FWIW, Phil Steele's take on Oregon
This is based on his magazine, so it might be a little outdated. He has Oregon finishing 3rd in the division, but still gives them a shot to contend for the top spot. Offensively, they have the least experienced OL unit in the league. On the other hand, he says their RBs are tops in the conference. Defensively, they are strong at linebacker and he picks them to be better than they were a year ago.
OVerall, he calls for them to have a similar year, maybe a notch behind last year.
I don't really know how good Oregon is, but they always beat us with speed. I know they didn't get slow overnight and we didn't get that much faster. A win against them, especially with our QB situation, would be a huge milestone. Hopefully, Hawg will give us Steele's prediction for this week.
