Honestly not seeing a blowout at all.
Me neither. I think Oregon will score and I am hopeful our offense is not rusty. Thing is, AU and Oregon are both second half teams, so I might not feel as confident if we get behind as I did in other games this year. A lot will depend on how many plays Oregon gets in the first half and how fatigued our D may or may not be in the second.
My concerns are:
1. Getting out of position with Oregon's pace.
2. Oregon not running too many plays in the first half and getting our D worn down in the second like Oregon has done most teams.
3. LMJ is a small burner that is hard to get a good shot on. Our D has been stellar against the run all year, but against a lot of big backs that tried to play power football which doesn't work against our D. Oregon is angles, tempo, speed. Not power.

56-30 Auburn runs away with it.

And before I get laughed at on my prediction, let me remind, that although I got the winner wrong in the Iron Bowl, I said Bama would get closer to their 32 ppg scoring, than Auburn would theirs at 42 ppg. I said Auburn would get about 24 and Bama 28. I wasn't that far off on that either.

I agree with this especially about elusive speed backs and it very well could be an Arky type game who can bring it in the 4th the best and the freshest.
