00:00 (upbeat music)
00:02 - Talking about sunglasses and Deion Sanders
00:04 heading out to the West Coast to take on Oregon.
00:07 Now, if we take a look at FanDuel,
00:08 a 21 point line in this game,
00:11 a total listed at 70 and a half.
00:13 Now I wanna ask you this question too,
00:14 because we are handicappers, we're gonna analyze.
00:16 Not to say, "Hey, there's gonna be a lot of folks
00:18 in this game."
00:19 I think Oregon's take total over 45 and a half.
00:23 The reason for this, Ben, from my side,
00:25 is the gloves are off with Colorado.
00:27 They are braggadocious and deserve it,
00:29 and rightfully so, all eyes on them.
00:31 Other institutions, including Oregon and other teams
00:34 in the Pac-12, are waiting here.
00:36 So when we get late in this football game,
00:38 if you're up 14, 21, or 28,
00:40 they'll hang another seven on Colorado
00:42 to quote unquote, "Teach them a lesson."
00:44 That's the angle I'm playing this game.
00:46 I think you get points,
00:47 I think it's gonna be a lot of fun,
00:49 but I think Oregon and Bo Nix,
00:50 up and down the field like a race car,
00:52 I think they hang close to 50 in this game.
00:54 Talk to me about Colorado and Oregon.
00:57 - Yeah, what is this conversation going to be like
01:00 for Colorado that has been the focus,
01:02 and rightfully so, of the college football season
01:05 in the opening three weekends,
01:07 if the Buffs do lose this game?
01:08 And as the odds anticipate,
01:11 lose it by a pretty hefty margin.
01:13 Now, DLS, I'm not sure Colorado's going to lose
01:15 by more than 21 points.
01:17 I do think it is double digits, though,
01:19 in favor of Oregon.
01:21 Don't love the number,
01:22 I love what you're talking about with Oregon
01:24 and what they are going to do offensively.
01:27 Oregon is also really good in Autzen.
01:29 It is one of the best atmospheres in all of college football,
01:32 specifically in the Pac-12,
01:34 and they make good on being in Eugene.
01:36 Seven and one against the spread
01:38 as a home favorite last year in 2022.
01:42 DLS, Colorado won the football game in double overtime,
01:45 but when you look at that spread, you wouldn't know it.
01:47 It was 14 and a half, the early look ahead line,
01:50 in favor of the Ducks.
01:51 Now at a full three touchdowns, 21 points.
01:55 Colorado has deficiencies on defense.
01:57 They gave up nearly 500 total yards
01:59 against Colorado State last weekend, 42 points to TCU.
02:03 They were the worst scoring defense in the country.
02:06 The defense has a lot to still learn,
02:09 and they will be without Travis Hunter in this matchup
02:11 and for a few more weeks.
02:13 I think he was one of those band-aids, DRS,
02:15 making incredible plays defensively for Deion Sanders
02:19 that maybe safeguarded some of what the issues
02:22 have been defensively for the bus.
02:24 I think Oregon names its number,
02:26 but I think Colorado is going to score as well.
02:29 I would focus more on the Ducks team total
02:31 or a Bo Nix rushing yards prop when that comes out as well.
