I say we beat Oregon rather easily. Say... 49 - 17, and have our 2nd string in by the 4th quarter, when Oregon scores 14 of their points.

    I'm enjoying the false confidence and how everyone including the ESPN talking heads is treating Oregon like the underdog. Comments by Browning indicate he has a weakness for this kind of talk too.

    It's okay. I have to work in Portland all week and listen to my baristas and bartenders act like the ducks are favored to make the playoffs.

    They aren't favored but it's possible if UO beats UW and runs the rest of the table.

    You lost at home to Stanford
    So what, lost to AZ at home while wearing pink in 2014. We don't make the playoffs this year, not a playoff caliber team yet, but anything is possible.

    The team no one expects to win. The players will feed off that. A lot of them have 70-21 posted in their lockers.

    Maybe not here, tends to be a little more realistic here, but everyone everywhere else seems to think the Huskies are the last hope for the PAC this year. I think they're betting on the wrong team.

    Welcome to last season
    New coach, Slick Willie is gone, all of that is thrown out the window.

    Tell them to score a TD against the Dawgs first.

    38-3.

    Hi there. I’ve casually browsed the box scores this year and I can confidently say that Oregon is not good. HTH.

    None of our starters have ever played against Oregon either, so they should be equally excited.

    Washington might be the better team, sure, but I'm hearing that Herbert and Mitchell play better against elite secondaries.

    That's great. You know nothing about Oregon this year. You're going to get a shock.

    Oregon is only 3 spots lower than Cuog, so, they got THAT going for them.
