Unleashing the Quack Attack: How the Ducks Plan to Silence the Trojans’ Roar
The Oregon Ducks still have a very good chance to make the College Football Playoffs. For the season, the Ducks are 9-1, with their only loss coming at home against Indiana. I’d be a bit surprised to see them make some noise regardless of if they make it into the bracket or not. They have a good offense, and they have been able to rack up points on both the ground and through the air, but I’m not sold that this team is all that special on offense. Their defense has been very good, holding every opponent except Indiana to 24 points or fewer. In most cases, it is under 16 points. Their two games where they allowed more than 20 points, one game against Penn State that they won on the road in double-overtime 30-24. The other was against Indiana when they allowed 30 points at home and lost 30-20. Even if Indiana loses, I think because of the tie-breaker, Indiana would still get a chance to play Ohio State for the Big 10 Championship, so in the grand scheme of things, this game only means something for staying in the College Playoff picture.
