    I took no issue until someone said Oregon brings back the same team. Oregon has better playmakers at WR and the defense is overhauled. The inside linebackers are much better equipped to handle coverage responsibilities. The defensive line and pressure rate is worlds better and tackling is much improved - Oregon got the 2nd year bump (much like Oklahoma) from a defensive-minded coach. The comment shows a lack of research for sure.

    Comparing the schedules to date is like measuring the tallest midget. Tech is ranked higher than Arizona on FEI, SP+, FPI, etc. and they're not really close (30ish spots). The spread between Tech and Zona would be 7 points based on advanced metrics. The Arizona/USC game is more of an indication of USC than Arizona. The reality is either team should be 5-0 to date.

    Lastly, I think the difference in pressure rate by Oregon and the disparity of pressure Oregon can cause vs the schedule UW has faced is a major talking point. I think Oregon can and, probably will, pressure at much better rate than last year.


    Better playmakers on at WR… you couldn’t even make it two sentences without lying you lying fuck.
    I am comparing Oregon to itself last year.

    It's not the same team. Tez Johnson is a significant update at the slot, Franklin is a better version of himself, Bryant is more reliable than Thornton (drops)/Cota (always injured), and the depth is better.
