Marcus Harper strikes again.

He has to easily be the most penalized player on the team

Somehow our DBs have to play better. It is ridiculous. This is the tenth game and they still can't cover.

And I’m thinking this is despite Gonzo taking away a whole side of the field.

4 man rush on 3rd and 4 will never produce a stop. No blitzes so far... what is the deal?

I said it before and got attacked but will say it again. This defense is not reliable enough to consider Oregon a legit top 5 team.

It seems like no matter who the DC is, and we've had a bunch, Oregon's DBs just will never attack the ball. Limit YAC but getting catches with ease.

Well technically we’re not a top 5 team.

2019 was the one exception to this IMO, but even in 2007 with the D Boyz the passing defense was atrocious. Can you explain this? Is it the players they recruit? Coaching? I don’t understand.

There is an argument to be made. Between the 20s they're terrible, especially against the pass, but the redzone defense is extremely stout

Its early, I wouldn't sweat it. They pass the ball 937 times a game, we are going to give up some yards. They will start losing steam soon. The fact is, they are just not as good as us.

That's a gift to kick the field goal. You need to score touchdowns against us.

Could we please extend the "stout" part out to the 40s.

Here’s to hoping.

Lol true, but this is why I never really looked forward to post season, I never thought this team would win out with the defense playing the way it was. If offense gets nervous or timid then this defense will not win them the game. Even in fun wins like the UCLA win the defense did nothing to contribute to the 15 point win. The offense has been Oregon’s best defense this year. People were all confident cause Penix sucks against the zone, but have you seen Oregon‘s zone coverage? Our LB’s and secondary think they have to stand like statues in zone coverage.

They've shown no ability to stop our run game.
