Could A Home Playoff Game Work Against Oregon?

Post by SuperDuck »

Someone else posted something similar and I thought I'd expand on it a bit.

The Ducks are obviously used to playing in the cold, wet conditions. That said, it does limit our passing offense.

We run the ball very well either way, but not being able to open up the playbook could be the difference between winning and losing against some teams.

I understand that this completely depends on who we'd play. I wouldn't really like a road trip to South Bend, IN this time of year either.

Thoughts?

I'm just not sure which team coming into Autzen in December is going to make me think we're the underdog.

It's hard to say? We might be underdogs vs Notre Dame, but could be favored against a team like Alabama because they're a pass heavy team. That would be assuming it rained.

Of course, I always want the Ducks to play at Autzen whenever they can. The crowd factor is huge.

That said, I worry that poor weather might limit our passing offense, that's all.
