Oregon Offense Should Roll

Quarterback Dakota Prukop has been instrumental since the Spring in continuing the Tempo Game. It took some time last week, but by the end of the game the team found their Offensive Tempo.  The scary thing..Prukop things the team can move even faster. Pharoah Brown added some insight earlier this week following Practice.

Oregon is looking for a snap every 18 seconds, which last year was among the top in the country. If they can go faster their time of possession would be microscopic. Oregon saw the ball for just over 22 minutes against UC Davis and put up 52 points and 522 yards of Offense in the win. Penalties are one thing that kills tempo and Oregon saw eight flags amounting to 81 yards, which should have been cleaned up in Practice this week.
