The Buffaloes will be a bit behind the eight-ball in this game as they are without two-way player Travis Hunter. However, the offense has played exceptionally, averaging 41.3 points on 479 total yards per game this year.

Junior quarterback Shedeur Sanders is playing beyond expectations as he is 107-of-136 (78.7 completion percentage) for 1,251 passing yards with 10 touchdown passes and one interception while also running one touchdown in.

The Buffs offense has been incredible, converting on 47.83 percent of third downs and 66.67 percent of fourth down plays.

They have been doing well in forcing mistakes, having recorded six interceptions and three forced fumbles as a team.

The Oregon Ducks have been incredible with the ball, averaging 58 points on 587 total yards of offense. They are dominating behind senior quarterback Bo Nix as the five-year starter is 76-of-98 (77.6 completion percentage) for 893 yards with eight touchdowns without an interception.

Defensively, the Ducks are giving up 15.7 points on 285.7 total yards per game to make things frustrating for the opposition. The secondary plays well, with four interceptions and 11 pass deflections heading into this matchup.
