Oregon has shown us they are the Number 1 Offense in NCAAF.They also showed us they dont care about defense and theyll gamble on almost every 4th an inches.Oregon has a faster RB then anyone in the league.Also there high flying QB and WR.Now the real question is will Alabama be able to score enough to keep up?My answer is simple NO!The Fast paced Offense will overwhelm the big bulky guys of alabama.Alabama has already showed us there a slow team not capable of putting up incredible numbers on offense.Dont get me wrong they can score 40 but can they score 50-60 i dont belive so.

They won't have to keep up...
The zone read won't be as effective as your used too...
24-20 type of game...Comment -
no way your on crack if you think only 20s a side With oregons weak Defense i see alabama putting up 30s and oregon keeping pace Alabama Corners are suspect they have been shown to be weak on the long ballComment -
Oregon will score, because that's what they do, but they won't be able to do it near as easily.
Everyone acts like Alabama is a done deal. If LSU can almost beat Alabama, then UF or UGA can too.Comment -
Texas A@M is the #1 offense in CFB they just play against real defensesComment -
if UGA scores first and aaron murray settles down, they just might win that gameComment -
yeldon and lacey running backs too strong for oregon. bama will run on them and tire out the defense and then bama will have options to passComment -
NopeComment -
Oregon can't score like they do against Bama imo.Comment -
well hopefully Oregon wins out and Pass Kansas st if kansas st gos to the BCS that will be a fukin total fuk up on BCS part.Kansas st schedule is soft as a cupcakeComment -
Didn't we ask the same questions prior to Oregon playing Auburn a couple of years ago?Comment -
-
If they play, I see Bama 31-27 kind of game.Comment -
No fukkin way Oregon can hang with Bama
Bama D by far the best Oregon will have played all year
Bama D will shut down that pussy finesse offense
Barner or Thomas dont last the whole game. One gets knocked the fukk out
Oregon scores somewhere around 21
The bigger factor is Oregon D will get fukkin shredded
No chance they can stop Yeldon and Co.
Bama 42-24Comment -
Yes.Comment -
could stanford maybe beat oregon so we don't have to worry about this anyway?Comment -
should be able to tell after this weekend when bama plays a&m, who run the samew type of offense as oregon. if bama can't stop a&m they will not have to worry about oregon so discussion will be over.Comment -
Oregon can beat Auburn...fail
Oklahoma can beat Florida...fail
West Virginia can beat LSU...fail
Ohio State can beat FLorida....fail
LSU can beat Alabama fail....
Ok State can beat an SEC defense but couldnt beat Iowa State....yep
Here we go again
Scrap the plus one next year...just give two trophies to the SEC winner in Atlanta and a "thanks for trying" pat on the back bronze statue to the #3 team.
As far as this year goes, LSU had the best shot this weekend....they played their best game so far and Bama played its sloppiest...IN DEATH VALLEY at night and still won. Case closed.Comment -
If Oregon was to play Alabama right now they would have a better chance of winning. After having so much time off before the NC game that offense loses it timing and momentum. The SEC is a line of scrimmage beast and are not bothered as much by the time off. I know Oregon will practice hard and try to stay sharp if this hypo matchup happens, but you really can't imitate game speed and sure as hell can't imitate the actual size and speed a team like Alabama plays with.Comment -
Everyone has brought up some great examples, so i will throw one in the mix also...
Remember the Georgia / Hawaii Sugar Bowl a few years back.....when the SEC team was going to get blown out by the quick, rbs and wrs of Hawaii? That game should have taught the public at the minimum two things....(especially when ole Colt was being picked up by his team mates with snot bubbles coming out of his nose.)
1. Those small but quick RBs get so crushed and battered after the second possession, they lose a step after halftime. SEC teams Defensive linemen and line backers start DAY 1 after they are drafted into the NFL for a reason. They are just as quick as all the other defensive players in the NCAA.....but bigger. SEC Defensive players are not fat asses. Quite the opposite. By the THIRD quarter, Oregon would start losing integrity of both lines.
2. Alabama's line backers run as fast as some of the safeties/Db's Oregon has played..lol seriously. Oregon want have a deep ball due to the QB pressure. LSUs QB had a perfect night and was throwing the ball quickly.
Alabama just played MISS State and then traveled to LSU at night. 95,000 fans. It is in the top 5 of worst places to play as a visiting team. It is Loud and hostile. It is also a rivalry game. The fact that Alabama had a rare off night and still won, on the road tells me everything I need to know. Nick Sabin with weeks off to prepare for the title game , would absolutely Roll Oregon. I see Oregon giving up a minimum of 3 turnovers. Turnovers and defense wins this game easily. Defense wins championships. Oregon has none.Owner/Cool Works CupComment -
In November, no chance in hell. In January - yes.Comment -
No way in Hell will Oregon hang with Bama, Sorry.. Defense wins games... Look at how Auburn played LSU this year, 12-10 Auburn should have one that and they are 2-7, but could not finish the game. LSU played its best its played all year. I think Kansas State would give Bama a better game then Oregon would.. Just sayin... NC stays in the SEC once again..Comment -
People are crazy Alabama is or maybe was the most complete team before sat night. UGA gets exposed every year they're kinda like OK. We forget it's college fball played by a bunch of 18 year olds. It's a very emotional game! Personally I think there is one good team in the SEC the rest we think are great because they're in the SEC. The 2nd best team is the newbie A&M. LSU went all out and they lost even though they were in the lead you just had this thought in the back of your head that Bama would pull it out. Oregon wins in a close game. Chip Kelly is the best coach in CFB.Comment -
Just a footnote for those non-Bama homers here..the second half of the LSU game our top receiver (Amari Cooper) was out with the ankle injury and our heavy RB Lacy was also injured. Tough to produce with the 2 starting players out but still had freshmen step up and get the WIN.Comment -
Alabama has head coach Saban, Oregon doesn't.
Saban has never, as in ever, as a head coach had a opponent score 50 points on his defense.
Saban, as a head coach, has no flaws. Is flawless.
CBTN has a statistical detailed database devoted just to NCAAF head coaches.
Very detailed.
From 2001 to present, Saban is the only head coach to have five across the board full stars.
Stoops, Myers, Beamer, and Brown come close, but that's it.Comment -
Auburn had half the Defense of Bama and shut down Oregon for 75 yards rushing/2.3 ypc and 19 points
LSU 95/3.4 ypc 27 points
Oregon has a far worse passing game than the last 2 years. Bama would face fuk Oregon, but that won't even be the title gameComment
