    Quooks win a shootout 45-38. Minshew gets another dose of CTE.

    No idea who wins, but the Over has to be north of 80.

    Line opened as WSU -1 but has swung to Oregon -1.5. No o/u yet.

    Cougs can't stop the run and Minshew will shred up the Oregon secondary. Whoever limits their mistakes will win. Go Cuogs

    If the cuog can't stop the run or play defense well this game doesn't bode well for them. They're one dimensional and will be throwing it all day long, need Amadi to step up and have a big game defensively.

    Script says WSU and one of Utah/UCLA beats Oregon.

    If Oregon commits to 65-35 run/pass they win by 10 or more.

    Would that make Oregon 65% or 35% stupid?

    The line on this game is all over the place. Opened with WSU -1, went to Oregon -1.5, and now back to WSU -2.5. O/U is at 66.5.

    I like my @LeachNeedsMoreTim in this one.

    Cuogs got all the intangibles in this one, similar to how Oregon had them last week. However, I just know the one time we need to rely on the Cuogs to help us out they're gonna Cuog it. I'm taking the Quacks in this one and will hope for the Utes to take them down next month.

    I've picked Oregon to beat WSU each of the last three years, so Oregon is pretty much guaranteed to win this one now.

    What level of hell are we in where we have to rely on either fucking WSU and Utah to win an important game?

    The more I think about this gayme the more I lean Oregon. The fact that we?ve poached a couple of their coaches helps... also, our D has evolved to be more of a rush-QB-pressure defense. WSU struggles with larger lines and good pass rushers more than others due to their scheme.

    However, our secondary is, well, not so good.

    Also, we're not playing after dark on the Palouse. Thank god.

    Graham is your weakness in the secondary. The others have been making plays.

    The issue I've seen with Oregon is that Mitchell is a habit for Herbert. He needs to get the ball around. And your TEs are dropping passes, which isn't going to give Herbert confidence to go to them. Oregon is short on targets in the passing game.

    If Oregon can't run the ball effectively on my Kewgs for four quarters, they will lose, because Coug! is gonna score.

    I think the Oregon secondary is too young. I'm leaning towards the cougs by a touchdown, but that may change as the game draws near.

    Depending on the coogs to win a game that most everyone thinks they are going to win is s dicey proposition

    All the hot takes are true, bye week etc. but the ducks are all business and Leavitt is kicking ass to keep them focused and Lombardi Award Coach of the Year Marconi Cristobal just doesn't lose to WSU

    He just doesn't

    Ducks win rather easily, say 34-17?

    There's coog win streak to snap and a lot to play for including a PAC 12 championship and potential playoff spot. Motivation won't be an issue.

    This sounded sarcastic.

    You are right about one thing: depending on Coug! to do anything other than get really drunk is a shaky place to be.

    Whatever.

    Coog off a bye week, oregon off an emotional high and a physical game. They spent two weeks going all in to beat a banged up UW team. Cougs are going to disembowel them and roll around in their colons
    You're sounding more and more like a coog every day.

    Don’t confuse wanting every oregon player to have a career ending injury and every duck fan to die in a firey car cash as being a coog. HTH
    Replace Oregon with UW and that sentence oozes the cougery from all orifices.
