We know that Oregon SHOULD win, but I don’t trust this team yet. I’m hoping this will be the game that shows they’ve turned the corner

This one hurts. I've never picked against the Ducks but this team is still a mystifying enigma to me. I really, REALLY want to be wrong on this.

USC wins

I really hate when Oregon loses and someone wins this contest. If it were me I would Just sit it out.

My heart says...

Oregon 45-24

Defensive line plays angry, Lanning gets over himself and his mint and attacks. Somebody fast spies Maiava and helps kill the run...Jackson or Wyatt? DB's allowed to play and soft high cover 2 stuff goes away

3 takeaways

3 sacks despite his quickness

Us...338 passing yards and over 200 on the ground

Quack. Riley becomes second USuC coach to be fired on the tarmac, later this season

Usuk

Jeremiah Johnson is a game-time decision, so for this game, I'm going to Duck. 🤔

Best of luck to all who predicted the game.

GO DUCKS!

Oregon!!!

This may be the hardest prediction ever, who knows if our OL can suddenly be able to block and our RBs and QB can actually trust them and excute?

Oregon 31 USC 30

2 TOs

1 sack

390 yards for Dante is the only way we win.

Ducks 38 - 24

3 TOs

3 sacks

Oregon

2 Sacks

302 yards...

I'm glad to see a few people taking sc, so I don't have to just to win the contest as I did a couplde of years ago being the only one to take ewe dub.

So, onward and upward.

Ducks 48 - 35

2 TO's

2 Sacks

333 p yds

Switching my pick. Originally had USC, but switched to Oregon because I couldn’t get the taste of throw up out of my mouth.

Oregon

28-27

0 turnovers

0 sacks

284 yards passing.

There are so many issues with this team right now. The OL is an absolute mess with both starting tackles PFF grades under 30, which includes the PSU game. I didn’t see anything against PSU to indicate it was any better. PSU was in the backfield, but just wasn’t athletic enough to make plays. Penalties are still an issue. Both coordinators are new. On defense, LBs are frequently out of position and the DL can’t get pressure.

That’s a lot to clean up in one week. However, in Dan I trust.
