You know,
01:16 we everybody's amazed about how Colorado State stepped up and
01:19 pushed Colorado to the limit but it was a rivalry game.
01:23 Colorado up until that point had two emotional games with
01:26 Oregon on deck and that's where I thought you saw a potential
01:30 letdown spot but for them to beat Oregon today, especially
01:33 on the road with Bo Nix on the other side, they're going to
01:36 need to run the football, Kev. They're only averaging 1.9
01:39 yards per carry. Yeah. Offensive line is allowed sixteen
01:43 sacks overall. They need to stay in manageable third down
01:46 situations. I think it could be competitive for a half but in
01:50 the second half, I do think the physicality of the Ducks takes
01:53 over. So, this has been a really tricky game to break
01:55 down. I took it Dylan Edwards rushing prop of thirty-five and
01:59 a half. They can't run the rock but he can. He's averaging 5.4
02:03 per carry. Seven, eight carries. You should be able to
02:05 get over this number and I'm not looking. I'm probably
02:08 wants your door to throw it seventy times but one of the
02:11 more underrated defensive performances of the early
02:13 season. People are going to think this is going to sound
02:15 silly but it's what the Ducks did last week to Hawaii. That
02:17 passing attack has been prolific and Schrager threw
02:20 the ball to Hawaii quarterback forty-three times under 150
02:24 yards for him in that game. This Oregon defense I think
02:27 surprises people a little bit today. I was tempted by an
02:30 under seventy but I told you guys last week about the second
02:33 half stuff with Colorado and they're going to keep coming so
02:35 I've laid off the total but if you want a big number, there's
02:38 a twenty to one number that I bet this morning. Bonics win
02:41 the Heisman Trophy. Bonics has been absolutely brilliant and
02:44 this is the Bonics game. This Colorado defense is legitimately
02:48 terrible and Bonics today has the opportunity to look passing
02:52 yards props but well above 300 passing touchdown props are two
02:56 and a half with tons of juice towards the over. If you get
02:58 350 and three with maybe some additional groundwork, 50 yards
03:02 on the ground, maybe a rushing touchdown as well. That Bonics
03:05 number could easily be sliced in half here in a prime time
03:08 spot.
