Now that we know that USC and UCLA can survive without playing Cal and Stanford every year we? should go forward with a balanced schedule for the North and South with no special exemption for the 4 California schools

Let me be clear: we? will go 0-6 until we don’t. This is not a “we? should’ve been picked higher!” post
But can someone explain to me the Oregon hype? Aren’t they replacing a first round QB and an entire OL? Isn’t that the shit that the football nerds usually care about when they look teams pre-season?

Yeah, high potential for them to underachieve for those reasons. The Ducks do look solid at all other positions though, plus they are perceived to have the best coaching staff in the conference, so that could explain the mediots ignoring some glaring flaws/question marks.
It makes a ton of sense to vote for a team that turned over their entire roster of 2-4 year starters. I'm hearing quarterback and left tackle are just plug and play for Meat though.
It also makes a ton of sense to vote for a team with a shit tier defense and the worst coaching staff in the conference.

4/5 of their secondary is gone now too. I liked their defense a lot. Not i don’t know about the defense as much and hate their offense. Nobody in the conference screams favorite though. And Oregon actually cares, meaning they try to win. So there is that.

Lenoir changed his mind and is now returning, so the Oregon secondary isn't in too bad of shape. Lenoir and Mykael Wright will be in the running for the top corner duo in the conference. Losing Holland and Breeze will drop the Ducks from having arguably the top group of safeties in the conference to just being average.
