[HuskerinBig10]

The vaunted Richmond Spiders of the FCS held Virginia to 38 yards rushing.

The even more vaunted Oregon Quacks held Virginia to just 193 yards rushing. Virginia had nearly 400 yards total offense.

Previous opponents
UC Davis rebounded and beat up Southern Oregon.
Fresno State beat Sacramento.

Oregon's Total Defense ranks 82nd after playing two cupcakes. The Oregon defense allows a lot of first downs.

Nebraska's Total Defense is ranked 33rd.

There will be lots of penalty flags in this game. Oregon is averaging 10 penalties per game and Nebraska is averaging 7.

Bet the over on the score and bet the over on the penalties.

Man. Very disappointed in the Ducks so far this season. The offense looked blah in both games and the D has yet to show up.

The scary thing for the Ducks is that the defense may very well have shown up.

 

[OregonDucks]

Lots of overreacting to this game. UVA scored late on garbage time.

Oregons defenses always give up yards, but they don't give up that many points.

Have people not followed Oregon the last 9 years? We score anywhere from 40-60 points while giving up 17-31, therefore giving up points, but not more then our offense. We out score teams.

In 2016

Virginia scored fewer points against the Richmond Spiders.
Virginia had 292 yards against the Richmond Spiders. Virginia had 388 yards against Oregon.
Virginia's Total Defense is rated 125.

Stat wise, Virginia is a bad, bad team.

Oregon will be stepping up in class with Nebraska compared to an FCS team and a really, really bad Power 5 team.

You have zero basis to think Oregon is going to dominate Nebraska.

Like I said earlier, bet the over in the total points scored and bet the over in total penalties in the game.

 

[Olyduck]

the game is going to be close imo Oregon has played some weak teams but so has Nebraska. Fresno and Wyoming were 5-19 combined last season. hardly teams to hang your hat on.
Oregon's offense is still running a top 10 offense in yards and top 15 in scoring.
the defense is looking similar to last year but so far is avg less points and yards than it did last year.
the rush is getting better sitting in the top 10 for sacks and the front 7 was an area of concern. getting sacks is nice but the other side they are giving up runs.

Oh Jesus, stop acting like Nebraska has played world beaters. You beat Fresno State and Wyoming......At least Oregon has a P5 team as one of their wins.

I agree its hard to make comparisons until competition levels rise. If comparing Oregon and Nebraska next week will be as pure of a gauge as you can get.

Also compare by just looking at the overall team.

Nebraska beat up Fresno and took them 4 quarters and Wyoming to shoot themselves in the foot to finally finish off Wyoming.

I don't see one player on Nebraska's offense that concerns me, absolutely zero threats.

Oregon on the other hand has a threat in every key position on offense.

It's amazing how much the two of you are able to post with the other's dick in your mouth. I feel like it'd be hard to fit two keyboards in there somewhere.

Don't be upset bro.

 

[oaknightshockey1]

Don't be upset bro.

Not upset. Like I said, it's amazing.

 

[OregonDucks]

Not upset. Like I said, it's amazing.

Thanks.

Amazing is what a Royce Freeman run looks like.

OR Prukup converting on a 3rd and 36.

Or fans extreme jealousy over the Ducks.

Jealous of their 0 natties?

I haven't watched any Nebraska games this year. So I cant make a comparison as far as personel. From the two Oregon games I have watched. I can say Freeman is a constant home run threat. Prukop is showing improvement he did have a learning curve with the offense. And the wide receivers have a lot of skill and speed. Nelson,Carrington and Stanford are all dangerous. Its really nice to see Pharaoh Brown playing again.That was a nasty injury and he worked extremely hard to get back on the field. And Devon Allen was extremely explosive. But he isn't just speed he's also a playmaker. The offensive line seemed to settle when the tempo was up. When the offense was moving at a higher speed it appeared to take pressure off of them. The defense could use a little work. But I have to give Hoke credit. At times he had them pumped up. And they did come through when it mattered. If they can hold their own the Ducks do have a very good team

Do you not give credit to BIG teams like Wisconsin,Michigan,Ohio State? I respect the Ducks and give credit where credit is due. Ive done the same with several teams. Including Wisconsin I state what I see on the field.

Young defense only getting more experienced and better with each practice and game under Hoke.

Offense is finally gelling and there were glimpses of that tempO last night which is great and should make any opponent fearful with respect.

I watched the Nebraska vs Wyoming game yesterday to scout them. Nebraska was in a battle till around late 3rd quarter where they were gifted with Wyoming mistakes and short fields. That 52-17 score does not indicate how close that game really was.

GO DUCKS!

Here is the difference.

Oregon looked OK beating up their punching bags.

This is Nebraska with their punching bags...

Punching bag looks hollow, just as you'd expect a Fresno State or Wyoming punching bag to look like.
