The season's prediction contests begins! Guesses on other threads don't count--only those here, and only those completely filled out as before.

Let's have fun with it as we have so many years in the past...

Let me know:

--Which team wins:

--Score:

Tiebreakers: (Must include)

--How many turnovers by the opponent created by Oregon?

--How many sacks on the opponent by Oregon?

My prediction of Oregon vs. Boise State:

Oregon

48-20

292

I just asked ChatGPT how many points was Oregon favored by in 2024? The answer was 18.5. I expect Boise State to bring their game.

DUCKS WIN!

Late score by Boise State in the 4th quarter with our starters pulled makes it look closer than it really is.

Presuming the sunny weather prediction holds (since it Never Rains…):

Ducks 42 - 10

1 TO

2 sacks

274 PYG

Ducks Win

56-12

5 Sacks

356 yards passing

It's so bad that Byron Hout punches himself!

Oregon

38-17

2 TO

4 sacks

285 yds passing

That 24.5 pt spread seems a bit high to me. If Oregon gets up by 3TDs there will be lots of 2's and 3's in the game and things may stall some. Boise St will rely on the ground game for as long as they can as their strength and to slow things down. They will be forced to throw once the Ducks get up by a few scores creating sacks and a turnover or two.

Also, I’ve got to say to all my Duck friends that I sincerely believe that this will be a special season for you guys. I’m very excited about y’all’s team! The Ducks have arguably the most talented team in the nation.

I think the Ducks defense will shine this season and will reflect what I know about Dan Lanning. With the talent and brains behind this defensive unit I expect and hope for domination!

I can say similar things about the offense. It will be one of the best offenses in the Nation, wouldn’t surprise me if it’s the most explosive offense this season.

I just needed to tell you folks how I’m feeling about the Ducks this season and didn’t know where else to say it. I’m expecting big things and I’ll be cheering and pulling for the Ducks!

This season just feels a little different, feels like it’s time.

GO DUCKS!!!!!!!!!

Before predicting, I waited to see if Kellon Moore and Ashton Jeanty were back for a 5th season and if Chris Petterson was still doing TV and not on the Boise State sideline.

34-17 - One-score game heading into the 4th quarter.

1 TO caused

1 sack (7 hurries)

250 passing yards

Boise State is an Oregon nemesis, a top G6 program, and the Broncos come into this nationally televised game geeked beyond belief.

New coordinators, new O-Line, and a new kicker will be the reason for only 28 points. Boise is always a tough opponent for the Ducks, so that factors into my prediction.

Is this the year OBD shakes off those pesky Broncos. I think so.

A bit of an unreasonable PT spread but I stand by this being the year to "Break the Broncos!"

OBD Wins AND Covers!

45 - 20.

3 T.O.

3 SKS.

303 PASS YDS (+250 rsh)

Close for a half but our "new" coordinators show their coaching acumen through halftime adjustments.

1-0. GO DUCKS!

Good Opening Oregon Football Day, Everybody!

I think OBD are due to just open a big 'ol can of whoop butt on the Shetland's... kind of like what we did to Colorado a couple years ago. BSU... Nemesis no more.

It's time to go big, or go home.
