I was surprised, but all five picked Oregon to win, and both Nick Saban and Kirk Herbstreit expressed respect for the USC offense, but felt that the Oregon defense had enough of an edge to prevail.

Is that a great confidence boost, or the ultimate curse?

CONFIDENCE!

I believe we play our best game of the year so far. It's time for a statement game.

Sco Ducks!

Its the moment of truth- To this point this a defining game as far a being a pretender or a contender.

On a side note the GDC picked Harvard over Yale and its Yale 17 Harvard 0☠️

That was Josh Pate's prediction, Oregon playing it's best game of the year.

It's a bummer that both DAK and Bryant are out but its not like they are a last minute scratch. Benson, Lowe and JMac are solid, have made great catches in previous games and have been working together the past few weeks. Sadiq is essentially a super-size WR that can beat you deep or knock you out of your shoes. He is more than a load for any LB and can smoke most safeties. Saleapaga and JJohn can block and catch so 13 formation is a very viable option in passing situations with multiple threats.

Unanimous nods from the ESPN crew makes sense and Oregon should be ok.

Who did Mariota pick????

All will be ok... As long as we run the darn ball!

Looks like a solid choice at the end of the game. It was weird though. We were ahead most of the game, but the lead felt tenuous until about 5 minutes left in the game.
