T.M. Selection: Oregon Ducks

I like the Oregon Ducks to win this game against the Arizona Wildcats on Saturday. Since losing to Georgia in week 1, Oregon has looked very strong. In their last game against Stanford, QB Bo Nix was tremendous, throwing for 161 and 2 TDs, with 141 on the ground and 2 more TDs. He's now got 1261 passing yards on the year with 12 TDs and just 3 INTs. Plus he's got 5 more TDs on the ground. Arizona on the other hand, just beat a very bad Colorado team. Although they won by 23, their defense was not that good in the win. The week prior to that, they were picked apart by Cal-Berkeley who are not nearing as strong as this Oregon side. Dating back a few seasons now, the Wildcats are only 2-18 in their last 20 games played against Pac-12 opponents. Oregon though, is 8-2 in their last 10 played against conference opponents as well. AZ has sort of just jumped out of the sky, passing all game to try and keep up with these teams. I expect this game to be high scoring, but for the Ducks to stay undefeated in conference play here in week 6. Give me Oregon on Saturday Night.

T.M. Prediction: 47-24 Ducks.
