Ohio State at Oregon (01/12/2015)

I was all set to invest a dime on the Ducks minus a touchdown or less to cut down the proverbial nets, but I am of the opinion the loss of those two (2) receivers, particularly Darren Carrington, is HUGE!  He is a flat axx playmaker and as my boy Robert Brooks would say, “A Shoe In” at the next level. 

BLA BLA BLA BLA With all that being said, after much prayer and deliberation, I am going to sit on my hands in this spot…  It has been a decent season and I wish all that wade in these waters the very best...  

Ducks  -6   Over   73

Only way Ohio wins is to keep the Duck offense on the sideline and not let them wear the defense down.  No way to prepare for this offense.  I think it is similar to the Michigan State game earlier this year, similar matchups.  Would be a better game if TCU were playing Oregon, in my opinion (and I am not a TCU or Big 12 fan.)

GLTA     Hate to see the college season over after tonight.

I thought the reason for this forum was to add sensible analogy that might give an edge to the bettor.  Most of these  posts are painful to read. Not all of them but allot of them are just BLA BLA BLA.   I'm taking the  Ducks and  here is  why ..

Defense for the most part is reactionary. Oregon runs plays  fast and they are relentless regardless if the play results in a gain or a loss.  It doesn't take much to disrupt some of the young players into over thinking what's coming next.

As far the Ohio win over Bama .. doesn't mean a thing.  Sims isn't in the same category as Mariota. 

Ducks 45- Bucks 34

Huh? That is some grade A homer BS if I ever heard it LOL Oregon had to run through the pac 10? the pac 10 is probably the worst power 5 conference in terms of defense. They only had 2 defenses in the top 25 in rush defense. #7 Stanford and #22 Washington. The next best rush D was flippin' pathetic Cal at #38. The only top 25 rushing team they had was Oregon at #17. the Big 10 had #1 Mich state, #3 PSU, #15 Michigan, and #23 Wisconsin rush defenses and the # 3, #8,#9, #18 and #20 rush offense. The B1G was FAR better vs the run, and for that matter overall. They had 4 out of the top 10 total defenses in the country. the Pac had ONE in the top FIFTY. Stanford LMAO

Oregon may win. But there is no way that Oregon's average Defense holds OSU's running game under 250 yards without a slew of turnovers or to 17 points. OSU scored 45 ppg in a FAR better defensive conference than the PAC, only 2.2 ppg less than Oregon.
