A few years ago Tenn kept up with Oregon for a half. Tenn is better now so maybe it'll be a game for more than a half.
In the end, Ducks still win by 20+.

I'd love to see it but I don't see any way it happens.
DL: can't get pressure on the qb
LB: slow. Still unsure why everyone talks about AJ Johnson when he consistently gets burnt in coverage and over runs plays.
DB: slow. WKU found alot of success last week with the hitch route. That's WKU, combine that route with Oregon's offense and their speed and that could very quickly(no pun intended) spell disaster for the defense.
Then add in the tremendous lack of depth we have on that side of the ball. And lastly, I'm 100% confident we don't have a player on our roster that can catch Mariotta, much less the mamba if he gets loose...and that's just on defense.
Our great OL couldn't even get a consistent push against WKU. Sure they can pass block for days, but then we're stuck counting on an extremely inaccurate qb. Then add in the lack of depth we have at just about every position. Again, I'd love to see it happen; but I don't see any way we keep it within 35. Their speed and execution will be one thing, but there's going to be some extremely tired kids in orange on the sidelines. I love my alma mater, but I love money alot more. Oregon is the easy play here.

Daniel Hood was 277.... maybe 2 years ago.

Two years ago he was listed at 293. He probably plays better lighter.

I don't do this often, but I'm rooting for TN to upset the Ducks this weekend.
