Oregon Lines Up for BIG Introduction

[The Kamikaze Kid]

I think this game really introduced OBD's new BIG conference rivals to their much talk about O and D lines. While last week was the official first Duck BIG game, this week was our introduction to the old school BIG. Both lines absolutely man handled their opposition easily all night long. The MSU message boards are blown away by how dominant the Ducks were in the trenches. Nobody takes UCLA seriously as a big school but MSU while going through a down turn, is still supposed to be respectable in the trenches yet got destroyed like an FCS team.

 

I think BIG fans were expecting the Ducks to be introduced to the BIG like SUC was. All flash but no substance up front. Two horrible first half goal line turn overs kept the score from being 35-0 but the stats accumulated up to that point reflected that level of beat down. That sound you heard last night as the game ended was the collective gulp of millions of football fans about two thousand miles away.

 

Be afraid BIG fans. Be very afraid.

Spot on, Kamikaze. B1G fans think Oregon is still the Blur, all about the uniforms. The Red Zone mishaps kept the game from being a blowout, but all the B1G fans watching got a look at what Oregon is in 2024. Oregon has B1G sized players in the trenches and players that will HIT in the secondary. 

 

Michigan State is definitely one of the Old Money residents of the B1G, and they were handled. It was rough for them to have a two game stretch of Ohio State, then Oregon, but at least they were consistent.

Fantastic point, as I am sure that a ton of tOSU fans were impressed with our first team defense, and our offensive line blocking.

 

We'll be OK in the...
