I disagree. The reason tOSU won was because they converted some HUGE third downs on O. Oregons O shot itself in the foot on crucial third down plays as much as it was tOSU stopping them.


So, Oregon's offense - one of the most efficient in the country all season long - suddenly just lost their shite and forgot how to play football? Had nothing to do with tOSU's defense at all, huh?

Did you watch the game? Oregon drove it down the field on their first drive. They didn't have a minus yardage play on the drive. On the second drive, on third and maybe four, Mariota hit his WR between the numbers...........and he dropped it. On their third drive, on third down, Mariota hit a wide open guy 40 plus yards down the field, in his hands.....and he dropped it. Oregon shot themselves in the foot more than what tOSU was doing on D.
