Not me. While shameful, I fully admit to not being noble. That was a terrible betrayal, and with those who are like the people you read about in this article?

USC....where great running backs go to Dye.

Again...the predictions for the score and tiebreakers will be in a thread on Friday. But we can have fun in discussion...

I agree completely. I have already stated in this forum that my concern is pass protection at right tackle; as Salu is BIG, but not fast and got burned badly in the Spring Game. Smart will exploit this, and I am hoping that a 5-Star freshman with great feet (Josh Connerly) can help out on obvious passing downs. On the blindside is a senior (TJ Bass) who has great feet and done well blocking safeties in open space last year. He had injuries to start fall camp, but appears to be back. If he is out...we are screwed, and as it is...we are highly challenged by your extraordinary edge rushers. I am doing defensive analysis articles starting this Thursday, and in my study have been very impressed with how Smart/Lanning really messed up offensive lines. While I know we have seniors starting on the OL, you will get your licks in.

Well, isn't this lovely!

Amen Duck-Brother, and while we don't want to be patient...we need to be. But darn! This front seven on defense is so experienced and we won't have this kind of scenario for a few years...

Fantastic Junkyard...awesome stuff. If you were our OC....who in the secondary would you attack? And...what is the experience/playing time of the 'Dawg starting linebackers? The Mac, the Money and the Jack?

Hello my FishDuck Friends, Just a heads-up; on Friday I will post a thread for Game predictions like last year so you can start thinking about your prediction. I know we had a thread like that recently, but I do need tiebreakers, for as close and savvy this community is. Sorry...I do not have any prizes, but it is fun. Remember I look at the spread with then the closest score that has the spread correct. The data I will need from you on Friday will be: (entries without all the information are invalid, and predictions on other threads don't count as I am not going to hunt them all down) --the winner --the score, and the tiebreaker information needed from each of you is... --the amount of turnovers Oregon creates --the number of sacks Oregon records on the opposing team --the number of passing yards. Are YOU Ready?

Great article to address our fears Darren, but again--I believe the biggest surprise of the conference will be the Oregon defense. The front seven will be much better than the media, and Georgia fans, are thinking. It will not be easy for Oregon to score either, thus I see a close, low-scoring game.

If Frost thought recruiting to Oregon was hard, then Nebraska was not the place to go. This isn't the end of the world...but you can see it from here!

Technically, you can run RPOs off of nearly every play; when you successfully rip gains on the ground and they begin to adjust--you can hit the Bubble or a slant if the LBs commit too hard. But I think that the Bulldogs have THE best defensive coach in the nation, (Lanning has to prove it a few more years) and I personally would be reluctant to run them.

Just as a FYI...there is an enormous amount to this defense, and this Thursday is the beginning, the foundation to build upon. Through the season will we add to it, and I've gotta think that the similarities between Georgia and Oregon will be substantial enough for Bulldog fans to benefit from them.

I think there were some poor judgments in the construction of this video. For example, we want to get hyped about this season, with players we will see on the field this year. There are tons of highlight plays of returning players, and virtually all shown are no longer at Oregon. A Wheaton video in an empty stadium? The poor choices left me thinking about that, instead of the season. But they meant well...

Most RPOs were designed to put the weakside linebacker in a 4-2-5 defense in a conflicted situation. Kirby Smart, and now Lanning have a new way around that with the Mint defense and I will begin analysis articles of that new defense for Oregon this Thursday. I do not think we can run RPOs against Georgia... It may not be a good fit.

Dont'e Thornton

Meh. As I looked at that replay and others-there was horrible sloppy tackling that would not happen against a P5 opponent. Benson would have been a good big-back for us, but I think the new freshman Jordan is going to be a better big-back for us. I wish Trey well.

Great article pointing out the new trend in college football that we need to be aware of. It makes the job of the defense that much more difficult and important! Thanks to DZC.

I just received some hate-mail about this article...directed at me as a publisher and Oregon fan. It not from an Oregon fan, so Alan's epic article cut deep.

I am going to politely disagree; Helfrich called up to half the plays and Kelly would agree or suggest something else. Proof of this comes with how the offense did not change when Chip left, as the scoring continued and Oregon actually had more run/pass balance under Helfrich.
