    I think our defense will do better against a similar offense than Zona will. Our guys have been running this tempo for years. Zona just started doing it. If anything, I think it will favor us. We have some fast, talented guys.

    I think AZ will lead at halftime but we will wear down their defense and win in the second half.

    To compete with the Ducks a team needs quality depth...from what I understand Zona doesn't have much.

    The Ducks will hang 60 on 'Zona if the Wildcats can generate some points in the first half and allow the Duck starters to actually play in the second half.

    I can't wait to see the full offense unleashed and actually play a full game. Arizona's first string has played two complete games (Toledo and Okie State), and their starters played well into the third quarter of their cupcake game.

    I like our defense, and as long as we play with our heads on straight, I think we'll hold them to three TDs.

    AZ - 21
    UO - 55

    I wanted to say only 14 points, but I think they'll get one or two TDs in the second half.

    I'm thinking along those sorts of utter domination/blowout lines... I'll go w/a TD less & give Zona a FG for 56-17 as Oregon takes their foot off the gas in the 4th. Oregon's deep D goes against a faster/better spread attack every day in practice and I expect the Ducks to easily have their way on offense.

    Zona is a much better competition than the other three cakewalk opponents that the ducks faced.

    You realize Tennessee was supposed to come to Autzen this season and backed out right?
