    Nick Bartlett’s Week 9 SuperWest Fearless CFB Predictions

     

    No. 8 Oregon at No. 13 Utah
    Saturday, Oct 28
    12:30 pm PT, FOX

     

    Utah’s story this year has proven heartwarming. Most people wrote them off without Cam Rising and Brant Kuithe—me too.

    Nevertheless, the Utes have continued to win and are somehow amongst the favorites to win the conference.

     

    Utah’s scoring defense is ranked 11th in the nation, and they will need to pace themselves if they’d like to hold up against Oregon.

    If UO can’t beat Utah with the Utes missing their two best players, I don’t want to hear anything from Eugene for the rest of the year.

     

    Bo Nix has improved in big games, but he usually falls short. Not this time.

     

    Ducks by 11.

     

    Oregon 41, Utah 30

    Scouting the Utes: 5 questions, prediction with a Utah reporter

     

    How do you see it playing out and what’s your score prediction?

     
    Newman: “Oregon is not USC, mostly because it is balanced and plays defense. We’re going to find out a little more about the Ducks, who have played a manageable schedule to this point, but now run into a high-level defense at what might be the Pac-12′s toughest road environment."
     
    'All of that said, I like Bo Nix and the veteran savvy he brings, and I don’t know that Bryson Barnes is ready to deal with an opponent of this caliber, even with the recent success. Oregon 31, Utah 14″

    Oregon vs. Utah: 'Tale of the Tape' for No. 8 Ducks vs. No. 13 Utes

     

    The intensity is being ramped up once again for fans of the Oregon Ducks.

     

    After a relatively laid-back week against the Washington State Cougars, Dan Lanning and his team travel down to Salt Lake City this weekend to take on the No. 13 Utah Utes in a high-intensity game that will draw the eyes of the nation to Rice-Eccles Stadium.

     

    ESPN’s ‘College GameDay’ will be there, and the No. 8 Ducks will have an opportunity to prove that they can get the job done against a top-rated team on the road, setting themselves up in a great position to make it to the Pac-12 Championship Game, and potentially the College Football Playoff as well

     

    It’s not going to be easy, but based on the matchup, this is a game that the Ducks should be able to win if they stay true to form and play their own game. To get a closer look at the specific areas where Oregon will need to perform well, let’s break down the tape and look at the numbers on paper.

    College football predictions Week 9: Florida-Georgia, Oregon-Utah lead top picks

    Final picks for this week's biggest games.

     

    OREGON -7 AT UTAH

    12056536.jpg?fit=bounds&crop=620:320,off

     

    Hummer (Oregon -7) — This is a tough spot for Oregon. The Utes just don’t lose at home. They’ve won 18 straight and 29 of their last 30 in Salt Lake City, a stretch that includes multiple wins against top 10 Oregon teams. But this one should be different. As well coached as Utah is and as good as Utah’s defense is, it doesn’t have the offensive firepower to keep up with Oregon.

     

    The Utes rank 101st nationally in yards per play. Oregon ranks third. Yes, Utah’s toughness often closes the talent gap in this series – in fact, the Utes have often just run over the Ducks in recent years – but I think Oregon’s offensive firepower is too much to overcome. … Oregon 28, Utah 20.

     

    Crawford (Utah +7) — Betting against Utah is dangerous, especially with the Utes playing at home, where they've won 18 straight — so we're not doing it here. The Ducks have more firepower offensively, but considering this one's a must-win for both teams with a lot on the line, I'll take the home team getting a touchdown. This is not a preferred play by any means in Week 9, but I feel there's value here with the rare opportunity you can get the Utes with points in Salt Lake City. ... Oregon 31, Utah 30.

    This is interesting considering Oregon plays Michigan in the 2024 season.  This is before we were moving to the Big 10.
