Pre-Game and Crappy Big Ten Morning Game Thread

I've had a request for a pregame thread, so here it is.  Talk about your predictions for the game, as well as any comments on whatever morning games are on today.

For the record, I've got Oregon by three touchdowns.  I just don't think Stanford's defense had the speed to keep up.

My personal prediction is a close game.

I kind of feel we will come out flat and have some unfortunate bounces that will get Stanford pumped early on. I’m not predicting a loss, but I don’t really think we win it running away. Here’s to me being wrong.

I don’t really see a reason for us to come out flat. One thing we’ve seen this year is that practice breeds success, and by all accounts practice went very well this week.

I actually agreed with Moseley, 35-17 sounds about right. But it could easily get to 40+ to 17.

I don’t think we’ll come out “flat,” but I do think we might come out and not execute to perfection. Also, I think Stanford is going to come out really hard.

I think it’s going to be huge for Masoli to avoid mistakes in the first quarter. Stanford will thrive on that momentum.

Overall, I see this going like the USC game – trade scores for most of the first half with Oregon putting some distance between them in the third quarter.

Ducks 52, Cardinal 3. Wait, that’s the Cal score.

I'm telling ya, it never fails - the SI cover jinx

I was cleaning up yesterday, and ran across the SI with the Ducks on the cover (“Rich, cool and 4-0”). Yeah, that worked out well. Sitting under that was the SI which covered the Ducks pre-Dixon injury, right after the SC win. While not on the cover, it was still a SI major story. Yeah, that worked out well. And while I don’t have it anymore, I remember the 2001 jinx, too.

Iowa was apparently on the cover. And Stanzi goes down. And NW is leading. And that touchdown was called back. You want to know whose juju is stronger, the SI jinx or the Iowa winning voodoo? I say SI ….. This is where the Iowa miracle ends.

All we have to do is get Boise on SI now.

We’ll agree to disagree. We can’t say for sure if they pick up the first after the timeout. I say the risk isn’t worth it because your defense is playing well. You say they be aggressive and damn the consequences.

If NW was playing bad defense, you might go, but they have been playing well since Iowa’s backup came into the game. I put it into the defense’s hands based on their play really since the 2nd quarter

Not really

We need Texas to lose basically if we win out. We’ll pass TCU and Boise with no problems, and Cincy will drop at least one.

by skywaker9 on Nov 7, 2009 12:03 PM PST up reply actions  

Well...

Cincy is one. Alabama or Florida is a second. Cincy would be a third. Texas a fourth. Will we pass TCU and Boise if we win out? Maybe. We should, but the polls will be important, because if we are behind them both in the polls, then even being ahead in the computers might not get us there… Heck, there’s certainly a chance that a one-loss Florida or Alabama could slip by the Ducks with the combination of those tricky computers and Southern voters.

Just would like to point out,

But how is the SEC the best conference top to bottom when after this week there is a high chance both divisions will be clinched?
