  1. Inside college football’s most impenetrable units. 1. OREGON DUCKS Pass-Blocking Grade: 95.4 Pressures Allowed: 7 Sacks Allowed: 1.0 Oregon's offensive line has been an absolute beast this season. The Ducks have allowed just seven pressures all season, while every starter along their offensive line boasts a pass-blocking grade of 80+. Right tackle Ajani Cornelius ranks second to Kansas State's Cooper Beebee with a pass-blocking grade of 89.9. Neither Cornelius nor left guard Marcus Harper II have allowed a pressure this season. Center Jackson Powers-Johnson and right guard Steven Jones have allowed one apiece, while left tackle Josh Conerly Jr. has ceded three.

  3. 7 major questions for Oregon Ducks as Deion Sanders comes to town It has been quite a while since we saw this much hype for a football game played inside Autzen Stadium. You could say that the Oregon Ducks’ game vs. the Washington Huskies last year — Oregon was No. 6, and Washington was No. 25 — but even that didn’t come close to living up to the level of anticipation that this week has brought. A few weeks earlier, it was the No. 10 Ducks who hosted No. 9 UCLA with ESPN’s College GameDay in town, and even then, I would wager to say that this upcoming showdown — with Deion ‘Coach Prime’ Sanders coming to Eugene — is more of a spectacle. So with a lot of eyes tuned in, it’s safe to say that the Ducks have a lot of questions to answer, both on a macro and micro level. While the nation will be looking to see how good this team can be in general, there are more minute details that we are focused on. Here are our biggest questions for the Ducks going into the weekend: Oregon Football: Major questions for Ducks ahead of Colorado game DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Will Oregon slow down Shedeur Sanders? Can Oregon’s DL and OL dominate the game? Will Bo Nix shine on the national stage? Our biggest questions for Saturday.
  4. ESPN's SP+ predicts the score of Oregon's Pac-12 opener vs. Colorado Bill Connelly’s SP+ is predicting a rout this weekend in Eugene. No. 10 Oregon welcomes No. 19 Colorado to Autzen Stadium for both teams’ opening game of conference play. It’s a matchup that was earmarked on the calendar way back when Deion Sanders took the Colorado job, but with CU’s hot start to the season, the hype around the game has elevated it to must-watch TV. Connelly’s predictive model is calling for a 46-17 Oregon win. It gives the Buffaloes just a 5% chance of pulling off the upset and keeping their unbeaten record intact.

  8. The A-Bomb: Can we PLEASE show Coach Prime the real Autzen? We all know how this stadium can be, but it’s been a hot second. Saturday will mark the first visit to Autzen Stadium by Colorado head coach Deion “Primetime” Sanders. It will also, in all real likelihood, mark his only visit. With Oregon and Colorado heading to different conferences next season, this will be the lone trip to Eugene for Sanders, who’s already showing what kind of difference he can make at a Power 5 school. It will be a 12:30 kickoff, the weather looks promising, and fans have been encouraged to participate in Autzen’s first ever “stripe-out” where alternating sections will wear either yellow or green.

  17. WASHINGTON — Sitting cross-legged in his Texas boots, Ted Cruz gazed out at the more than 75 FBS athletic directors before him while contemplating an answer to the question just asked: What are the odds that a college athletic bill governing name, image and likeness (NIL) passes Congress soon? Eight seconds of silence passed. “I think the odds are 60-40 we get it done,” Cruz, the Republican senator from Texas, finally whispered into the microphone. A full-throated applause erupted from his audience. And then some 15 minutes later, in a rebuttal fitting of the divide in Congress, Cruz’s Democratic counterpart in the U.S. Senate sent any expectations plummeting. “The chances are not 60-40,” said Chris Murphy (D-Conn.). “They are less than 50-50 that Congress does something comprehensive in the short term.” The discord among congressional lawmakers played out here Tuesday in front of some of the leading administrators in college sports. Over the course of 90 minutes, three U.S. senators and a Congresswoman separately delivered varying degrees of opinions and prognostications on the passage of college athlete legislation. Will Congress find middle ground and pass NIL legislation? Ted Cruz thinks it's '60-40.' Others are less optimistic.
