    Biggest thing w/ Oregon is that they actually have to play people this year before they play us. We know that they tend to get in trouble later in the year as their QB starts to get beat up. This year before they play us they have to play Michigan St (super physical defense), Arizona (who they almost always struggle with), and UCLA (week before they play us).

    I'm not worried about AZ. We will murder them at Autzen for the black eye they gave us in 2013. I'm very worried about Michigan State. I'm even more worried about Helfrich and Frost's sloppy ass offense. You guys don't seem worried enough about Stanford. Though they will lose a lot of their monsters they will still be a beast to contend with. If Mariota gets his annual injury and starts playing like a pussy we'll lose somewhere along the way. Eventually we'll have to drop a game to WA. I hope it's not this year.
    I doubt it's this year with mariotta. Next year is probably a better bet

    I respect Stanford plenty - in my mind we don't have a single easy home game next year. That being said, I also expect that we'll win our home games.

    For as good as Stanford was this year, they still lost 2 road games in the conference. I don't expect the 2014 version of Stanford to be better than the 2013 version.

    Hogan is a good QB but Shaw doesn't often turn his QBs loose - not even Andrew Luck. We've shown a general ability to contain their running game.

    We lost the game this year due to special teams, penalties, and lack of red zone execution. I expect that we'll be better in this regard with the coaching change in general.

    This will be the first opportunity for a signature win for the program under Petersen, I expect that he'll seize the opportunity.

    I think we'll win the game going away in the 4th quarter ... say 35-17.

    Well, there are the non conference games.

    And its 34-17.

    Have you not heard of the Lou Holtz School of Respecting Your Opponents?

    And yes, I was referencing our conference games.

    T's and P's to me for fucking up the rather easily ... I need to be more respectful of this fucking dreckfest.
