Hey guys, I'm new to this board, but I'm an Oregon fan and wanted to get your opinion on this game.

From looking back on this board, I can see most things have been discussed. However, I have not seen a lot of discussion in common opponents between the ducks and tigers.

Last season, both LSU and Oregon played Tennessee. Oregon started off slowly in the first half, but ended up blowing out Tennessee in the second half. Oregon won 48-13 at Tennessee.

LSU pretty much lost to Tennessee if they don't have more than 11 men on the field. LSU won 16-14 at home.

Now LSU is losing some of their best defensive and offensive players. Oregon keeps their main offensive play makers, but loses some experience in the trenches.

We both lost to Auburn, but Oregon still played them better.

My question is how can you be so confident about your team winning when Oregon played better in both games against common opponents.

This is why Oregon fans are confident in this game.

Auburn held Oregon's O to 19 points, and LSU's 2011 D will be about twice as better as Auburn's. If LSU can improve its O just a little bit from last season, LSU should beat Oregon.

That being said, I like Chip Kelly and think Oregon will give LSU all they can handle.

you are aware that teams change, correct? this isnt 2010.

common opponents is a terrible judge of a future game, as each and every game is about matchups.

LSU will be better offensively this year than last. Defensively, slightly down from last year, but still a terrific defense.

This means nothing dude. Think about it. We have to get up for so many more games in the SEC than you do in the PAC10, trap games happen alot. Plus, we can play the "LSU beat blah, who lost to blah, who beat blah" all day long, and it don't mean shite.

We lost 3 key defensive players, but will be just as strong at each position. We will have much less depth at LB, however. Defensive backfield will be #1 in the country, watch and see. D-line will destroy your gameplan.

Actually a well thought out and decent 1st post though. Stick around man. You will get kind of beat up from time to time, but you will have fun. And the game will be great!

Last year, Ark beat A&M by 7. LSU beat A&M by 17. So, according to your logic, LSU would beat Ark. Oh wait, that didn't happen. A&M beat OU by 14, LSU beat A&M by 17, so I guess LSU would beat OU by 31? Yeah right. Your logic is terrible.

I would say losing by 3 points compared to 7 is absolutely meaningless.
