Your analysis is top shelf. You have nothing to back up your assertion and your are basing this great analysis on the two games Oregon had in the past against the SEC champs. Good Job.

Or the 2010 Rose Bowl. Until Oregon starts showing up and beating teams with legitimate defenses you are going to keep hearing the same thing.

Don't take this as a knock on Oregon. They are clearly an upper tier program right now but they still don't have the signature wins outside of conference play for elite status.

All we heard in 2010 was how fast Oregon was and how they would run over Ohio State. 260 total yards of offense later a different tune was being sung.

You need to calm your little oregon friend down. He is way overboard this a.m. His love of the DUCK icon in the MSB pic has him a raging hard-on.

I started a request to get it removed and sure enough he is in there tell me I am cryin and he is acting like a true 10 year-old.

I think most SEC teams outside of ole miss, kentucky, and vandy would love to take a shot at the ducks.

Oregon is coming off a signature win. The team is as stacked as it's been in 3 years with Chip. It's not even the same team.

The offensive line is much more athletic and deep. The defensive line is considered the best unit on the team. There are four returning DTs, 2 returning DE, the last two that make of the two deep are 4* JUCO redshirt, Jared Ebert, and freshman phenom, Armstead.

In all honesty, I really don't care if fans dismiss Oregon. It will all play out on the field.

Wisconsin? Really? Their defense couldn't stop us last year and Ohio State was pathetic on offense.

I wouldn't be hanging my hat on that as a signature win.

Wisconsin was your league winner. They were also your best defense statistically. .

The opponent may have not been a signature win, but it was a signiture win in terms of it being the Rose Bowl. It was their first in nearly 100 years. So it matters on how you define "signature win".

If that Flyin Hawaiin freshman plays as good as he did in the spring game, I was there and saw him in person, then Oregon will meet LSU in Miami... I couldn't get over how in control he was. Outplayed Bennety by a mile.

But how in Gods Earth could you leave out DAT off that list?
because he's not that good of a player imo. he's fast. so fricking what. alot of people in college are fast. When i see DAT run the ball, i'm on the edge of my seat because i know the ball will be on the ground within the next few seconds.

quote:

As for 7th ward, that is different. He is a guy that claims to be a expert in CFB. And he alone I was challenging. Personally I did not create this thread with anything UO as a reason. Even if we sucked this year and had no flashy players I would of still be interested just as much. Only, I was challenging that guys bias, which is apparent, is all...
well, when surrounded by posters with the CFB knowledge of yours, i guess you can consider me an expert. Sammy Watkins is the best receiver in college football since Dez Bryant
TM7 might be the best playmaker in the nation, bar none.
Denard Robinson has been making highlight reel plays for MULTIPLE years, not just one.
Braxton Miller was a stud last year for OSU in Luke frickin Fickel's offense. He is about to rape face in an Urban Meyer system If he can pack on some weight, he could very well be the next Cam Newton
Robert Woods is another great receiver. His hands and body control is amazing. A good route runner and he gets separation from almost any corner, as well as being able to go up and get it in traffic. Him and Marquise Lee will be an AMAZING tandem this year

quote:

As for my comments to 7th ward, that is personal, between him and I and for personal reasons.
and now we get to the roots. You're a bitch. Straight up, because only a bitch holds grudges on internet message boards

quote:

The kid will sell himself on his own by stepping out of the shadow of the Nations #1 leading rusher(for 2 straight years), and the other top PAC-12 rusher this season
The shadow cast by the nation's #1 rusher is why he even shined like he did last season dumbass. You're a fool if you think DAT is gonna be an every down back

its been 30 secs, somewhere DAT just fumbled


quote:

Which means you cannot play for the Big Ten title game, which means your season is in toast, which means this is a waste of a season for you, ala USC 2010-1011.
the same USC who was the real champs of the PAC 12 N last season, and wasted your national title hopes!?

quote:

DAT got 77.5 average yards per carry in the Rose Bowl
HE HAD 2 frickING CARRIES. WISCONSIN IS SLOW AS shite AND SLOW ON THE EDGES OF THEIR DEFENSE, WHICH WAS EXPOSED BY TCU IN THE PREVIOUS ROSE BOWL AND UNLV EARLY IN THE frickING SEASON.

7thward - DAT was evaluated as a 5* at four different positions coming out of high school. He will be a gunner on punts, a punt returner and he plays slot back - not runningback. He will probably catch 50 passes and run the ball 10 times a game. I wouldn't be surprised to see the kid get 2,500 all purpose yards and getting 30 tackles.
