I agree. If not now, maybe never. I'm pretty sure Mariota is going to declare for the draft, and the next in line has a lot of shoe to fill. Hope they can pull it off!!!!!I think this may be their year. Hope they can pull it out and win the national championship.
I agree about the lines not matching up..........BUT........ I think we can beat them with speed and athleticism. I don't think Alabama is fast enough to contain Mariota. If Freeman or Tyner can get to the outside, it's all over. We're too fast.......BUT.......if its a smash-mouth type of game, we lose. Every time.A national championship will Never happen as long as Oregon has to play the likes of Alabama! They're lines will not match up against those types of teams.
The same thing was said before they played LSU in the season opener a couple years ago. These smash mouth type teams, like Alabama this year, have athletes too.I agree about the lines not matching up..........BUT........ I think we can beat them with speed and athleticism.

I hope they all win out too....Will be interesting and fun to watch. Win or lose, I just want a shot at Alabama!!!!I hope the top four all win out. Alabama and Oregon will beat TCU and Florida State. Then Alabama and Oregon can play for the national championship. Bet there won't be any more "We Want Bama" chants after that night!
Oh believe me, I'm not trying to take anything away from Alabama, or any of the other top 5 teams. They are all great programs and deserve to be where they are. Their records and rankings speak for themselves. I'm just trying to build up my Ducks and convince myself that we can play a better game than they can. I hope we get the chance to find out!!!!The same thing was said before they played LSU in the season opener a couple years ago.

Alabama won't be getting past Ohio st
