The No. 1 Oregon Ducks have a major opportunity on Saturday afternoon inside Autzen Stadium. With the No. 20 Illinois Fighting Illini coming to town, Dan Lanning and his team have a chance to establish themselves as the best team in the nation and assert some dominance.
The Ducks have done a good job of that so far this year, winning every game on their schedule and looking dominant in the past two weeks against both Ohio State and Purdue. Now the eyes of the world will be back on them in Eugene with another top-25 matchup on tap.
ESPN’s “College GameDay” was in Indiana for the matchup between the Hoosiers and the Washington Huskies, but they still spent some time on this game and previewed what will go down.
ESPN’s “College GameDay” crew made its picks for Saturday’s winner in the Autzen. Here’s how they selected:
Desmond Howard: Oregon
Pat McAfee: Oregon
Nick Saban: Oregon
Guest Picker Kyle Schwarber: Oregon
Lee Corso: Oregon
Kirk Herbstreit: Oregon
The game between Oregon and Indiana kicks off at 12:30 p.m. PT on CBS in Eugene, Oregon.
