Nevada's Last 5 games:

Jan 9 - Won 20-13 vs Boston College
Dec 4 - Won 35-17 at Louisiana Tech
Nov 26 - Won 34-31 vs Boise State(68)
Nov 20 - Won 52-6 vs New Mexico State
Nov 13 - Won 35-34 at Fresno State

I haven't even checked how many returners NRV has. Just can't pass this up. The only thing OU has going for it is a home game. And believe me, home field is not nearly as strong out there as it is here. Get it while the gettin's good... and I 'd have to say they're a little "spent" after last week.

You are crazy. They lost CK, Taua, their stud TE, and the stud DE all to the NFL. They return nothing and are going to be just as horrible this year as they were before CK came along.

You know what they say about people who can't be replace: They graveyard's full of 'em.

I once heard of a team in Baton Rouge who lost their starting QB, were underdogs and won handily...

I'm laying my cheese on the line before these superstars are discovered. The coach has made 6 straight bowl appearances and last time I checked, he's still there. Better not pass this up, Grasshoppers!

He was their team.

LSU wins in spite of the QB play. LSU is also more talented at every other position besides QB against every team they face..

Again.. COLIN KAEPERNICK WAS NEVADA..

Ducks have a huge home field advantage.. one of the biggest. They should roll by 30+ Especially coming off the LSU game.

I run a handicapping website but people like you make me wish I could take the bets instead of just provide information.

Autzen may not be as big as some of it's contemporaries but they had an acoustics consultant help design the stadium so it would hold noise..and if you've never been there, it's fricking loud. I was there on Halloween night when they played USC and it was uncomfortably loud..kind of like the swamp a few years ago when they laid 50 on us.

Can I be your bookie?

Didn't they do a research showing that the way their stadium is built makes it one of the loudest?

Colin Kaepernick was a 4 year starter and is gone.

Nevada has also struggled vs the number the last few years. It may have been Vegas over estimating their ability to cover big numbers with CK, but he's gone now. They may have given them too much this weekend. However, Oregon will look to score 50 on Saturday. Can Nevada put up 24 with a new QB?

Oregon's a good team. They just didn't match up well with LSU. That's a lot of points, but Nevada lost a ton. Oregon and Chip Kelly are really looking to make a statement after that mammoth arse beating they just received. Oregon rolls.
