I agree, Oregon should win, just don't think I've ever seen that before.

Weather won't be an issue. Washington struggling with teams Oregon is blowing out. Teams have clearly went opposite directions since playing each other.

It also feels like it may be set a little high to get your average person to put money on Washington. This line tells me Vegas thinks its going to be a 10+ point win for Oregon if not a blowout.

I personally think thats a little high given that Washington's offense could break out of the funk at any moment. That WR room is no joke.

Odunze is the only one who has kept his level of play up. The rest have either been injured or not played great, which has been a big reason their offense has sputtered against some bad teams.

Oregon being favored is no surprise at all. UW has been struggling the last few weeks and Oregon has been rolling.

Vegas is assuming bettors watched the first game, where the Oregon head coach sandbagged his own team.

And naturally, they will go off on this stage. This game is going to be close.

Oregon lost to a team considerably worse than them.

That should keep them out of the playoffs.

Alabama beat Florida in an OT game in the 1999 regular season, and Florida was favored by 7 in the SECCG. Alabama won that game too.

In 2007, Boston College beat Va Tech 14-10 in the regular season and were 8.5 point dogs in the ACC title game. Va Tech won by 14.

In 2018, Oklahoma lost to Texas 48-45 in the regular season. Oklahoma was a 6 point favorite in the Big 12 title game and won the title game by 12.

Oregon is playing MUCH better football than Washington has been the last month. Washington has scraped by multiple bad football teams while Oregon has been killing people.

According to Bama fans if the committee was selecting today Oregon should be taken instead of Washington

Shows how dumb that logic is….

Also, 2003 lsu was underdogs by 4.5 to UGA in the sec champ game even though lsu won game 1. They preceded to win game 2 by 21….. once again shows how dumb bama logic is.

What does that do for the head to head argument? There is obviously recognition that the Ore team has gotten better...UW not so much

Using Alabama math that means that Oregon should be ranked ahead of Washington before they even play this weekend.

I can see Oregon favored but my money would go hard to UW with that line.

As I mentioned on another thread, UW is probably very tired of hearing how Oregon is so much better, after having beaten them once.

IIRC, Lanning made some real questionable calls that helped his team lose. I guess they expect him to have learned his lesson.
