Moseley 9/10 practice report: http://www.goducks.com/news/2017/9/10/f ... pt-10.aspx

Wyoming can't run the ball even against lowly competition. Expect several picks again by the Duck DBs.

Before the season started, while I was never really that worried that the Ducks might lose to Nebraska, THIS was the early-season game that concerned me. I'm still a little concerned due to the altitude (at an elevation of 7,220 feet above sea level, War Memorial Stadium is the highest Division 1 [meaning FBS AND FCS] stadium in college football). But based on what the Ducks have done so far and what the Cowboys have done so far (3-24 loss at Iowa, 27-0 home win over FCS Gardner-Webb), this would be a pretty disappointing loss.

Current line is Ducks -13

Will be there hooting and hollering.

I've been wondering why they would practice with sore bodies the day after a game rather than recover. One idea just dawned on me - practice on Sunday means getting to bed at a reasonable time on Saturday. Those who have followed for years probably know that players have a tendency to go out and do some stupid things nights after games when they can wake up late the next day. By having practice, you hinder that. Anyway, just a thought.

I doubt it stops them but I'm sure they have that thought in the back of their minds. They are young adults after all...I mean, I know it wouldn't stop me.

Nothing is foolproof besides handcuffing them to the Hatfield Dowlin complex.

Working out while fatigued, done correctly, is a great way to build muscular endurance.

Before the season started I predicted a loss for this game, since then I'm changing it to a win and also predicting Oregon will go 8-4 rather than 7-5, but still really scared about this game. I know they're running offense is really bad, but that passing offense scares me. Hopefully Springs and Graham step up and the front 7 put Josh Allen on his back a lot. GO DUCKS!

They pulled a redshirt on a True Freshman RB last week, he runs hard and with anger. Bigger kid at 6'3" 210, have a feeling we'll see more of him this week and he's an Oregon kid so will most likely have a chip on his shoulder.

Will he be opening the holes himself?

I've only watched Wyoming play Iowa but based off of that game, Nebraska had a much more potent offense than Wyoming does. Wyoming has a better QB but the surrounding pieces on Nebraska are vastly superior. What concerns me more is the Wyoming defense. They are the number 3 defense against the pass and really appear to play very sound football. I think Oregon fans are going to be frustrated with our offense again after this game.

He can run with all the anger he wants, he'll still be the least talented back we see all year.
