The Colorado Buffaloes will be in for an acid test when they face the No. 10-ranked Oregon Ducks. Despite being a heavy underdog, Skip Bayless feels the Buffs will upset the Ducks on Saturday, September 23.

"Colorado is a 21-point underdog. I think that's a sign from above. They're gonna go in there and do exactly what they did to TCU," Bayless declared on The Undisputed.

The 71-year-old sports columnist backed up that claim. Bayless shared how he observed the Oregon vs. Texas Tech game and pointed out how the Ducks had a difficult time in that game.

With Shedeur Sanders at the helm, Bayless feels that the Buffaloes have the tools to overcome the odds against the fancied Ducks, who struggled against Texas Tech in their last assignment, USA Today reported.

"I watched carefully Oregon at Texas Tech, and Oregon had a very difficult time at Texas Tech. I have watched carefully these weapons that Shedeur has. Dylan Edwards is a true freshman, and he is a game-breaker. Receivers, that little Jimmy Horn can play, he can get free and separate. Weaver the receiver just gets open," Bayless explained.

The Buffs and the Ducks are off to a hot start, each racking 3-0 records thus far. However, one team will suffer its first defeat on Saturday.

The Ducks are heavy-betting favorites to prevail, per SI SportsBook.
