I think so

I think you are very right brother. No doubt.

Would Oregon have won if Drew Brees (in his prime) was playing for them?

See? This is a dumb post

That is a dumb question. Unlike the OP's question since it is a typical question that gets asked when comparing Heisman candidates.

But the answer to your dumb question is the same as the answer to the OP's valid question, probably so.

I think it would be interesting to see if they would have run that same dink and dunk offense.

LSU and JD5 made a conscious effort to improve their downfield passing game and not only did they, but they improved it to the point of it being a strength.

Not sure Oregon makes that same commitment, in fact the short passing game is what they want to do.

So if they run the same offense with JD5, and I think they do, would they win? I would still lean to yes because I think JD5 maybe pops a couple of extra runs Nix would not be able to execute.

I mean Washington's national defensive rank was 79th in the country. Wasn't exactly Alabama or A&M's defense or even close.

No doubt about it. Won both times and be 13-0 instead of Washington.
