Entering the week vs UCLA, the Bruins came in with the better Defense and the Ducks Offensive scoring efficiency which was ranked in the top ten to start the season slipped to 111th against the teams they have faced this season.
While the Oregon Offense looked better against UCLA they were still predictable. The team put together a good gameplan, but it seemed pretty vanilla compared to what Oregon Football has shown in season’s past. With an opportunity ahead of them in Utah and the Utes without their Starting Quarterback Tyler Huntley. Hundley broke his collarbone against Arizona State and is out the rest of the season. Oregon should be able to take Offensive advantage again this week.
Oregon Football heads to Utah on Saturday. Kickoff is set for 2:30 pm Pacific Time. The game wil be broadcast on the Pac-12 Networks.
