AU, LSU, aTm, and healthy UGA could all hang with Oregon.
Although I would have Oregon winning by 7-14 points against most of those.

Our offense could but our defense would get burned badly.

This is the correct answer - minus Tenn, they had their shot and are part of the reason Oregon thinks they could "hang" with the SEC.
Oh, and Oregon players hate their fans-
Canzano Blog: Ex-Duck Player to Duck Fans, "Go (bleep) yourselves!"
I Love The Ducks. I Hate Duck Fans.
I, for the first time, attended a ducks game as spectator. I was excited to experience tailgating, cheering, and being with friends, rather than the seriousness that comes with preparing for a game. My buddy, whom I had given tickets to all throughout my time as a player, decided he wanted to pay me back and offer me tickets in corner end-zone seats as a regular fan. I accepted his offer with enthusiasm.
We enjoyed seeing friends, shaking hands, and sharing drinks with fellow supporters.
My friend and I took our seats where I soon became acquainted with the most ignorant people in all of college football. Directly behind me were a couple of drunk (expletive) who criticized Marcus' ability to throw the football, DeAnthony's ability to run the football, the lineman's ability block, and the coach's ability to analyze film and call plays. After hearing so much ignorant (expletive), I turned around to tell the "fans" to chill the (expletive) out. Marcus had overthrown a receiver on a tough play and the spectator made comment, "Hey, Marcus! Throw it inbounds, dumbass!" in, which I finally had enough, and turned around and asked if he would like to get down there and take Marcus' place. The man responded, "No". Then I asked if we were all still rooting for Oregon, in which he responded in an aggressive, irrelevant and incoherent manner and so I decided to discontinue the conversation I had started with him.
I was then verbally attacked by other spectators saying, "you need to keep your (expletive) mouth shut, because you don't know (expletive) about football." They claimed that I didn't know that they had coached college football, and that I had no idea what I was talking about. Ironic to say the least, considering my background and what you know of me, what my old teammates know of me, and what my old coaches know of me.
Not too long after, a woman a couple seats down yelled for 10 minutes straight about how the players were playing like "(expletive)". The coaches were being "(expletive)". The refs were being "(expletive)". All during the time I was telling my friend how embarrassing it was to have her on our side. And then I started hearing laughter from the surrounding crowd and encouragement of that behavior. Is this really what goes on in the stands? Is this really the type of people we attract???
I remember walking in from fall camp practice and talking to my teammates about how similar our lives were to the TV series Spartacus. We were slaves. We were paid enough to live, eat, and train... And nothing more. We went out on the field where we were broken down physically and mentally every day, only to wake up and do it again on the next. On the outside, spectators placed bets and objectified us. They put us on pedestals and worshipped us for a short time, but only as long as we were winning. In the end, we were just a bunch of dumbass (racial slur) for the owners to whip, and the rich to bet on.
What I described is a business, I know. It's how it works, and it is something we understand as athletes entering the system, as (expletive) up as it is. For many people entering that system, it's better than what life has to offer elsewhere. So they take it. But having been on the outside now, to witness this disgusting display of "support", I know that I want no (expletive) part of it. I will never attend a duck game as a spectator again. I am disgusted by duck fans and I will sit back and observe from afar with high hopes for the player's success and understanding of their sacrifice, without having to hear the spoiled woes of ignorant fans.
I will always love the ducks: my coaches, my teammates, my brothers and family. The rest... Go (expletive) yourselves.

Damn dude good shite. At the Oregon vs LSU game ducks fans stood in front of us until they scored and held out there hands up in a "O". Most annoying thing ever needless to say the guys in front of us didn't do it for very long....

At the AU-Oregon game an Oregon girl in front of us told her friends not to "stand during Auburn's song" and they all sat down.
It was either the national anthem or God bless America.

Wisconsin fan....Sounds like you cheeseheads are still butthurt over the last few Rose Bowls. Beaten by Oregon followed by Stanford. You all suck and so does your conference. You didn't belong in those games and had no right playing teams ranked in the top 10. Stick to the shallow end of the pool. Bitches.

We scored 42 on Bama. It'd be a 4 quarter game.
AU might have the best DL in the country. You'd finally face a pass rush. AU would run for at least 150 too.
Bama.
I think LSU and Mizzou would make it interesting.

Any SEC team that can hang with aTm, could hang with Oregon. Don't try to feed me your "good defense" bullshite.

"They couldn't play through an SEC schedule argument" is BS. Aggies don't have a defense. LSU was beaten by Ole Miss. Arkansas is terrible. Auburn could only beat the Aggies cause A&M has no defense. They wouldn't stand a chance against Oregon. What grind? The PAC 12 has as much depth as the SEC this year.
UCLA has a better front 7 than most SEC schools. Oregon would run through the SEC like A&M did for the most part last year, and the only team that has more talent and could give us trouble is Alabama. No one else can hang with us THIS YEAR.

It's easy to hang with A&M when you can score on every drive.
Check Oregon's defensive stats buddy.

So...you're saying that...the one-loss best team in the Pac 10 last year would have finished third in the western division of the SEC?
Sounds about right, but I'm a little surprised that you admit it.

Sounds about right, A&M lost to LSU and Flordia last year before beating Bama.

I said we would run through the SEC like A&M did for the the most part. Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit. They finished with 2 conference losses. We would win every game except maybe Alabama, as the Tide are the only team who can beat us.

The real question is how many of you will stick around for the fallout when Stanford beats you next Thursday.
Posted on 10/31/13 at 11:44 am to DWag215
You're an idiot if you think Oregon's defense is comparable to A&M's.
My point is we would put up points and get stops. A&Mcant get stops. I don't know if we can beat Alabama. I'm pretty sure we can beat everyone else.
