[Born2BKing]

The No. 10 Oregon Ducks (3-0) are turning the page from their 55-10 win over the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors in week 3 as they prepare to face the No. 19 Colorado Buffaloes at home in week 4 to open Pac-12 conference play.

Bo Nix was in his usual form against the Rainbow Warriors, completing 21 of 27 passes for 247 yards and three touchdowns, while Oregon's run game bounced back after a hot-and-cold day against Texas Tech. Noah Whittington led the charge out of the backfield, logging 80 of the Ducks' 210 total rushing yards.

The Ducks had a dominant day on defense as well, limiting Hawaii to just 201 yards of offense and 14.3% conversion rate (2/14) on third down. Senior cornerback Khyree Jackson snagged his second interception in as many games and the defense recorded two sacks.

Meanwhile, Colorado outlasted Colorado State in week 3 and came away with a 43-35 win at home in Boulder.

Heading into this week's game, Oregon is the heavy betting favorite by almost three touchdowns, according to Sports Illustrated SportsBook.

Spread: Oregon -21.5 (-105) | Colorado +21.5 (-120)

Damn i would use Fan Duel 50% profit boost to bet $25 on CU +21.5 but with Hunter out Oregon might score on every possession.

Hard not to have colorado as underdogs after fighting for their lives last week and no hunter for the next 3 weeks

Splitting wins against oregon and USC and winning a bowl game would still probably be enough to make the playoffs, winning both would be

We'll just have to see what they are made of

After seeing their first 3 games, I just can't bring myself to believe that Oregon won't score 60+ points. I just can't think of the scenario but I'm trying.
