I actually think Boise State will also keep things vanilla. I think Boise State knows their goals, and beating Oregon are not a part of their goals. Week 2 Boise State plays Memphis and I think that’s a much bigger game for them as that one has legit playoff implications, so I expect Boise State to sort of approach this like a practice against an elite team to help them prepare for beating Memphis and going through Pac-12 play undefeated.

Same here. Boise State is going to keep things competitive but they just don't have the talent and scheme to beat Oregon unless Oregon is out there making mistakes and beating themselves.

Oregon goes with yellow/green/yellow to open the season, just like last year against Montana State.

Oregon will be without Iverson Hooks today (and reportedly Jalen Lott due to a broken hand) so we'll see just how deep the WR room is right away.
