This would be a great time for the Ducks to beat the Broncos

Wouldn't touch that line with a ten foot pole.

…..I would never actually bet against the ducks but if I were to this would be the game IMO.

I'm with nogero. All bets are off just because of the Boise curse.

I am pretty certain with how we fared against Idaho, we will come in crushing Boise. But money stays in the pocket this weekend.

I'm counting on the old "a team improves the most in a season between week one and week two" here. Pretty sure our coaching staff has the team's attention and will correct some s*** this week. We're definitely going to have to open up the playbook and get the run game going a little better for sure. Yes, I was in Autzen when Boise came in and beat us. Of course we were without a qb For most of the game. After the cheap shot on Masoli and the end of the Chris Harper experiment, Darron Thomas did come in and almost saved us after he went out on the field and demanded Chip put him in the game! Still remember LaGarrett Blount hurdling a BSU defender on the way to a score. Happened right in front of me.

I'm not counting on oregon to crush anyone right now, especially a BSU team that shows up against top competition, and has had our number in the past.

Going opposite these earlier posts. Boise gave up what, 485yds the other day? They will see how Idaho kept the top of the D on lockdown, but I don’t see this again. Stein will make adjustments. Ducks will cover. Defense is too good, and will be better as well.

I've never bet on sports, never plan to, but I'd pick the Ducks to easily cover this spread. This coaching staff understands that optics matter. Ducks won't be completely vanilla in this one.

I'm taking the under because I like Oregon's defense and don't feel great about Oregon's offense.

IF I was to bet on this, I would take the under as well. People who jumped on the under for original line (ducks by 25 i think it was???) might make $$$.

I saw part of the BSU game Saturday and although I wasn't very impressed with their defense or QB, they have 2 outstanding RBs. If the Ducks can score, AND if they can slow the run and get pressure on their QB, I think they'll win. I'm still nervous, though.
