Oregon gets to face a red-hot WSU team with possibly a true FR QB and numerous other backups in beefed up roles.

It's at home at least....?! I was contemplating going to this one but with Herbert out and 5 safeties and 2 MLB I think Wazzu is gonna pick us apart sadly.

Going to be a difficult one, WSU is going to put up a ton of yards and with Herbert and Royce likely out, a lot of pressure on the O to try to keep up. Hopefully WSU struggles coming off an emotional victory over USC.

Wsu"s one weakness is Falk will not throw the ball away and he takes sacks so if the D-line plays well maybe we have a chance

This will be a fun game to watch since there is absolutely no pressure. This will be some retro Oregon football, trying to pull off the big upset in Autzen when nobody expects them to win. The crowd needs to be a factor. Time to remind the Cougs of what they really are....born losers.

With all the injuries that just hit Oregon this one will not even be close. I thought with it being at Autzen that Oregon would at least be competitive and might have a chance. Without our two top offensive players and maybe a 3rd if Nelson doesn't play this will be a cake walk for Wazzu.

Ehh...I'm on more of the positive side. Wazzu hasn't beaten really anybody. Yeah, I said it. SC and Darnold have been overrated, as usual. And Wazzu hasn't played a road game. With my rose colored glasses (and an improving defense), me thinks the Ducks have a good shot at a W. UO scored almost their season average on what most people thought was a very good Cal defense, even with all of the injuries.

Ease up negaduck. A solid running game and defense can keep a team in any game. We will have to become Alabama and grind and pressure. Our D gives us a punchers chance. WAZZU is not unbeatable.

Not saying we will win but remember, cal almost beat USC, WSU barely beat USC, we just handled CAL fairly easily with our back ups back ups. Again not saying we will win be we may be able to exploit some weaknesses and make it close

You all forget that we also have at least a solid defense now. Very interested in Leavitt's gameplan.

It took a miracle for WAZZU to beat a crappy BSU team too.
