Take it with a grain of salt, especially when it comes to the WSU defense. The WSU defensive front is significantly better the injury riddled BYU front the Ducks' offensive line was going against last game. The noise factor the offensive line will have to deal with this week will exacerbate it even more.
I have no clue what’s gonna happen…but our OL also did pretty good blocking against Georgia.

Against Georgia we averaged 2.6 yards before contact, the highest of any team since 2018, and didn’t allow even a QB pressure. Wazzu is very quick but small up front.

Georgia plays a conservative gap protection "your guy cant move my guy", WSU line moves, stunts and penetrates they'll get more negative plays but give up more gapping holes up front. Mario's teams often times had more trouble with the the quick D-Lines than the ones who wanted to play big-boy push and shove.
This will be a different test for this years O-Line than we've seen so far. Hope they do better than Wisconsin did against them.
Weird Oregon fans reaction to any road game. Oh we are playing at WSU? We struggle there. Oh we are playing either Arizona school? We struggle there. Oh at Cal? We struggle. Yet our record since 2000 says other wise. He’s winning on the road is hard, and most teams don’t dominate on the road.

Agreed. Though we did run for 303 against them last year.

We something like 2-10 vs the spread the last twelve cougar games.
They always bat above average against us.
I am looking at tickets for Saturdays game. Who has been at a game in Martin Stadium? Looking at tickets in section 6 row a behind ducks. How bad are the fans there? Can I enjoy myself in that area?

By your question it sounds like you're one who doesn't relish getting into it with opposing fans. If that's the case the best way if you go is to go incognito. No Ducks gear or standing and cheering Ducks success until you get a feel for your surroundings. If you feel you're among a good group go ahead and vocally support the Ducks but be aware that even if they start friendly, as the booze flows and if the game goes Oregon's way that can change drastically.
Section 6 is 50 yard line and far from the visiting fan sections so you will be in enemy territory so to speak.

Been to Pullman twice, their fans can get quite rowdy, see my previous post? Definitely a rough place for opposing fans however I’ve seen much worst fan bases like LSU and Oregon St.

Finally, someone that agrees the Beaver Nation is really annoying and toxic!
I think Oregon will pull away in 4th quarter. Win by 10. As far as opposing fans IMO Tennessee, Virginia fans were great. For a away games the fans treated us very nice. Worst fans…UW, Auburn
