Because it’s hard to believe even if it supposedly from the PAC 12 and this has been such a crazy year I will only take it as fact when there is a kickoff. 😁

Because USC might cancel due to COVID and we'll still end up playing Colorado. Or maybe all of the south division teams besides Arizona will die in a fucking fire while suffering from full-blown COVID and we'll play the fighting ex-Sumlins.

Could happen.

It would be fitting for the Pac 12 title game to end in a no contest.

How is the Duck's secondary? I've watched all the SC games and they like to fall way behind and then throw long bombs to win

#15 is a star on offense and so is #15 on defense

The rest of the team is pretty meh other than the wideouts. SC isn't smart enough to run the damn ball

Oregon will probably win based on muscle memory

I can assure you that Oregon’s top doctors know how to get on top of a spreader.

The ducks secondary isn’t very good, race. Not very good.

Their secondary is awful

USC is hard at work. They will not let Justin Herbert and Marcus Arroyo beat them by 32 again.

That was Sherbert’s best game at Orygun because SC’s strategy was to take him out with late hits and in return he decided to run up score.

Judging by Shuck’s cerebral behavior in the fourth quarters of the previous two games we don’t have to worry that he will do something stupid. It’s nice to not have to worry, and just expect it.

After half-assedly rewatching the Cal game I’ve now seen every game twice. I am no football expert, not as good at determining player performance like some people. Like PFF people being able to give scientific grades without assignments or responsibilities, or those who somehow manage to grade every play of all 22 film within 15 minutes of the game being over — they are the real experts.

Short version: Oregon’s secondary is not the problem. They’re decent and will be the best one USC has seen to date, which isn’t saying much.

The CBs #0 Lenoir and #2 Wright are pretty good. Deep safety #23 McKinley is decent. #15 Williams the freshman All-American who got kicked out of Illinois for reefer is decent. #7 Hill who took over for Jevon Holland and was supposed to be a star has been both terrible and good depending on the game.

If the team had a defensive strength this would be it.

The biggest problem has been the lack of pressure and the two four year starters at interior DL #3 Jordon Scott and #99 Austin Faoliu plus the rotation of guys who back them up. No pressure from them. Only #50 Popo and #97 Dorlus have been decent at beating pass pro. LB and nick blitz, other than Noah Sewell, have been shit.

Defensive backs and pass rush are the most symbiotic relationship on a defense. Can’t expect them to cover every time when the offense has a clean pocket for 6 seconds.

Thank god for Kayvon Thibodeaux. He’s amazingly good. Last year all he could do was rush the passer or accidentally run into a running back when rushing the passer. He’s gotten a lot stronger, and is playing incredibly well. Not as many sacks this year as he’s missed some, but he is eating as many double teams as everyone else is combined and is keeping this defense from being worse.

The combination of pressure and good enough coverage won this game. 50% own horn honking, 50% Yes, I know this was obvious.

Pressure was key. Slovis is a real QB. If he can sit back there with those WRs the ducks would have been in trouble.

And true to the reports SC can’t and couldn’t run the Ballz.

I’m on the record as being a shit evaluator of QBs, but Slovis is okay - most QBs would have been fucked even more by that pass rush. Slovis managed to slither away and come out with an incompletion or positive play a handful of times.

The two things that stood out to me:

* The bastardized air raid sucks. It’s inefficient and loses the good qualities of the Leach one.

* Maybe people were right about Oregon’s players being unmotivated and spoiled. Pass rush is a mix of talent, coaching, and effort. The cliche motor for DL to have. They have shown effort the last two games, but it was absent when they should have absolutely torn apart Beavlet.

The two Oregon losses were almost, ALMOST, all about not showing up and expecting to win, and then when things got hard lolz, having a QB who was the most afraid person on the field.

The Cal loss was like Washington's recent Cal losses. It's obvious which team is better and wins 8 out of 10, but you play when you play once and that's it. Cal was mostly on Shough and not protecting the ball. If he's just .01% less retarded in the Cal game they win.

Oregon State is another matter. He was shitty there, but Beav wants to beat the Ducks, so you're getting a good shot and they ran on Oregon ... a lot.

I can't tell whether those two losses are Shough, coaching, effort on d or what. But it was clear they showed up determined to get into Slovis' face from the opening snap and they did it all night long. I know SC can't run, but can they pass block? Or was Oregon overwhelming them by being better? IDK because I don't follow the P12 south at all.

Howdy, Stranger!
