Blooblod 17 This isn't your father's Oregon Ducks teams. While there's still plenty of talent at the offensive skill positions, gone is the abundance of undersize guys who run 4.30s. Beefy lines of scrimmage on both sides of the ball is what will power the Ducks under Mario Cristobal. Yeah, beef isn't a word you normally associate with Oregon football. Somehow I've made it this far without mentioning Justin Herbert. Now I've mentioned him. On defense, Jim Leavitt has put together a surprisingly tough group with a potential superstar at each level. Jalen Jelks, one of the most underrated players in the country, headlines the d-line while Troy Dye leads the LB group. Look for OLB Justin Hollins to take a big step forward and help both the LBs and the DL cause havoc. In the secondary, "safety" Ugo Amadi will lead the way with CB Thomas Graham Jr. as a potential breakout candidate. My Ducks record prediction: 10-2. The schedule definitely helps the Ducks here, plus I have them getting the W in their hardest game of the season against Washington. I do foresee slip ups against Stanford and Utah though.

chrisb19 20 Oregon had a rough offseason with Willie Taggart decamping to the talent-rich fields of Florida State. This also marks their third new head coach in as many seasons. But they have an elite QB (if he stays healthy) and they managed to keep their defensive coordinator, Jim Leavitt, who made a giant leap forward in his first year. Will it be enough to challenge their rivals Washington for the Pac12 North? Unlikely. But they should put together an 8 win season with a lot of room to improve next year.
HUSKEROYAL 20 Taggart may have left after just one season, but there is a solid base of players on the team. The new coach Cristobal worked wonders at an FIU program that was an absolute disaster before he took over. I expect this program to be a darkhorse to win the Pac 12, as well as being a surprise team this season.

JeromesNiece 21 The Ducks with Justin Herbert had very strong potential last year. I don't see them beating Washington but they could be a very solid team.

woakley 23 Quack Quack. I think that Oregon will surprise some people this year. They kept a large portion of the coaching staff from last year and Justin Herbert returns. A weak OOC schedule for the Ducks should allow them to build some momentum before they run into their PAC-12 schedule
