The Oregon Ducks will open Pac-12 Play in daylight against Colorado on Saturday, September 24th at Autzen Stadium.

More from Autzen Zoo

The Oregon Football team will take on the current Pac-12 and National Leader in Total Defense at 2:30pm Pacific Time next Saturday. Colorado will have a tough task this week hitting the road for the Big Ten, more on that in a moment.

Through two games this season it has been very up and down for the Pac-12. In shuffling tv times, this was the best landing spot for Week 3. The highlight game of the week is Stanford at UCLA. Washington also travels to Arizona.

The Cardinal and Huskies will have a lot to say about the Pac-12 Conversation in the coming month. Both will come to Autzen Stadium before the end of the season. An upset for either team in the first week of Conference play could open the door for a team like Oregon to make a move. Momentum for Oregon is building at the right time in 2016 with the one game a time approach.

I expect that the game next month against Washington will be an evening/night game. It may even be the Pac-12 Game of the Year depending on what happens between now and then.

The Buffs have a tall task this week against 4th ranked MIchigan in the Big House. It may be too big a Defensive test, which is why Oregon has a mid-day start over a Primetime kickoff next week(at least that’s my thought on it.)

Colorado comes to Autzen Stadium next week for a 2:30pm Pacific Time kickoff. The game will be broadcast on the Pac-12 Network.
