They have to get past our o line first.
Oregon has a pretty complex blitzing scheme dude. I get what you are saying. However, we have an extremely athletic dline and a complex scheme. We installed a more expansive package this fall. The defense is always ahead of the offense in the first game. I have more confidence in our extremely athletic lbs (kaddu, lokombo and clay) to get to the qb at this point in the season. Besides, I wasn't at all impressed with your oline's pass protection at times last year. The ducks will get after it.

Bisonduck, as an Oregon fan, you more than most should understand what it's like for a first year starter under Crowton. Think Dennis Dixon in 2006. Dixon had 12 TDs and 14 INTs. Most of that was horrible coaching by Crowton. Now realize that Dixon was a JR that year and had played at least some snaps the previous two seasons.
Now realize that Lee was a RS Freshman with no playing experience starting in the freaking SEC with coaching at QB in college only under Crowton. He struggled, and if not for the anomaly of his 7 Pick 6's that year, he'd have basically been Dennis Dixon statistically as a passer (13 TDS, 16 INTS) while also splitting time with another QB.
One year after getting a legit QB coach/OC, Dixon turned into a Heisman candidate and before getting injured was leading your team into an NC shot. Lee doesn't have the legs of Dixon obviously, but only needs to be slightly above average this season to help LSU win. With a legit QB coach (which he has this year), it is believable that he could greatly improve.

Nothing we haven't seen man. And our O line is going to be even better than last year, believe me we're stout. With the wear and tear our line has seen through this fall camp forgive me for doubting that you can out physical us. We're deep dude. Deeper than your d line probably runs. If you wanna talk trench control with O vs D I think our team has to be the favorite here.
