    This might be Oregon's worst team in the Altman era. I think Oregon still gets love from Vegas due to recency. This game realistically should be a pick'em.

    Next year however, adding Louis King and Bol Bol to a nearly all returning roster will make Oregon a monster.

    -7.5 now

    That's crazy, which makes me wonder if Oregon is indeed the good bet. Usually when lines are too good to be true, they generally are. Maybe Vegas knows something that most of us don't.

    They know that UW, like most teams, isn't the same team on the road.


    That's all. I wouldn't touch that with a 10' pole myself but that's why the line is what it is.

    I can see a rival trap game. We're having way more success and are coming off a high. They just got spanked and if they ever had a reason to come at us it's now.

    Still -7.5 seems excessive.

    Is Dickerson back from the east coast in time for this game? I like the line but don’t want to bet till I know for sure he is playing.

    What was he doing on the east coast?

    He has a Instagram post an hour ago that indicate he’s playing today.

    Why is that? Seems like Altman has been able to sustain pretty elite teams since he has been here

    Im excited for this game. Dawgs will probably get rolled because of that.

    I had to put 100 on the spread at +8 and 50 on the money line at +300.

    Clearly we're going to get crushed because somebody knows something I don't, but now I have a reason to go to a sports bar.

    Looks like UW matches up pretty well with Oregon, at least looking at rosters and stats. Any thoughts about what matchups to watch? The Huskies are playing great defense. If they can keep Oregon's shooters from getting open 3's, why not a W?

    Pavlovian Dog negative conditioning makes it hard to truly doog just yet I think.

    He lost 4 players from his starting five, and two key bench players transfered. Even teams like Kentucky and North Carolina have had a serious down year every 5-6 years. Also, no matter how much duck fans like to think, they aren’t a duke, unc, Kansas, or Kentucky. Oregon isn’t signing 4 5 stars each class. We got two this next year which equals the number we had 10 years before combined

    Next time just give it to Derek or to the blow dealer or the Gorst stripper after hours.

    I went to some bar called Kung Fu with video games and found some Pablo. I'm already a wigwam member and bought a signed Derek books bundle.

    I have nothing left to give.
