Rivalry game, the line will always start low. I expect it to be in the early 20's by the end of the week.
 
I actually have them at -14 with my formula. But you know, with Oregon it's give 30 or take 3 points.
 
Don't get too cocky about this one. Rivalry games are always tough, and there is literally nothing for OSU to play for other than keeping the Ducks out of the NC game
 
Cocky? I like that word. Now, put it with Poppy and you have a delicious snack...

Have you seen OSU's defense? It's really, really, really, bad. I posted stats a few days ago but they are giving up more than 400 yards a game. Now, they face one of the top rated offenses in the Country?

It could get ugly...

I expect OSU to find the end zone a few times, but let's be fair, here. OSU lost at home, big time, to WSU and all they are playing for is a little pride? The Ducks are playing for a shot at the NC. Who do you think will be more fired up??

I watched them stomp on USC defensively. They're capable of doing it. I haven't watched the team nearly enough to give an in-depth analysis of the team, but I've seen them play well, so I'm not ready to write them off.
 
I didn't get to see them play USC. Considering USC averages around 430 yards a game, and OSU held them to 255 - not bad. Were the 2 USC turnovers in that game forced or error? Same USC team that lost to ND...yikes.

Oregon had 600 yards of O AT USC
OSU had 328 vs USC at home

The barkrats only hope is if Thomas and James get hurt and we turn the ball over four times and every break goes their way. Otherwise, this one is over at half. :pimp:

The interception in the first half was an error because Barkley forced it in and the DB made a good play. I think the other turnover was a fumble, and I don't remember specifically when it was in the game.
 
A little too over confident there, Targus. I'd save it until after Saturday, man. (I'm a duck)

That's how I feel. I'm not a fan of woofing. I've seen the sporting gods smite an over-confident fanbase many times.

Nobody thought New England could beat the Rams, but they did.... hell, most people didn't even think the Pats would beat the spread (which was something like 21 points if I remember correctly).
 
If I had the $$ to bet, I would take the Ducks. That seams like easy $$ to me. But ya never know, this could end up being like the Ducks vs Cal.
