I don't remember them being the favorite in the NC, I could be remembering incorrectly though...But they have happened. twice last year, twice the year before.
They were favored for 50 straight games until MSU gameI don't remember them being the favorite in the NC, I could be remembering incorrectly though...
I think they were the betting favorite, which means absolutely nothing IMO.I don't remember them being the favorite in the NC, I could be remembering incorrectly though...

Still, I don't know if I'd call a team losing the NC game an upset. Even if it technically is...
I acknowledged that it was Un upset. I just don't think it makes much sense to look back and use a game like that of an example of them being upset. It was the biggest game of the year between the two supposed best teams. It's not like they were being picted to win by multiple touchdowns against an Arizona or Utah. The final betting line had them favored by a touchdown to against a team that just beat Alabama. Was anyone really shocked by the outcome?How do you define an upset? I think they may have been 7 point favorites. They were the 2 seed, OSU was the 4.

Yeah, it makes more sense if you factor in the reason I gave...So using a game that you admitted was an upset doesn't make sense to use as an example of an upset.
Okay. Makes sense.
Being a blindfolded dart thrower having been spun around & around by giggling Quenceanera girls, I've no credence as a predictor.
Irrelevant data?
I'm going with the Water Fowl.
- Utah has scored 24 points vs Michigan and Utah State. They scored 45 against Fresno St. Oregon has yielded 42 to Eastern Washington, 31 to MSU, and 28 to GSU. I'm thinking that Utah scores between 24 and 42 against the Ducks.
- Oregon scored 61 on EWash, 28 vs MSU, and 61 vs GSU. Utah has yielded 17 to Michigan, 14 to USU, and 24 to Fresno St. Utah may have a stingier D than EW or GSU, but I'm thinking that they won't hold Oregon to 4 TDs. To me, it seems likely the Ducks score 40+...

Oregon in a blowout.
What's that? The four mormons of the apocalypse?
