you have a defense, no doubt.Here's where this helps Oregon. Now they will hand off every single down. They can probably beat half the teams in the Pac with that gameplan.
Also, what happened to Travis Waller or whatever that black QB's name was?
I said this to a buddy today. This might have been the best thing that could happen to the Ducks. They have the best line in the conference by quite a stretch now that I've seen everyone play someone with a pulse. This is the first time we haven't had a sure fire NFL tight end since pre-Vince Ferry, but the three guys we have are probably the best blocking group we have ever had at that position.
Burmeister will he the QB going forward and can actually run the zone read. If you can run and play D you can beat anyone on your schedule.
Having the best kicker in school history will be a huge factor down the stretch as well.
When did you get a defense?
When you weren't looking.
it's just not very good.
Cal sucks, they might hang in on defense for a half, but their offense is going to get plungered at UW this weekend
I would argue that the defense went from complete trash to average. The Oregon offense is good enough to win 7 games with their schedule with an average defense. Last year's team would have lost this game 45-24, so I'll give the first year coach at least some credit. But no, this defense isn't great or even close to great.
It reminds me so far of the transition from Holt to Wilcox. It got a lot better but was still just OK. Could supremes bad teams but good teams or teams with good offenses could run up some high numbers.
Now Wilcoxs defense never really improved after that initial jump, so Leavitt does get some more time to make it better. I would bet that it will get better but who knows how much. The talent will be there so we will LIPO.
