I think OSU is going to handle Oregon.
If home advantage is 3 points, then they more or less consider this one a toss up.
Washington currently has the 51st rushing defense in the nation. A far cry from OSU.
I wouldn't be surprised to see both of them in the CFF Playoffs Final 4I think OSU is going to handle Oregon.
Hard to evaluate Washington, because Michigan is a mess right now.
That said, the most disappointing thing to me is the Iowa secondary. Schulte was never any good, X was either vastly overrated out of high school or is afraid of contact, Castro is having issues, so Harris is really the only one playing decent right now.
Could be awhile until a new staff is brought in to begin the rebuild.
Gotta go with the Hawks in this one. 17-14 Iowawashington-Hawks is a toss up game. huskies with a nice win over mich, but this much team is a far cry from last year's squad.
I THINK the Ducks phuque the Bucks (again) this time in Eugene. (Last week I predicted they would “rik-roll” Brutus)…After watching (Brutus) yesterday, I have changed my mind…..They (the Ducks) won’t “rik-roll’ Brutus, but they will win the game. tOSU is the better team but not next Saturday. That Oregon Stadium is the noisiest stadium one can play in. Very underrated as a “home venue” (AUTZEN STADIUM) but B10 exposure will change that shortly.I think OSU is going to handle Oregon.

Not so sure about the 2 TD difference but I think OSU wins by 7 as I'm not so sure Oregon can make all of that gimmicky BS work against a very talented and fast OSU defense. Should be a heck of a game but would not be surprised with an Oregon win. Both will be in the PlayoffsI think OSU wins by two TD.
That's about what I think the Ducks walk away with…..BUT I readily admit I have been wrong before……just a “gut” feeling about this one.I think OSU wins by two TD.
Ohio State looks like the most complete college team, with good depth, this year. The game being played in Oregon will certainly work to the Ducks advantage, but I still see a fairly comfortable O$U victory.I THINK the Ducks phuque the Bucks (again) this time in Eugene.

Oh, I’m thinking the Duck$ have the personnel to compete.Ohio State looks like the most complete college team, with good depth, this year. The game being played in Oregon will certainly work to the Ducks advantage, but I still see a fairly comfortable O$U victory.
They do and it should be a heck of a game. I see this as a one score game but just don't see the gimmicky Oregon stuff working against a very solid OSU defenseOh, I’m thinking the Duck$ have the personnel to compete.
As “fast” as tO$U is, the Duck$ might be faster…and we all know…..” speed kills!”They do and it should be a heck of a game. I see this as a one score game but just don't see the gimmicky Oregon stuff working against a very solid OSU defense
You should only be surprised if they aren't. Those 2 are a lock.I wouldn't be surprised to see both of them in the CFF Playoffs Final 4
Honestly, it's not that surprising. The other marquee games in the B1G are all being played out west, so those wouldn't qualify for Big Noon. The Iowa/Wash matchup is probably the best of what's left.Kinda interesting that Washington at IOWA is FOX's "Big Noon" kickoff game (11 a.m. CT)
stop thinkingOh, I’m thinking the Duck$ have the personnel to compete.
Johnson will run for 220 yards to make up for last week. Hawks by a million!I got a bad feeling about this.
People have been ragging on UW dropping off all season, and preseason leading in. These are not scrub athletes. They have the chops to come in and beat Iowa, perhaps handily.
I think our best hope is that they continue to beat themselves with dumb penalties, bad plays at key moments, and inability to kick a FG. If they tighten up on the discipline front, be wary.
It doesn't matter for 20 year old men. They hunt tail all day and night and never tire.
Their QB1 is very accurate. They’ve got a stable of good RBs and their WR appear solid. If QB1 struggles they won’t hesitate to put in their freshman QB who’s a dual threat.
What has killed WA are penalties. If they play a clean game, i think if they get more than 21 points they win
