Not this guy. That roster is shallow, and they are learning a new system with a new HC. I will be surprised if they win more than 8 games, but I am glad that they are playing here in Week 2 and not Week 10. They will be a better team at the end of the year - by a lot.
I think Oregon is one of the 2 or 3 most overrated teams in the nation. Mariotta may be the best QB in the nation but he doesn't play defense. They lost as much on defense as Stanford - if not more - and they don't have the same depth. Nov 1 in Autzen is still going to be a war, but I'm quietly optimistic because Oregon continues to have a Stanford problem.
