How far do you think we'll get into the season?

Post by DuckzRule »

A. Make the playoffs and lose in the semifinals.
B. Make the playoffs, win the semifinal and lose the national championship.
C. Make the playoffs and win it all.
D. Miss the playoffs and get something worse than that.

I'll honestly be going for either A or B, but I'm praying C happens, a healthy team could give serious competition.

D, I just simply don’t trust the OLine enough.

E. Win the pac north, lose the CCG, win a bowl game.

The key with this team is to not play down to their competition. Nobody wants to face this Oregon team in the playoffs but Oregon needs to be able to kick the ankle biters off them throughout the season.

I think we have a decent shot of winning the pac12 and a lesser bowl game.

The lack of rotation on the OL vs Ohio St has me optimistic that we won’t be doing this stupid hockey rotation on the OL. Get the best 5 and stick with them. If that happens, I think we make the playoffs. But we are a QB away from being a legit threat to win it all. And please get James off the field.

I think I'm with nogero, on the basis that I think we split with UCLA on the season.

One of these games the odds are going to catch up with Browns misfires and result in 3 or more interceptions. I also cant imagine what would happen when a team with a better running and throwing QB, better running back and better O-line (UCLA) than UA uses the same game plan.

I see one upset in conference at minimum.

Next week really scares me. On the road against an accurate QB who hasn't really made mistakes this year.
We better figure out how to get some pressure on him and get in front of some receivers.

Well by all accounts KT should be good to
Go and let's hope Swinson is back.

I just hope I'm alive when Oregon FINALLY wins a national championship, beating Ohio State is just the beginning tho.

This caught my eye -- Oregon opened as an 8-pt favorite over Stanford this morning, according to VegasInsider.

That's some serious disrespect for a third-ranked team.

I'm really not sure what to think of this Oregon team. Are we really good enough to compete with teams like Ohio State on a regular basis, and we struggle with the Arizonas because we get everyone's best shots? Or are we good enough to compete with Ohio State on our best day, but usually we're just good enough to compete for Pac-12 titles?

The sports betting industry seems to be putting its money on the latter. I think we'll finally learn the truth on Saturday. Yes, we've had lots of injuries, but so much of what we've seen over the past two weeks is concerning.

Let’s just take a quick look around college football.

Iowa 24-14 over a 1 win Colorado st team. And CSU held a 14-7 lead in the 3rd.
Penn St 38-17 over Villanova.
Auburn was gifted a win over Georgia St by the refs late in the game.

It’s a crazy year, and we can play with anyone.

BTW MC seems to always have this team ready for Stanford. I think we roll big.

If we didn’t learn the truth after the tOSU game the Stanford game isn’t going to tell us much. This is just how these games under Cristobal, the difference is this year we’re closing them out strong.

Tough to say. We need to improve, especially on defense.

Can't have metrics in the 90's+ across the board except for turnovers.

Offensively, we're middle of the pack.

I think we win this weekend, but lose to UCLA pretty soundly and probably one other game at some point.

I hope instead, we improve our consistency.
