    This is going to be a fun week. Most Oregon fans cant even see how much Cal was in control of their game. Take away the miscues that led to turnovers and Cal wins this one Rather easily.

    I will admit I missed the 1st half...but that's not what I saw.

    HUGE running lanes for Laird though.

    The fact that Oregon is coming off a bye, UW playing consecutive road games with an inferior quarterback and average receivers, and UW having to scheme for a different Oregon offense makes me think this game will at least be competitive.

    UW's receivers as a unit have looked amazing. Inferior quarterback but far superior runningbacks. Far superior defense, tight ends as well.

    Playing a shit team on the road won't mean anything unless the offensive line loses some bodies in the process.

    Home advantage meant a lot *last year*. We'll see if it means anything this year. It didn't in 2016 for both you, the cougs, and us (playing SC).
    Amazing is a bit of a stretch for the receivers IMO, but they've been at least a B+ which is far better than some feared coming into the season.
    Bailing out your quarterback with acrobatic catches for TD's or 3dDC's == amazing imo

    They've dropped a couple TD's as well, not to mention a stupid OPI.

    Again, they've been good. An amazing WR unit is one that in the discussion for best in the nation IMO and they ain't that.

    Fine. Very, very good. Can't think of a Pac 12 team with better, only a few individual receivers (Whiteside, Harry, Vaughns).

    average receivers? The receivers have been great. Jake Browning isn't as good as herbert but washington is superior to oregon at every other position group.

    Herbert has not beaten a single good team in his career. Wait a minute....neither has Browning.

    At least Browning can beat Furd at home
