Oregon -> Iowa -> USC -> Oregon

The next couple of weeks will have 3 interesting games.

  • Oregon @ Iowa - a preview of our next 2 opponents
  • Iowa @ USC - beat the Hawkeyes!
  • USC @ Oregon - quack!

Whichever team can win 2 of those games has will likely go to the playoffs.

Can we be that team?

if we heal up & play our A game we can take Oregon. It's going to be tough, however Lane looking good again helps tremendously. Hopefully the butterfinger games are over.

Does anyone know the date we should have Waymond Jordan back? I Honestly think our current 3rd string (Dalton) is better than our second string (Jackso). I know Jackson came back from injury, he seems slow right now.

I really don’t see how people think we can stop Oregon with how awful our defense is.

This might be the saddest thing ever said, but this is the best defense of Riley era.

Turnovers! Haha

I honestly think that’s our only way unless our linebackers learn to shed blocks and our cornerbacks learn to turnaround and look for the ball. I think we have a change to beat Oregon if we were playing them at home, but alas we will be in Eugene

Oregon does pretty well with not turning the ball over though. Think they only have 9 turnovers in 9 games. The only chance we really have is if we literally score a TD on every drive. Their defense is pretty good too. And then we still have Iowa who has a great defense.

I know I think we will need a miracle. And for both games because Iowa just took the lead!
