No. 2 Oregon opens its season at Autzen Stadium against Boise State, the program the Ducks nearly lost to two years ago in a 37 to 34 game decided by a walk off field goal. Oregon is coming off a 13 and 2 year and brings back quarterback Dante Moore, who turned down the NFL Draft to return. Boise State is starting its first season as a Pac-12 member after a 9 and 5 finish.

Prediction and Odds
The number is big for a reason. Oregon has the highest preseason ranking in school history, a returning starting quarterback in Moore and a defense that closed last season as one of the best in the country. But the trends lean the other way: Boise State is 4 and 0 against the spread in the last four meetings, the Broncos went 8 and 5 and 1 against the number last year, and Oregon covered only three of six games as a favorite of 24.5 or more. Expect the Ducks to control it without running away, and a low scoring game that stays under the total.
Our pick: Oregon 34, Boise State 13. Oregon wins; Boise State covers 24.5; under 52.5 hits.
Why This One Matters
Oregon is a national title contender and this is its only real test before Big Ten play. Boise State is the preseason favorite in the new Pac-12 and a Group of Five program with playoff ambitions, so keeping this within three scores would validate the move. The two teams have played three straight one score games.
