LOL, I give Erin Andrews credit for asking him tough questions. She didn't back down. Very douchey move to get angry in that situation though. Your homer clock operator let the clock go to zero and you gripe about it? I don't like Chip Kelly.

Because the game was so low scoring last year?

Neither team played defense last year. I thought Stanford would be better this year. I was wrong.

I think it was shoulder to helmet as he was going down.

There's a lot to like about Luck, but I'm not sure about his arm strength.

It seems like the ball takes awhile to get there when he really has to make a strong throw into a tight spot.

I like the athleticism, leadership, anticipation, timing and on and on, but the pure arm strength might keep him from being truly elite. Although Rich Gannon, who he closely resembles, had some MVP type years.

Am I the only one that thinks that Masoli(sp?) was not a good qb last year for Oregon? I think the guy they have this year is much more dynamic. I guess I am asking if Oregon is a better team this year than they were last year?

Yes and yes. Oregon is a much better team than last year.

Oregon will roll through a truly "defenseless" Pac-10. I don't think the new QB is better than Masoli. If he's forced to throw against a good defense, it will be ugly.

The new QB looks exactly the same as Masoli did last year. It is impossible to know if he is better then Masoli until we see them against a real defense. The thing is, we might not get to see them against a real defense until their bowl game.

Agreed. Sooner or later they will come across a defense that is able to slow them down

I just don't understand how Oregon jumps ahead of Boise St. Oregon's offense is incredible, but the defense is not even average. IMO, Oregon is not the 3rd best team in the country, but my opinion doesn't count for shit.
