Utah is much better than Oregon, and Florida is much worse than Georgia. The Utes are rightly a 2.5 favorite.
Totally agree. Oregon's offense is suspect and then facing an NFL caliber Bulldog Defense. Ducks got destroyed; never in the game.
Going into Week 2, Ducks might fall all the way out of Top 25.
I believe UTAH is in mid-season form with a LOT of talent returning.
Always tough going on the road in SEC.
U$C is not paying attention to their defense; they don't care -- the score with Rice should be 21-21.
Troy got a cheap 93yd Pick 6 when a good pass went through a receiver's hands to a DB at the 10.
Lincoln Riley actually shows a Zero-RB backfield at U$C... sacrilege.
Plummer ran Kal*Suck's offense efficiently, 23-35 for 268 yds, 3 TDs on UC Davis. For the win, 34-13.

Are we supposed to be happy about that?
KK -- let's see how good EJ Smith turns out to be; plus mixing in Casey Filkins, maybe frosh Arlen Harris as a power back.
Shaw says he like EJ as both a run and pass threat. Austin Jones might not have been the #1 RB had he stayed (?)
And, Jones wants to go bowling to move up the draft ladder. Stanford is not a ticket to a bowl right now.
Plus, I believe, this year's offense will be pass first -- because of McKee and a WR/TE Corp that goes 8 deep.
And I think this O-line is much better at pass blocking than run blocking. I think A.Jones sees all that.
