    Oregon @ Cal -5 -- any thoughts?

    ..well, other than it probably will be one of the games of the day to watch.
    Anyone have any thoughts? I havn't seen Cal at all this year and Oregon only once.

    Cal will win this game by 3-14 points. That is all I know. Cal has been amazing @ Home it will take an amazing effort from the Ducks to even have a chance to win.

    I'd take Cal -5 on a neutral field. Since opening day, Cal has been as good as anyone. Oregon's run defense is a joke, and Cal has as good a duo of backs as anyone. Lynch and Forsett combine for 300 yards, and Cal wins about 41-28.

    The Ducks will win and challenge USC for the PAC10 title.

    I like Cal here as well. Im glad I didnt hit them when the early lines were posted at Pinnacle on Sunday. They were -7.5. Its good to see it down where it is now.

    USC is going to have a tough stretch coming up, when they play Oregon and then California in consecutive weeks. That should test the Trojans.

    Ive been impressed by Oregon thus far ,although they beat OU thanks to a bad call, they still are a damn good team with high octane in there tank. That said I think Cal wins here the stage is set with Cals back to control scrimage and slow the ducks down a quack or two. Cal 31 Oregon 27

    Even with the new clock rule I'm going "over" 60 in this game.

    if Oregon somehow got to +7, +7.5 before kickoff, I'd think about a play...probably won't see that number though...

    You should of jumped on that +7.5 when it opened up early on Sunday, at Pinnacle. I dont think you will see it that high again. Maybe drop somemore by gametime, thats what Im looking for.

    IMO, Cal is the best team in the Pac-10 BY FAR. I wouldn't want any part of Oregon +14 here. This is going to be ugly.

    I agree with you. I think they will take out USC this year.

    Oregon may even take USC out too, giving the Trojans two losses in a row.

    how can oregon be getting 5 points----cal has beaten nobody! they did beat arizona state(at home)..but, oregon crushed arizona state at arizona state!!!cal beat minny(not very good), portland state and oregon state......arizona state is one dimensional, minny, oregon state are no dimensional and portland state, well, i just dont know!!!!!! oregons offense is dynamic and although their d isnt that good, i dont think cal can score with oregon....longshore isnt the model of consistency, either!!!

    ive made a pretty big play on Cal.....didnt think i would ever say that after their lemon of a game at the VOLS......but they are def. one of the hottest teams in College right now.



    FYI people, if you like Cal take em at skybook.....their free half point comes in handy here....-4.5 and i know that is not a power number, but ill take the half point anyday. The line seems real strong at 5 across the boards.



    gl fellas,

    Good call, Mr. NBA. It looks like Cal has bailed me out of a sub-par day.
