The oline could be our best ever by the time of the playoffs. Grasu looks like he will be back for the playoffs. Andre Y and Pierson are back for the Colorado game. By the time we get to the playoffs we could have 8 OL healthy that have started this year at one point.

/We have the likely Heisman winner on our team./

A hotshot QB does not a championship team make. How many Super Bowls did the Broncos lose with Elway at the helm?
Teams that rely on a high-powered offense to compensate for a mediocre defense, racking up 40+ points per game through the regular season against hapless opponents, are susceptible to a psychological breakdown when they go up against a stifling defense in the big game. They tend to become frustrated when the opposing defense denies them their habitual score on every drive, and that frustration eventually leads to mental errors, cf. 1989 Buffaloes and 2002 Hurricanes.
I certainly hope the Ducks win out, so we can all witness their debacle against the defense of the SECW champion in the playoff.

Weakest SEC in a decade. If you are going to do it this is your year.

Same thread different year. UO probably won't even make the playoff.

I disagree. Oregon is exactly the type of team that gives Alabama trouble.

We designed a defense to stop Stanford. Part of our problem is we have too big a front seven and we don't use multiples. Against Bama, we'd actually fare better than Miss State. Put our linebackers out in space and they look like shite.

That, and Ifo and Armstead, our lockdown corner and 5 million dollar DE, have played all year on an ankle sprain. Give them 4 weeks to rest up and I like our chances against the pass and the rush.

Oregon and the SEC w champ may both end up in the playoffs and neither play each other. Oregon may get knocked out by someone else. You admit you have problems with teams who spread it out ie. Ohio State/TCU/Baylor. One of them could end up as the matchup for the Ducks.

The SEC champ may have to deal with another team first as well, who will have time to gameplan etc. No team is untouchable this year, or really any year. Fluke plays, bad quarters, questionable coaching decisions can all lead to huge momentum swings

I would definitely be really concerned with TCU's offense probably more than any other team.

Why do they scare you more than the other good spread teams? Curious as to your thought process.

Primarily because of the type of athlete that TCU has at QB and RB. We have given up major yards to "slippier" rbs like Perkins at UCLA, Lasco at Cal and Wilson at Arizona. More power back oriented guys like Booker at Utah and Langford at MSU got shut down in the run game. TCU has Boykins and Green that fit the mold.

tOSU seems to be more power oriented. It's that they don't scare me but TCU is our kryptonite.
