I'd bet a large chunk of change this won't occur.

If you really want to hurt the Ducks, don't open the roof, water the lawn. You are all power up the middle per what I've read on this board so a wet field won't hurt you much. We will beat you to the corners, LSU world class DE sprinters or not, so if we can't make the cuts, it changes the game.



Why do duck fans believe their team is the only one that can have an advantage with perfect field conditions?

LSU is good on turf also. See bowl games.

If the Ducks take off their termal underwear and the woolie socks, they should be up to the task of battling the Tigers in their own element.

Anyone's assumption that all the Ducks are from the north are mistaken. The 4th quarter will not be a factor because someone will get blown out before the 4th quarter starts. Who is doing the blowing and who is doing the sucking will remain to be seen and played.

I wish my golf score was in the 80s brah.

But if you meant "It" instead of "I" as I suspect you did, you are only off by a magnitude of oh, EIGHT.

Unless you think "a couple" = 18.

In which case, I wouldn't trust any of your golf scores.

Ah negative ghost rider....there is no way you can simulate these brutal conditions we live in on the Gulf Coast. Especially the level of humidity.


Go in the indoor facility they have when they are replicating the conditions. I've been there and spent plenty of time in the Southeast and Midwest so I know what humidity is like. Between the sprinkers and the heaters going it looks and feels like a sauna in there.

They don't feel that way. But they do feel overall it is a bigger advantage for oregon to play on turf than grass. So while LSU will also have an advantage, the feeling is that Oregon will have a bigger advantage in that respect. Grass fields have killed Oregon because they rely on Misdirection and acceleration which were nulified on that BCS field.
