The opening game performance for the Oregon Ducks Football team was for lack of a better word solid. There were kinks early, but the Offense was able to work it out. The Defense did well, thanks in part to Freshman Phenom Troy Dye who was everywhere. He leads the Pac-12 after one game in Tackles for loss and also had 11 tackles, 7 for loss, a sack and a blocked field goal.

Entering Week 2, what we know about Virginia is well, unknown. Head Coach Bronco Mendenhall has one game under his belt, a loss to Richmond. He has a Defensive mind having Oregon Coaches look at his former team at BYU for some insight as to what he may unveil on Saturday night in Prime time.

Let’s take a look at where I’ll be focusing my attention on Saturday.
