Does Oregon beat Colorado in 2 weeks?

Buries? No. Oregon isn't good enough to do that. Oregon isn't Georgia.
But I do believe Oregon will win.
4-0 after beating Colorado State this Saturday. I don't see then losing 6 of their last 8.
Oregon is good enough to "bury..." Colorado, which I would guess means a beat down? No, they aren't. Colorado is talented.
Sure they are. Oregon at home could beat Colorado by 3 scores. Much much better teams than Colorado have gotten beat by 3 scores or more
I said above I believe Oregon will win. That said, based on what I have watched, Colorado is too talented at QB and other spots, and too well coached to get buried by Oregon.
I remember an unranked Purdue team beating OSU by like 25 points
Oregon is more talented than Colorado and at home. Colorado will have a tough time winning that game
Tcu was overrated. Lost too much. Good win for Colorado but these teams are much better. Beat 1 of those and then I'll be highly impressed.
I saw Oregon is -14.5 home against Colorado. I was surprised by this spread. Seems like Vegas is still a bit off with this new Colorado team.
Based on what I've seen and the schedule. My take FWIW
CSU - W
@ UO - L
USC - Probable L but I like the upset possibility
@ ASU - W
Stanford - W
@ UCLA - Probable L Possible Upset here too.
Oregon State - L
Arizona - W
@ Wash St - L
@ Utah - L

My thoughts exactly. CU will get killed on both lines of scrimmage by both teams. Nebraska has not been good for at least a decade and everybody knows TCU is susceptible on defense. USC should score on every possession as well as Oregon. I think Dion Jr will get an education on playing QB against the big dogs. Still CU has more wins than they did last year
Don't get me wrong, they've outperformed a lot of expectations so far. But I think their lack of talent and depth on the lines will get exposed by teams like Oregon and USC. But they could still win 7-9 games IMO.
Sanders and Hunter are great players. But their lines are mediocre. They have a bunch of transfers from G5 programs.
TCU was a good, close win on the road. Nebraska is a bad team without a QB which turned the ball over what? four times?
Sanders has done a great job turning around a single win 2022 team. But they aren't going to win the PAC. A winning record is a more realistic goal.

Good comments re: Colo and most probably right. But Oregon was lucky to get out of Lubbock with their skin and Colorado far better offensively than TTech (See TTech v Wyoming). And Buff D look pretty good although playing a turnover machine in the Neb. QB. Both should be fun games. Will see how C. Williams doing in the Heisman race after Sept. 30.
I think we need to see what CU's depth is going to look like 4-6 games into the season against top competition.
Oregon wasn't "lucky..." When you outscore Texas Tech 20-3 in the 4Q, like Oregon did, don't call them lucky. Oregon simply wore TT down.
