Oregon's Game-by-Game Score Predictions

The upcoming season is shaping up to be one of the most exciting in Oregon football history. With what many people consider the deepest and most talented roster the Ducks have ever assembled, expectations are sky-high. Oregon is poised to make a significant impact as they transition into their new conference, the B1G 10. Fans are eager to see how the team will fare against this new level of competition. This article will dive into detailed game-by-game score predictions, offering insights into how Oregon's season might unfold. The Ducks are not just looking to compete; they're aiming to make a statement and establish themselves as a powerhouse in their new conference home.

Week 1 vs Idaho

My Thoughts: Obviously, this game shouldn't be close. Oregon is by far the more talented team and should win by at least 35 points. Oregon is 3-0 against Idaho in their history, and it should improve to 4-0.

Score Prediction: Oregon 63, Idaho 7

Week 2 vs Boise State

My Thoughts: This is another game that should be a cakewalk for Oregon. Boise State is led by their star RB Andy Jeanty, but Oregon should be able to slow him down pretty easily. Boise is a more talented team than Idaho, but they are still nowhere near as talented as Oregon. Boise State's starting QB will probably be USC transfer and former 5-star Malachi Nelson. It will be interesting to see how he does in his new home. I expect a big win for Oregon.

Score Prediction: Oregon 52, Boise State 13

Week 3 @ Oregon State

My Thoughts: Oregon State lost many players to the portal, including their star RB Damien Martinez. They probably have one of the bottom 3-5 rosters among all Power-5 teams. The Beavers' starting QB will likely be Missouri transfer Gabarri Johnson. Oregon will be able to stop him easily. This will be Oregon's first road game of the season, but I don't think that will phase the Ducks at all. This will be a beatdown.

Score Prediction: Oregon 59, Oregon State 7

Week 5 @ UCLA

My Thoughts: This will be Oregon's biggest test up to this point. I think UCLA is on the rise after hiring Deshaun Foster, but they are not close to being there yet. Oregon should be able to walk into the Rose Bowl and win comfortably. UCLA's starting QB will likely be Ethan Garbers. He isn't anything special; Oregon should be able to bottle him up.

Score Prediction: Oregon 49, UCLA 20

Week 6 vs Michigan State

My Thoughts: Michigan State is rebuilding. They have some nice pieces, such as Oregon State transfer QB Aidan Chiles, but they still have many holes to fill. Oregon shouldn't have too much trouble stopping the Spartans. I think Oregon will keep rolling and win big in this one.

Score Prediction: Oregon 45, Michigan State 14

Week 7 vs Ohio State

My Thoughts: This could be the game of the year. Oregon and Ohio State are both projected to be preseason top 4 teams. Ohio State is loaded everywhere, with their only question mark being the quarterback. As for Oregon, they are also pretty dang stacked. Ohio State probably has the better overall defense, but Oregon likely has the better offense. To keep myself humble, I will predict Ohio State to win a close one. That said, I think Oregon has a very good chance of winning this one.

Score Prediction: Oregon 27, Ohio State 30

Week 8 @ Purdue

My Thoughts: This is another game Oregon should win easily. If I'm being honest, I can't name a single player on Purdue. I expect Oregon to go into Purdue's stadium and dismantle them.

Score Prediction: Oregon 48, Purdue 14

Week 9 vs Illinois

My Thoughts: Illinois is led by QB Luke Altmyer. He had a decent season last year, but Illinois is simply not good enough to make this one interesting. I expect Oregon to win this one handily.

Score Prediction: Oregon 44, Illinois 10

Week 4: Bye

Week 10 @ Michigan

My Thoughts: Many people think this will be a close game; however, I do not. I don't think Oregon dominates, but I believe they will win by multiple scores. Michigan lost their head coach, defensive coordinator, and 13 drafted players. I think Oregon will walk into the Big House and leave Michigan fans stunned. Michigan's defense should still be one of the best, but I think their offense will be sub-par. Oregon is too talented, and Michigan lost too much. I think Oregon wins comfortably.

Score Prediction: Oregon 34, Michigan 17

Week 11 vs Maryland

My Thoughts: Maryland lost Taulia Tagovailoa, so they will have a new QB at the helm. I think Oregon is simply the better team here. I expect Oregon to win this one easily.

Score Prediction: Oregon 48, Maryland 17

Week 12 @ Wisconsin

My Thoughts: This is probably Oregon's trap game. They go into Wisconsin and likely have to play in freezing or potentially snowy conditions. Wisconsin will have a new QB at the helm in Miami transfer Tyler Van Dyke. He struggled at Miami, so I'm not too worried about him. If Oregon limits their mistakes, they should walk away with a comfortable win.

Score Prediction: Oregon 38, Wisconsin 21

Week 13: Bye

Week 14 vs Washington

My Thoughts: Dan Lanning is 0-3 against Washington. He wants and needs this win. Washington's roster is completely different from last year. They lost their head coach, offensive coordinator, and defensive coordinator. On top of that, they had 10 players drafted to the NFL and even more transferred away. Oregon should be able to come into this game and win pretty comfortably.

Score Prediction: Oregon 45, Washington 17

Final Record: 11-1
