College Football 2012 — Week 12 Preview
#14 STANFORD (8-2) AT #1 OREGON (10-0)
[Saturday, 8 p.m. on ABC]
The Ducks are riding a school-record 14-game winning streak and can clinch a spot in the Pac-12 title game with a win this weekend. Oregon’s high-powered offense leads the nation in scoring and has become a case of "pick your poison"—running back Kenjon Barner is fourth in the nation in rushing, but when he was knocked out of last week’s game, quarterback Marcus Mariota responded with 377 passing yards and a school-record six touchdowns. They’ll be tested, however, by a Stanford defense that leads the nation in rush defense and is giving up a conference-low 320.7 total yards per game. Stanford’s Kevin Hogan will be making his second career start for the Cardinal after throwing for 254 yards and three touchdowns in last week’s win over then-#13 Oregon State. Oregon has won nine of the last 10 over the Cardinal.

Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills — 8:20 P.M.
Ralph Wilson Stadium, Orchard Park, N.Y.
Miami (4-5) rookie quarterback Ryan Tannehill has just five touchdown passes on the year. The Bills' defense allows an NFC-high 31.7 points per game and an AFC-high 410 yards per contest. Averaging 143.1 yards per game on the ground, Buffalo (3-6) has the league's sixth-best running game. The Dolphins' run defense must improve on the 177 rushing yards it allowed to the Titans last week.
