Posted September 1, 20231 yr Administrator It is that time of year again...isn't it great! Hello My OBD FishDuck Forum Friends! What is your prediction versus Portland State? Take your shot and let's have fun with it... Lets get these predictions started, and remember I look for the differential between your predicted points with both teams from the actual points. I will use the tiebreaker information when needed, so provide all the data below! Entries without ALL the information are invalid, and predictions on other threads don't count. Please follow directions, as I need all that is below for tiebreakers: --the winner --the score --the amount of turnovers Oregon creates --the number of sacks Oregon records on the opposing team --the number of passing yards by the Ducks. My prediction is: Oregon, 65-13, 3, 4, 278 Mr. FishDuck
September 1, 20231 yr Oregon 56-20, 2, 4, 250 (Score & passing ydg lower due to playing time being given to 3 different QB's) My preference would be to see Nix until Oregon safely ahead then Thompson the entire rest of the way. We need to see what Thompson can or cannot do. It's his 3rd year on campus.
September 1, 20231 yr Oregon 56 - PSU 17 Ducks get 2 takeaways Ducks sack PSU 2 times 314 yard through the air for the Ducks
September 1, 20231 yr Ducks 63-9 2 takeaways 5 sacks 445 passing yards The start of football is our Christmas Eve! I won’t be able to sleep tonight!
September 1, 20231 yr Moderator Oregon 59-10 2 TOs 4 Sacks 265 passing yds These modest numbers are predicated on lots of backups seeing 2nd half action and DL/Stein not opening the offensive playbook up too much. But also showcasing the new and improved defense, particularly edge play and secondary.
September 1, 20231 yr Ducks 66-6 2 2 312 Vik's QB is pretty elusive from what I understand. Don't see a ton of sacs. Could see some throw aways though. 6 or 7 maybe. Possibly a couple grounding penalties
September 1, 20231 yr Moderator Oregon 49-14 3 TOs 5 Sacks 305 yards passing I kept it under 50 because it's Will Stein's first game and I think it'll take a little while for the players and new OC's play calling to mesh properly.

September 1, 20231 yr Ducks 55-13 Ducks create 2 turnovers Ducks get 5 sacks Ducks pass for 373 yards. Go Ducks!!!
September 2, 20231 yr Moderator Oregon football favored by more than 6 scores against Portland State WWW.OREGONLIVE.COM The No. 15 Ducks opened as 48.5-point favorites against Portland State
September 2, 20231 yr Moderator Ducks 45-13 2 3 263 I think Oregon establishes the run game and the running clock will not make for an offensive onslaught. I also thing that they get 14 points off of the turnovers with a short field. Edited September 2, 20231 yr by DrJacksPlaidPants
