I feel the exact opposite of this.
That's cool. What I mean but that is I think Auburn is a better team, so they would take it if they play right after the season is played. But it is very hard to have these players in game shape after over a month off, and it's impossible to replicate a game, conditioning wise. Oregon tests a defense's endurance more than anyone else. And meanwhile, Cam has been making his heisman rounds away from the team. That's why I think the long break gives an advantage to Oregon. I'm not saying the overall advantage. Just an advantage.

That's why I thinks it hurts Oregon. With a month off, their sharpness won't be what it was at the end of the season to be able to run the offense the way they're used to. i.e. the Rose Bowl last year. After a month off, OSU drilled them.
It also gives AU a month to prepare instead of one week.
