Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
The only way I see UW winning this game is sort of like how Stanford beat Oregon a few years ago.
Try and play ball control with solid defense, and hope you get lucky (like Stanford did with that ertz TD and a couple missed FG's by Oregon). They won that game 17-14 in OT I believe.
I do think the husky defense will keep it close for most of the game, but in the end it is really tough to pick against Mariotta
Oregon 30-21

Run the football consistently, Oregon will make your B- backs look more like B+ backs. This will be due to poor tackling and poor gap responsibility, in large part because PellumFS still allows Malone to play over Joe Walker.
Defensively UW just needs to do what they've been doing physically. However, Fisher coming back does greatly shore up the Oregon offensive line. The biggest problem facing UW defensively is their lack of discipline. Their aggressive nature sometimes creates blown assignments and against Oregon, it will cost you every time.
UW keeps it close, but Oregon generates enough big plays to win.

I think it will be more of the same, until I see otherwise. Yeah Oregon is struggling, but I don't think it will matter. They still have the horses to blow us away.
That said, I hope our guys have their best game of the year so far and figure out a way to win it.
I still don't think our O can play against an average to above Pas 1C D.
Our D is baller, but its still Oregon.
