Prediction: Oregon goes 5-0

Post by Duck4Ever »

Wash St would be the next opponent. I think beating them is realistic.

Man, I don't know if we beat WSU. I think we could but I think they will be favored for a reason.

WSU beat us 51-33 in the Paloose last year and 45-38 in Autzen the year before. The previous 8 years had been mostly blowouts and 8 straight wins for UO. I just want to be the Cowboys Saturday.

noger0 that was pretty piss poor.

2017: Worst Oregon team in 20 years
2016: In overtime , oregon had the lead in the 4th and Taylor Alie was the QB

Also this is a fan board. its 100% fine to look ahead past Wyoming.

Oregon beats Wyoming by 2+ TDs and comings in and beats Washington State...you heard it here...second.

To beat WSU it would be helpful to get Robinson, Oliver and Breeze back. We have 3 good corners, could use some more coverage skills at Safety.

It will be a game where Apelu will be an asset not a liability at MLB.

If the Ducks can keep PIs below 4 I think they will have a really good chance.

Also of note: If Oregon does go 5-0, Coach Taggart will be at a 50% career win loss percentage as a HC for the first time.

How do we know Breeze will help? I'm almost to the point I'm wondering if he'll ever see and meaningful minutes as a Duck.

I don't know, but if they had all three of them back, maybe Coach Heyward can find two that won't be invisible. I throw in Breeze because he at least hasn't proven to be lost so maybe he'll be a gamer and a positive surprise.

Throw in Williams, I have him in the upper half of this group. Kind of amazing that the entire anticipated 2 deep at the time WT moved Schooler is or has been out.

Wasn't he atop the depth chart before his injury?

We have Pickett and Gibson, and we have Stephens and Holland coming in. Maybe BB can beat them out, but I really like what I see from the FR, and really think next years class will be even better.

Hopefully. This team is too young and flawed to only lose 1 game, which is what it will take for a Pac-12 team, not named USC, to make the playoff. I think a New Year's Six bowl game would be a huge accomplishment for this team. I don't think they can beat UW or USC (which they would need to do in the Pac-12 championship) this year. Stanford is probably unlikely, as well.

I'd love to be proven wrong, but it's just unrealistic to expect that of them this year.

ya this defense isn't good enough for the playoffs, 5-0 is what we should be at with WSU be a very good test for this team.

The D two years ago wasn't as good as this d, but with a healthy Adams they probably make the playoffs.
