Photos: Oregon football — Ducks manhandle Colorado Buffaloes 57-16

Posted on 05 October 2013.

The Ducks head to Folsom Field with a streak of 16 straight wins in opponents’ stadium, the longest mark in the nation, and today they are 39-point favored. The Buffaloes also play at home for the first time in three weeks after a devastating flood hit the area and led to the postponement of the game on Sept. 14 against Fresno State. Luckily, the stadium suffered no damage. With two victories under their belt in their first three games, first-year head coach Mike MacIntyre has Colorado looking like a more competitive squad than they have been in recent years.
