They're trending down. We're trending up.

Allen H. Browning

If everybody brings their A game, we are a top 5 team.

Shad Fischer

Oregon is on a downward spiral and has a problem with run heavy teams. We have an experienced secondary so I think we have a chance.

Stephen Douglas

Oregon has had its day in the sun, they are done. Helfrich can't do what Kelly did, Hoke can not redirect a defense that spends too much time on the field

El Macho Borracho

Stupid Question. Should be 100% Yes. Of course they stand a chance.

Oregon as aprogram is used to winning.nebraska forgot whatit takes to win.

Patrick Nelson

the defence has not been proven yet

Danny Baker

Not yet. It may be close for awhile, but Oregon will prevail. Not enough experience yet.

Nebraska is known over the years to have struggled against running Quarterbacks, they have to make sure that doesn’t happen today!!!

Robert Lloyd

I think our OL is the most problematic thing, not Emmett Johnson. If MSU gets on a roll and stops Dylan then we are in trouble.

Mitch Bronston

Any time you stop the run, you make a team one dimensional

the OL has to play better. the running backs can't run if there aren't any holes to run into. they have to protect the QB, 1 or 2 sacks are acceptable, but they can't give up 7 again.

I believe Coach Rhule and his staff have the ability to get the team to understand their shortcomings in the last game and will show them how to overcome the obstacles that Michigan presented. GO BIG RED!!! 🎈🎈🎈

Robert Lloyd

I believe we have three coordinators who will get the job done.

winning 4 big 10 games in a row very difficult with 2 away

Tim Michelsen

15 is stationary needs to help out line. He is a defensive line dream

Betty ONeill

We have to play and coach better

AK-460Mag Nurse

I doubt it, but I'd be happy with 3/4 at this point. Hope I'm wrong though.

Bill Petty

Can't get stops when it counts the most. Can't move ball when it counts the most. O line and D line have been and continue to be a problem. I am not hopeful going forward.

George mcdaniel

They will go 1 and 3

Richard Johnson

We have a DC that can't adjust on the fly.

Sporty361

Our line play is mediocre. We have skill players but our line play on both sides will be our limiting factor. We need to find toughness for 4 quarters. In this age of celebrating every yard, we lose rock hard toughness.

Roy Katskee

Football games are won with offensive and defensive lines. We have neither.

John Reeb

Our O-Line & D-Line are simply not good enough to get the job done.
