Oregon moves ahead of undefeated FSU to the #2 spot

oregonblitzkrieg

Not so sure this is a good thing. Even a quook like myself would put FSU at number 2 at this point over Oregon. They have beaten Clemson, Oklahoma State, Louisville and Notre Dame (even though all of those teams are now highly suspect). Nearly all of their wins have looked unimpressive but the fact remains they haven't lost. Oregon beat some tough opponents but I worry about this #2 ranking going to the player's heads. Would prefer that they play from behind, with a nagging sense that they've got something to prove (they do) and that they'll have to earn their way to the top, and that they can't just sit back and expect to stay there just because they have O's on their helmets.

Sven could star at quarterback the next two games and oregon wins going away. The ducks are fine until asu which if they need incentive for that game, can helfrich

I'm intrigued by how nervous the Oregon posters are. You guys are going to skate to the playoffs.

Marshall has a better resume than Oregon

You don't know how much damage this guy did to their fanbase:

Amazing. Par for the course for the FS committee I guess.

Christ...

It's two scrimmages until the winner of the Territorial Cup.

Hi there. Oregon nearly lost to Oregon State a year ago. Take nothing for granted.

I just want Oregon to lose so I can be right about Slingblade.

That Oregon State team was average, and the Ducks were in a tailspin (no pun intended).

This year, Oregon State at this moment is arguably the worst team in the Pac12, and Oregon is rolling.

The Beavers were still better last year. I will say Oregon imploding down the stretch was a bigger factor, which obviously isn't the case right now.

Not only is FSU undefeated, they are the defending national champs. I'm still surprised they aren't #1 since it looks like Mississippi State's SOS is barely higher (and FSU still has the crystal ball).

I think Miss State and FSU should be flipped. Miss State's OOC is a joke. Meanwhile, FSU plays Notre Dame, Florida, and Okie State this year OOC.

Good news is, I think this Saturday will take care of that debate
