Oregon was able to jump up two spots this week this #6 in the AP Poll.

It feels like everyone is taking their turn at looking bad each week. Ha!

I will say, it feels like the top 5 teams are in a tier of their own.

I think this Oregon team is ready to beat Ohio State. Our close wins are looking better and the past two games we've dominated. I think we're going to flatten MSU and go into Ohio State week ready to kick some ass.

I actually worry about Michigan State a little bit, not because they're good, but because I don't have confidence yet that we can contain a run game that includes a running QB. OSU gave glimpses of that issue.

I’ll be honest, I’m feeling the opposites. Dominating over OSU and UCLA doesn’t mean a whole lot to me. In fact if our offense plays like they did against UCLA, I have a hard time seeing us beat the Buckeyes. Our offense will need to have one of their best games of the year to beat Ohio State.

We didn't necessarily play badly again UCLA. It was two things that got to me.

#1. The pick 6. That went from beating them 41-6 to 34-13. Big difference and I felt it hard, as did many others, I'm sure.

#2. The former Oregon players acting like they were trying to intentionally hurt our current guys. That was outrageous and Dillon Gabriel let one of them know. There also should have been a targeting call on UCLA following their kickoff to Oregon, but that was reviewed and non-called.

We just don't seem quite as dominant so far compared to last year. That said, there's still time to improve.

Sure but we play Ohio State in two weeks. I just don’t think we’ve reached our full potential. So hopefully we do for that game, cuz beating the Buckeyes would be sweet.

And then 2 of them lost

To unranked teams, no less
