The ducks will need to pressure Penix and hit him a bunch even if it means going down early. I’m thinking Ducks are down at halftime and I’m just hoping they squeak out a close one that comes down to the end. I don’t see Oregon covering the spread if they win.
I mean you probably don't have his covering the spread most games, no?
People on here were criticizing me when I said the Utah game wasn’t going to be close, I generally tend to be more pessimistic but I don’t just be pessimistic to be pessimistic. I’ve seen teams like Washington before and I just think come tomorrow their offense will be clicking again due to the opponent and stage.
Utah was terrible. Anyone who didn’t see the beat down coming was just being a negaduck
As for this game. Unless the UW D gets lucky again, we will score 45-50 on them and hold them to around 24.
I'm not sure him holding a pair of cleats is any sort of indication he will play. If the Duck Territory guys are accurate, it sounds like Florence is not only unlikely to play in this game, but is unlikely to play the rest of the season. He has been getting around on crutches...would be really strange if he went from that to playing in a week. I guess we will have to wait and see, but simply taking a picture holding a pair of cleats doesn't prove anything either way.

I've got to admit, I was initially excited after seeing the insta story, but then I thought about which thing is a better indicator of his status for Friday: a video of him holding a shoe, or the fact he was on crutches six days ago?
Hopefully Manning grows before our eyes and we spare ourselves additional injuries. Definitely sucks to lose such a valuable piece from an all-time great Oregon defense -- and I may still have some Ifo PTSD -- but we've got this.

I like Florence, but he’s NOWHERE near as valuable as Ifo was to the 2014 defense.

This game has so much riding on it. Last Pac-12 game, Heisman implications, Playoff implications, Rivalry game, Revenge game, Pac-12 Champ game, Could end 18 game winning streak, Top 5 matchup, etc...
Probably the biggest Pac-12 game ever for us (and ironically the last).

It's going to be poetic that Oregon wins its First National Championship in the final year of the Pac 12.
I just recounted the UW win streak and I do think it stands at 19.
Trying not to speak my fears/worries but trying to instead be objective, if the Ducks play as they have been for the second half of the regular season, I think they're 14 points better than UW, and that includes the idea that UW will up their play for this game. I'm just not sure I buy the idea that a team playing mediocre to ok for a significant stretch like UW has can just flip a switch and play lights-out -- which I think UW would basically have to do to win at this neutral site.
