On3's top 10 Week 3 games. On3Top 10 games to watch Week 3 of college football seasonOn3 is breaking down the top 10 games of Week 3 with College Football Playoff implications across the board.

They've got it SO GOOD, and they want to kill the Golden Goose for everyone?

I think the ducks would definitely want some color contrast. Penn State fans do a great job with their whiteout and I could see it being a bit disorienting to try and pick out receivers running down the field on a deep route wearing all white with a white crown screaming and waving white pom pom. I wouldn't be surprised if Oregon does a color combo like this one or white and brings on the black pants and black helmets.

Some more comments: Ohio State's Big Ten greed could spark college football super league Ohio State pushing Big Ten revenue change unlike other leagues

Works for me as long as they take into account Football Championships ever since the league increased their math discrepancy last year. Ohio State wants Big Ten revenue change while alienating league

The only bad thing about discussing Week 3 games? It's not the weak Big Ten schedule; it's come Sunday, the regular season will be 25% over. The good thing is that heading into Week 4, with 75% of the regular season to play, OBD and USC are odds on to be 1-0 and in B1G 1st place. Friday, 9/12 - The B1G weekend kicks off with two Friday night appetizers. 2-0 No. 22 Indiana vs. Indiana State - If this were basketball and Larry Bird hadn't left the Sycamores building, State might have a chance. But that was yesterday and ... 3:30 Big Ten Network (BTN) 0-2 UCLA -15.5 vs. New Mexico - It's been frosty so far for Coach Foster, Nico, and the Bruins. The most intriguing wager - Over/Under 20,000 'fans' in the Rose Bowl. +5.5 Colorado and Coach Prime in East Coast Prime Time at Houston. 4:30 PAC time on ESPN. Saturday, 9/13 - The B1G conference season kicks off with: Our 2-0 No. 4 Beloved Ducks -27.5 at 1-1 Northwestern - Week 2 Flashback - 69 points vs. the Groveling Gundy's were the most points scored by Oregon against a Power opponent ever. The most points given up by a Mike Gundy-coached team, and the most points surrendered by the Cowboys since Oklahoma achieved statehood in 1907. 😍 Evanston: Amber to Bright Red Scoreboard Alert! Dante's 7th Circle of Hades is coming to your Campus! Prepare for Moore and Moore points to be scored. 9 AM Fox 2-0 No. 30 USC -21 at Purdue - Boilermakers coach Barry Odom is the first Purdue new hire HC to be 2-0 since Cleo A. O'Donnell in 1916. To date, the Trojans are the highest scoring team in the USA. This is the first meeting since 1998 when some guy named Drew Brees played QB for Purdue. USC won 27-17. 3:30 CBS - On his last broadcast lap, former Purdue QB Gary Danielson will be in the booth. Two final 2025 B1G P4 vs. P4 out-of-conference games (OOC). USC at Notre Dame on 10/18/25 will be the only remaining B1G OOC game to be played. (The last game in the series?) B1G Game with B1G Tradition Impact - Iowa vs. UMass - 4:30 PM BTN - It shouldn't take more than a minute for Kirk Ferentz's Iowa Hawkeyes to assert control over the UMass Minutemen on the way to Kirk's victory 206, the most games won by a Big Ten head coach. Move over, Woody! Last Saturday, UMass was upset at home by Bryant University. Take note, Mike Gundy! Bryant's football budget requires the head coach, the only coach on staff, to drive a circa-1960s Flower-Child decorated VW van loaded with the equipment, to road games. This duty becomes more noxious as the season progresses; Bryant doesn't have the money to wash unis before the season ends. 😧 Upon arrival, the coach hopes that at least 11 of the Bulldogs' 20-man roster, who have to hitchhike to away games, will show up before kickoff. Nevertheless, it would be wise to fade the -35.5 Hawkeyes; the Kinnock Stadium scoreboard isn't programmed to go above 20 points. 😁 2-0 Wisconsin +20.5 at 1-1 No. 19 Alabama - Line moved up from the Badgers +16.5. In 247 Sports Composite Roster Rankings, Bama is 2nd behind No. 1 Georgia. Bama was embarrassed in Tallahassee by FSU, and I think The Tide could Roll the Badgers. However, Wisconsin, with the 23rd-best roster ranking, will hold up and at least cover the spread. Maybe? This is the third of three B1G vs SEC 2025 OOC games, with the record at 1-1. Noon ABC 2-0 Minnesota at 2-0 Cal - Both teams have new starting QBs. Cal QB J-K Sagapolutele had a cup of coffee with the Ducks this spring before 'returning' to Cal. Sap may have the goods to save Coach Justin Wilcox's job. RS Freshman, and 3-star recruit out of Fayetteville, Arkansas, Drake Lindsey, is the new starter for the Gophers and has played well in his first two starts on the Golden Gophers' home field. This is a step up in competition for both teams, with Minnesota a slight favorite at -2.5. 7:30 PM ESPN The Rest of the (not so) B1G Week 3 games - 9 AM - No. 23 Michigan vs. Central Michigan BTN - Are marquee OOC games worth it? Michigan lost at Oklahoma. In the 21st century, Oklahoma is No. 1 in home game winning percentage. Michigan was not blown out in Norman but dropped in the AP Poll from No. 15 to No. 23. Until we see it in action, as far as we're allowed to see it, fans should be skeptical about a new playoff metric that will supposedly replace subjectivity with a 'precise calculation of schedule strength,' right? 🤪 Houston Christian at No. 35 Nebraska - FS1, Towson at Maryland - Peacock. 12:30 PM - No. 2 Penn State vs. Villanova, Michigan State vs. Youngstown State, BTN. 4 PM No.1 Ohio State vs. Ohio U. BTN, Western Michigan at No. 9 Illinois FSI Games with Playoff Impact - 9 AM No. 12 Clemson at Georgia Tech, ESPN 12:30 PM - No. 6 Georgia at No. 15 Tennessee, ABC 1:30 PM - No. 18 USF at No. 5 Miami, CW 4:30 PM - Florida at No. 3 LSU, ABC / No. 16 Texas A&M at No.8 Notre Dame, NBC Waste and Paste the Wildcats!

I wonder if they go with an opposite color contrast since Penn State will most likely be wearing white bottoms to go along with the white out; similar to last year vs. Ohio State.

They look great! That’s my only beef as well. When we mix and match the different pallets together it doesn’t quite work. I believe there is a green helmet with a black O available btw, it’s pretty boss!

Assuming we are using the same uniforms form last year (so far we are more or less a helmet) I suspect the bright yellow will be back at some point this season. We have a retro jersey set Green (top, pants and helmet), Retro Yellow (helmet, pants) and a white retro (top and pants). The other set we have is a more modern color pallet in Black, Lightning Yellow, and White. My biggest criticism of the uniforms from last year (and probably this year) is that we have two distinct color pallets and they don't mix and match really.

They look great. Great remake of retro. I do hope Lightning Yellow comes back

Probably the primary difference Penn St. will encounter is the size and speed of the Ducks compared to who they would have played so far. Not that they aren't accustom to that, playing on the B1G, but first time in a season might take a quarter to a quarter and a half to adjust properly. I see that time frame as the perfect opportunity for the Ducks to "pounce" the lions and get up by double digits early and make the "green", in a sea of white, stand out even more! 😉 But first things first. Got us some wildcats and Beavus to lay a smackdown on first! 🦆🏈🪨's

During the west side rebuild of Reser Stadium, the construction crew diminished activities during the season, and no fans sat on the west side. There was still enough seating for about 28,000 during that 2022 season which was 10-3. They had 1 loss at home to USC. They did play Montana State in Portland. And, beat Boise St,, WSU, Cal, Colorado and Oregon in Reser. That was a unique situation. Typically, games continue during construction when it is the endzones, but Oregon St had the west side shutdown. They did a pretty good job of orchestrating the seating, concessions, safety for fans, etc. I'm not sure what a similar scenario would be at Autzen...how much would north side construction impinge on endzone seating? Also, the construction timeline because I imagine Oregon's plan would be to add more "suites" on the north side, and how much time would that aspect of construction add to the timeline. 10-3 was Jonathan Smith's best season in 2022. Mike Riley was 10-4 in 2006. Since then: 8-5, 5-7, 0-2...

Ok. Apologies on the mischaracterization, Northwestern and Okie State are still part of a Power 4 conference and as crappy as they are, they are still in a conference at a different level than CUSA, CAA and the MWC. It just seems like Penn State will have had lesser competition and fewer games to get right against.

Yes, that area should've been developed 50 years ago, but, ya know, Eugene. Hopefully, it comes to full fruition it would be so nice and bring more people downtown, $$$$$$. On raint days, have a big watch party in The Pit!

Yes, I heard that, too. Thanks for link.

Thanks. It would be cool to have it smack dab on campus.

Three winners in a row. I’m loving it!

I disagree with your characterization of the teams. There are NO Power 5 programs or conferences, as it is only Power 4 conferences, and it has been that way for at least two years. In the past we referred to the other conferences as "Group-of-Five" leagues, but now with the "new" Pac-12...it is "Group-of-Six." The difference in the teams is clear, as they cannot afford what we can with their media contract for Beavis at 10 million a year versus our payout for 2025 of 54 million. As for your question...I agree that three easy teams and a bye does not fully prepare Penn State for Oregon, but four easy teams for us does not help us either. Our guys would have a much tougher intersquad scrimmage than any of these four games. I wish we had at least one major challenge before meeting the 'Lions, but it is what it is.

Maybe but DM will have to prove it against better competition (e.g., Penn State, potential opponents in the B1G Conference Championship Game and playoffs/bowl game - assuming we make them). Lots of football left to play. Dream scenario - The Oregon Ducks win the 2025-26 College Football National Championship and Dante Moore goes #1 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Dan Lanning Reacts to Oregon Ducks Fans Asking for Inflatable Duck AppearanceWading above the White River rapids in Indiana, an inflatable version of the Oregon Duck mascot stunned fans at Big Ten media days last year. Dan Lanning answers if the inflatable will make a visit outside of Martin Stadium for Oregon vs Northwestern. Though Lanning didn't consider the massive balloon, the Northwestern Wildcats sure did. Northwestern head coach David Braun even addressed the potential of the giant Duck floating outside of Martin Stadium when previewing the matchup against Oregon. “I have thought about that,” Braun said. “We’re going to have to figure something out. We can’t have any ducks floating around on game day.” The venue is surrounded on three sides by Lake Michigan, and is a part of Northwestern's Lakefront Athletics and Recreation Complex making it the perfect venue to bring a giant water-based statement if you're an opposing team. “It’s been amazing seeing duck fans so quickly adopt into the Oregon flock. Oregon is always ready to make a big splash and is consistently innovative with their marketing, and we wanted to do something that would turn heads," said Jacobi Mehringer and Andrew Chhour of Oregon-based ad agency Wieden + Kennedy, the minds behind the giant Duck. The marketing agency also teased future projects with the program. We’re going to keep showing up in mighty different ways in the coming months,” the agency said shortly after the Indianapolis promotion. “So stay tuned.” Oregon Ducks On SIDan Lanning Reacts to Oregon Ducks Fans Asking for Inflat...Just a year ago, an inflatable Oregon Duck drifting on the White River in Indianapolis shocked fans visiting the Ducks' first Big Ten Media Days. Now, with No.

After winning a "Natty" or two and if the Riverwalk park ever reaches its full funding and potential; I can definitely see something like this scenario coming to fruition. A "block party"/Saturday market vibe with monitors throughout the Riverwalk park live streaming the game. Would work Great for September/October games...not so sure about November...never rains at Autzen stadium but everywhere else it does! Fun stuff to contemplate until the narrative changes to favorite Natty contender, after our takedown of Penn St during their "whiteout" the end of the month. Go Quackers!

These are sharp. Whomever is picking the uniforms this year has done a terrific job so far, IMO. I’m curious to see what they pick for the Penn State game. Do they go with the all whites (aka storm trooper uniforms) for the white out?
