Wisconsin's D isn't as good as it normally is...usually they have a beast d-lineman who makes them really good (like a JJ Watt). They don't have that this year. And Oregon's speed isn't a good matchup for them either.

But luckily Oregon's defense can't stop shite.

This is when you lose to a team as fast and more physical than you are. Oregon has to be considered a top tier program right now. I hope the Ducks win tonight.

With Wisky and Oregon you have two of the Nations top Offenses. Should it then be any surprise if the score is higher?


sure, slightly higher. But no one is going to put Oregon as a top flight defensive team. Most decent teams are scoring 30+

Ted Miller of ESPN did a piece about it and showed how they were not far behind Bama- yards/play; which is a more correct stat to look at when viewing Oregon because of how little time they are on the field on Offense cause they score so quickly.

You buddy, need to get a clue...Yards/play. Yards/play. Not overall yardage dumb arse...Go to ESPN, click on PAC-12, and read Ted Millers Piece yourself...

1.5 yards/play is not close. Hell, LSU isn't even that close to Alabama in yards/play.

We are talking about this year's defense. Who cares about a decade ago when Brees was playing.

Ted Miller said it was close. And well, he is no homer as he was born in Atlanta, and covered Auburn at one time... Knows the SEC really well...
Anyways, he went deep into this in a recent piece.

Anyways, look at last years Natty with Auburn. NO one last year in the SEC could shut down Cam Newton. But Oregon had no troubles. And last year Oregon shut down Auburn to half of their season's average.

Thus, Oregon may not have the best D, or the greatest, but it is respectable at least unlike Baylor or Washington...

Are you seriously going to argue that stupid comment? You are truly too stupid to even argue with.

Why? If his back-up got the same touches he would have had virtually the same production as Montee.

Griffin > Luck > Richardson > SEC > Moose Knuckles > Big 12 defenses > Montee Ball.

No disrespect ducksfly but miller said Oregon and WISCONSINs defenses were close in terms of yard per play. 4.93 to 4.85. Id say they are pretty close. They r both pretty bad.

Well that settles it. Oregon's D is almost as good as Bama's D.

Auburn had over 500 yards of total offense. Grats on holding them 22 points though.
