WhiteBaseCoat 17 Speaking of a very good combination of talent and experience, I quite like the look of Oregon right now. I think their defense is going to be much improved this year - it's one of the most experienced units in the country - but it's year one for Willie Taggart, who posted USF's worst record in school history in year 1 at that school, beating the record set the year before. Oregon went 4-8 last year. There are some concerns.

corundum9 22 Willie Taggart has this team on the right track. They will no doubt move the ball on Nebraska, but how much their defense has improved will determine the ultimate success of this season.

Bill3ffinMurray 23 As a Nebraska alum and fan, I must admit that Oregon dropping 77 points and 703 yards of offense against Southern Utah, coupled with Nebraska's defensive performance against Arkansas State has me worried for next week's contest. However, I'm ranking Oregon #23 to hopefully recreate the good vibes of last seasons matchup which saw an unranked Nebraska upset then #23 Oregon.

stripes361 25 There are several teams that could have been in this spot. Northwestern struggled against an underrated Nevada team but should be strong this season. Maryland defeated last week's #24 team, Texas, while Cal-Berkeley beat last week's #25 team, UNC. Both those teams were too far off my radar to convince me with one good win but are on the bubble now. UCLA had their miracle comeback against Texas A&M but did it with Aggies QB Nick Starkel sidelined. Even A&M could have been #25 this week had Starkel not been injured. I considered Georgia Tech and West Virginia as well after their strong performances against Tennessee and Virginia Tech. However, in the absence of real certainty about any of these teams, I am going to give a nod to the Ducks, who are currently FPI darlings. Oregon will certainly have to beat Nebraska to retain their spot next week, and probably by a good margin.
