I voted Wisconsin wins a close one, but in reality, I think it's too close to call. But until the Ducks win a BCS game (yeah, I know 2002 or whatever), I'll have to go with the default option....

I've thought Wisconsin's defense has looked suspect all year, so there's that....

As of now I'm thinking Oregon.

The reality is that I dont think either team is capable of stopping the other consistently so we are left picking the team we think is least likely to turn the ball over a few times so i went with Wisconsin but this is the game I am most looking forward to watching for sure.

I'm not sure where people get this idea. Prior to the defensive debacle that was last week, we were ranked #2 in pass defense, we were in the top five in fewest PPG allowed, and were in the top ten in fewest yards allowed. Outside of a really fucking stupid gameplan last week, our defense has been really good. It's the special teams that have been terrible.

I should add that if we have our slowest linebacker covering Oregon's fastest receiver (which is what happened for 75% of the MSU game), it will be a disaster. That wouldn't be because our defense has been suspect all year and they are talentless. It would be be because our defensive coordinators were absolutely stupid the last two games.

I hear ya but your only as good as your last game. And Wisky left us with a less than stellar defensive performance. It's all about perception.

Wisconsin pulls away in the second half and wins this (a lot like the Rose Bowl two years ago).
