Yeah, and ×ÉÉ went for -40 yards rushing against UW after rolling up 8 on Oregon the week before. WSU doesn't bother running much. Oregon isn't stopping Love any better than Utah, probably more like UCLA.
Oregon has stopped such vaunted rushing attacks as:
FCS Southern Utah
#126 WSU (3.16 YPC)
#123 ×ÉÉ (2.95 YPC)
#119 Wyoming (3.26 YPC)
#99 ASU (3.05 YPC)
#80 Nebraska (4.16 YPC)
Stanford's rushing avg. is 2x YPC (8.1 YPC) of the highest avg. YPC team Oregon has faced, which is Nebraska at 4.16. IOW, Oregon has faced one rushing attack from a team in the top 50% of FBS, and four in the bottom 25% of the FBS. That's why they are #10 as of this week.
