Which team do you think Oregon (for its own good) needs to draw in the bowl game?

I haven't watched enough of the other CFB teams to offer a well-thought out choice, but I think it'd be great if we draw a big, ground and pound, physical team with a power running game and a stiff defense. As much as I'd love to see Oregon play a team like aTm, it would be even better if the team we draw is 'boring' (like Oklahoma maybe?) and not a team we're excited to play. For the good of the program going forward, we should want to draw a team that's excited to play us, is driven to win at all costs, and wants to punch us in the mouth with a run-first game plan. It will provide a stern test for Helfrich and his crew at the end of the season that the Beavers won't come close to providing. If he has indeed lost the team and fails to inspire them to play duck football like it's meant to be played; if the coaching staff continues its lack of innovation and fails to come up with a game plan to stop this kind of team and gets another beatdown on the national stage, maybe the taste will be sour enough in the mouths of Knight and the AD to make some bold changes quickly.

    LSU, but I don't think that is possible. It has to be a team with 2 or 3 losses. I think LSU would easily beat you guys and cause a lot of panic in Quookville.

    In terms of entertainment, I hope you guys play Baylor in the Holiday Bowl.

    I was thinking LSU too. But I know Oregon would be pumped up big time for that. Baylor would be a bad draw, they're too much like Oregon.

    I've got a question for you...

    Who the fuck cares?

    Maybe you should hire Saban. He'd be a good bookend to your b ball Izzo hire.

    I'm thinking Oregon's bowl game will play out like this game where they obviously won't want to be there.

    Baylor would skull-fuck us. Texas would be the best matchup between two soft teams with entitlement issues.

    You stink. Thousands of people care, even some who are not Ducks fans.

    Boise State is available to go duck hunting again anywhere. It would be Oregon's opportunity for some payback. And it's not as the though the ducks are flying high and proud these days.
