Game Thread: MSU at Oregon

Yeah honestly I think it is the other way around. If Oregons TOP is higher it probably means they are not getting their quick strike TDS that just gas teams.

We'll see. I don't want to dismiss them just because of this game against a top notch offense and on the road. Definitely a tough early season match up.

I don't think I'm going out on a limb but MSU should have no problems running the B1G. Especially after yesterdays horrendous effort by the conference.

Not exactly true either. in Oregon's couple of highest TOP last season washington and UCLA they still routed them.

That line made no sense. I figured Vegas must know something I didn't!

I thought I was reading it wrong at first. In fact, I've had to go back a few times just to make sure it wasn't the beer goggles.

Yep yep mmmm hmmm

Good point. The Ducks have been down at the half many times ... before blowing out teams in the second half.

Correct

It won't happen tonight.

Ok Nostradamus. Wishful thinking?

lol didn't vegas have Oregon winning this by 14?

12 1/2 actually. 19 points is what the Ducks won by. Vegas gonna Vegas.

Oregon getting their feathers plucked

Are you ready for your 2 weeks avi?

Worst thing to happen to spartans was half time. It looked like no one told them that half was over and they didn't come out. One good quarter will not win you many games. But it wasn't the defense that let the Spartans down. The offense did them no favors. Couldn't stay on the field for anything. Oregon's offense didn't surprise me because they were as billed. The defense did, or maybe it was MSU's lack of offense who knows. Look forward to seeing you guys next year.

That's how it is playing the Ducks. It's never a matter of IF they will get rolling, it's when. The only question is whether the opponent can hang on once they start. They'll spend the whole first half looking like a bad high school JV team and then come out in the 2nd half and look like they could beat the best NFL teams.
