We know how poorly we played against Utah twice. Yes coach MC was bad in game day preparation for those games against Utah, we also had a lot of team injuries last year. But Utah has a great team who we lost badly in both games. From what I read, last year Utah ran the third most offensive plays when facing nine defenders in the box, averaging 5.7 yards per rushing attempt. Also, they ran the most first-down plays against nine-man boxes, where they averaged over 6 yards per carry. Their tailback finished third nationally in rushing touchdowns from a group that finished second nationally in rushing efficiency. Cameron Rising is very good. Utah finished 10th nationally in passing success rate. I see why they are ranked so high nationally. I am glad we are not facing them until later in the season, giving our team time for growth and more seasoned. Georgia well, we know what they did last year. I can understand them under-estimating what Oregon can do. Last year, outside of how well we played at Ohio State, we failed to impress nationally through the rest of the season. I believe this year will be different. I have confidence in this coaching staff putting the best QB at this moment in the Georgia game that will help give us our biggest chance to be competitive. We have so many great talented players on both sides of the ball, which our great FishDuck writers have so intelligently pointed out to us in many articles. Our defense will be phenomenal this year. We have a talented seasoned front OL along with the talented OT Conerly. We have talented receivers, TEs and a running back room that will be surprisingly good. Oregon has a hard schedule this year and there will be growing pains in this game against Georgia. But, I believe there will be a big jump between the first game and the second game, moving forward. I love my Ducks!

if anyone wants to listen to the Canzano and Wilner's podcast Coach Boles mentioned, I posted it on the FishDuck Feed.

Matching Up: Oregon Offense vs Georgia Defense

A home and home would have been great! Each fan base gets a taste of both hospitality/tailgating, etc. fund activities before game time.
