Considering we will have more fan advantage vs Oregon which they are considered a top 5 team. WVU has a brand new coach and is installing a brand new offense, but WVU is considered one of the toughest places to play in college football, so which game will be tougher??

Yea and it is the first GM of the year... The WVU game reminds me alot of the Washington game a few years ago for some reason and we handled that pretty well...

WV is overhyped. It will be a good game, no doubt. But LSU is still out of their league.

Oregon by far they are a NC contending team who just came off their best season in a long time. Their team thinks they can dominate anyone they play. West Va is trying to recover from a disappointing season for them when they should have won the Big East with the amount of talent they had.

Neither game will be a picnic. Oregon will be tougher because, offensively, they are unconventional and have lots of weapons.

We play in tough environments all the time. Auburn, Florida, UGA, Tennessee and Bama are all in the same league as WVU. Don't get me wrong, WVU is probably a better balanced team than Oregon - but Oregon is a threat to score points in bunches.

Oregon, IMO. LSU has to bring their A game to beat the Ducks.

WVU is only beating LSU if we turn the ball over and have some stupid mistakes.

this... I think LSU can't get in a track meet with OR because that doesn't play in our favor, our D has to play big all game IMO....
