This is why I have been saying for a weeks I would rather be 4 and play bama, than 3 and play Oregon.

Fuck that....there is absolutely nothing Oregon is bringing this year that is any different from previous years....A good offensive and defensive line will beat them.

I'd wager we'd have to beat Oregon the same way they beat MSU, war of attrition and offensive dominance.

I honestly don't think Bama could handle our run game. They don't have outside speed. I'd take Bama over Oregon any day.

Please tell me why this [Mark May]ty Zona team was ranked ahead of Wisconsin?

Here's the thing. Somewhere between "Pac-12 is literally Jesus" and "Media overrated nonsense rabble rabble rabble" is the fact that Oregon is a very good team. Clearly worthy of a top 4 ranking and a chance to play in the playoffs. Arizona is ALSO a very good team, but not on an elite level. If this were the first round of a 3 round playoff where #2 and #7 were playing one another, this outcome might not surprise anyone.

We'll see tomorrow whether or not their ranking is justified as better than Wisconsin.

Neither of those teams playing last night made me afraid to play them. That scoreboard doesn't tell the story. If Oregon was facing an offense with any kind of pulse, they lose that game. It's easy to beat up on a team when their QB is playing like a third grader and your defense gets tired of kicking their ass due to being on the field for almost the entire game. The second and third string QBs far out-performed their starter, unfortunately it was too late for them to even get a foothold and they don't have a J.T. Barrett on their team.

Arizona had two first downs in the first half.

I think Oregon has a hell of a football team, but I wouldn't mind getting a crack at them. Looks similar to the team we played in the Rose Bowl, except I think that Oregon team was better than this one.
