Oregon has only one speed, and the TreeFense can't stop the run.

While I suspect Stanford will get smoked, Oregon isn't necessarily the juggernaut some imagine.

Oregon runs often but they haven't always run so efficiently. Curiously, they ran all over tOSU in their best performance of the year, quite well vs Arizona in a surprisingly tight game, and not so well vs Stony Brook and Fresno.

Also, look out for the other OSU. Since they switched to Nolan as their QB their offense has been lights out and defense okay. While their schedule hasn't been tough enough to evaluate them well, it looks possible that they could end up at the top of the North.

Sort of agree with you about this year's Beavs, but I don't think they'll hit the division finish-line in first place. Re 2021 Oregon in 2021, it really doesn't take a juggernaut of any kind to dispatch Stanford this season. And don't forget that the Ducks are 4-0. They do what they need to do to win, no matter the talent level of the opponent. As the season ages, their blades will get sharper. Cristobal's a winner. And he's hungry.

Unfortunately, I don't think "hungry" describes our own head coach.
