This is a write-up from a capper on another site from Oregon that lives for Oregon Sports. I posted some of his stuff on here last year he is a very solid capper. I thought some of you would like the read
BOL to All Tonight!!!!
Thought about breaking this into sections - did so much prep that I didn't wanna leave anything out, and I truly pared it down as much as possible: Time's a wastin' w/short Wk; Really trying to snap this off:
OREGON STATE BEAVERS AT OREGON DUCKS
D-Coordinators' preperation MOST critical to Thu outcome
ORE DC, ALLOTTI devised adequate schemes to disrupt #2 Cnf OrSt Offense?
ORE ST DC, BANKER effective schemes to slow #3 Cnf Ore Offense?
THE DEF THAT CAN, ABOVE ALL ELSE:
GET 2 to 3 STOPS PER HALF, or optimally
GET AT LEAST ONE 3-&-OUT/HF
FORCE OPP TO PUNT <2x HF, in own ter
WIN T-Ov Margin (09: Ore +5 | Ore St +4)
Captain Obvious tells us: Tm that can accomplish most amt of these Def Goals will KEEP Offense ON Field
ORE & ORE ST DEF'S:
Far Different concerns from Opp Offenses:
OREGON STATE DEFENSE VS OREGON OFFENSE:
CAN ORE ST DEF slow dynamic dual-threat Masolli-led Ore "shell-game" Spread Offense?
For all the talk about Ore's stellar 09 Def, ORE ST DEF boomeranged from poor 1st Hf Yr & has rapid climb to Upper Conf Def Status:
#1 PAC-10, ORE ST RUSH DEF: 98 ypg
Ore St L-5 Gms 3rd in NCAA, only Tex & Fla better
I truly believe ORE ST Def is largely under-estimated, ESP v ORE's PRIMARY OFF WEAPON, RUSH ATTACK
OREGON OFFENSE SLIPPING?
ORE Rush Off is still #1 in PAC-10, and #7 Nat'l (naturally), yet, ORE avg 50 YDS LESS than L-YR
08: 281TY/Gm
09: 231 RY/Gm
ORE SCORING is #1 PAC-10, yet Again, 4.3 PPG Less than L-Yr
08: 42.0 PPG
09: 37.7 PPG
OREGON DEFENSE v OREGON STATE OFFENSE:
CAN ORE DEF slow Canfield/Rodgers Brothers & Ore St Pro-Set Off?
Ore Def repeatedly branded 'EXCELLENT', yet Ore has alwd 500+ yds, 3 of l-5 Wks
BALANCE:
Oregon has had Def issues with:
TOP 25 OFF Tms -
THAT ARE 'BALANCED'
Stan & Ariz are Ideal examples
(Bal = 60/40 or more)
Yes, ORE Held Back a suddenly Rebuilding So Cal 'Balanced' Tm, But ORE Had ++ trouble w/SC before this yr
TO THIS END: ORE ST SUPERBLY BALANCED:
#1 PAC-10 PASSING OFF: 273/g
#2 PAC-10 RUSHER: Jaquwizz Rodgers - 119.4/yp
ORE ST OFF: UNDER RATED / EXCEEDINGLY EFFICIENT:
ORE ST #1 NCAA, RED-ZONE: 96%
48-50
37 TD (19 Rush / 18 Psg... is this Bal?)
11-12 FG, Red-Z
OREGON ST is #1 NCAA W/FEWEST FUMBLES LOST: 2
ORE ST #1 PAC-10 in all Following Categories:
PASSING: 273/ypg
PSS EFF (Canfield): 147.5/gm
FEWEST GIVEAWAYS: 0.723/gm
FIRST DOWNS: 22.09/Gm
3RD DOWN CONV: 48.4%
4TH DOWN CONV: 80% (8-10)
ORE ST QB, SEAN CANFIELD = EFFICIENT:
CANFIELD: ONLY SEASON-LONG, SR STARTING QB IN PAC-10
(ASU SR Sullivan has been Starting)
CANFIELD: HITTING 70.3% PASSES
CANFIELD: 19-6 TD/INT RATIO
ORE's Aliotti surprisingly 'Cavalier' w/OrSt Rec's;
"James Rodgers only Playmaker to TRULY worry about"
Hmm...MIGHT WANNA KEEP AN EYE ON:
Jaquwizz Rodgers PAC-10's #2 REC - OUT OF BACKFLD
(James Rodgers is #1)
In addition, ORE ST ADENIJI IS #7 REC IN PAC-10
Obviously, snap-statement...he clearly knows about rest
INCIDENTALLY, ORE ST RODGERS' BRO'S COLLECTIVELY LEAD PAC-10 IN ALL-PURPOSE YDS:
#1 JAMES
#2 JAQUWIZZ
OREGON STATE ROAD SUCCESS:
Autzen is Crazy atmosphere, to be certain. Easy to overlook fact that, although ORE only officially released 5k tix to Ore St AD, there will TRUTHFULLY be 8-12k Folks in ORANGE at the Landfill...err...Autzen (including this guy). Just as The 8-12k Hard-Core Oregon faithful 'find a way', and descend on Reser every other yr, (& this year in particular...Economy, December Gm, Xmas $ Needed, Cold Weather, ect) there are a great deal of fair-weathered, candy-ass fans (both schools / either yr), who're content to coerce several bills from a Die-Hard for tix, just to watch the gm on ESPN. I am honestly hearing it truly may be close to 20 | 80 THIS YEAR, when it's usually 10-90, 15-85.
ORE ST #1 PAC-10, ROAD SCORING MARGIN: +11.4
Riley-led Beavers superb in Pressure Gms / Rd Gms:
5x at Cal
4x at Ariz
4x at Wash
1x at Ore
SIGNIFICANCE OF BYE WK: RILEY/KELLY STAFFS & TMS "W/TIME"
I've talked about this exhaustively, yet cannot be understated, IMO
Moreover, the RILEY numbers exceed what I'd originally stated
Riley's Oregon St Tms, w/'Time' (Bye Wks, or <2-Wks Prep, incl Bowls):
Riley's Beavers
12-2 ATS (85.7%)
11-3 S-U (78.57%)
Kelly's Ducks Good Too:
4-1 ATS & S-U (80%)
REVENGE
Roles almost precisely reversed from 2008
Oregon w/Hm Gm Civil War Finale' for Rose Bowl-Clinching Birth
2008: Ore at Ore St
Beavers to Pasadena w/Win
As we all (some painfully) recall
Ducks blasted Beavers, 65-38
Ore nearly 700 YDS TTL OFF
Beavers were humiliated on their Hm Turf
As would expect, this Knaws at a bunch of Angry Beavers
65-38

Posted above Tunnel to Reser

Posted above Locker Rm Grease board
Oregon St spends 10 MIN every Practice on ORE
- 'What they do'
- 'What Beavers' Def Assignments must be on 12/3/09'
- 'How other tms have defeated &\or succeeded v Ore'
REST
Aside from practice efforts, many reasons to reduce the significance of "65-38", last yr's Civil War Drubbing from Capping standpoint
ORE ST had >1 less prep wk
ORE ST w/o PAC-10 Of P.O.Y., Jwz Rodgers (Inj)
ORE ST Decimated on Def Side of Ball
ORE RESTED (Bye Wk), Hlthy|Hot-as-Hell
MISC:
SACK DIFFERENTIAL:
ORE +18
ORE ST -12
ORE +30?
Isn't this HUGE issue w/all OrSt's 7-Stp Pss?
Esp at AUTZEN?
Yes & but not RECENTLY
Oregon St has miraculous 'about-face' in this area:
OrSt alwd ALARMING 4.5 Scks/G (UNLV, Az, Cin)
YET l-5 Gms, BEAVERS ALWD >1/G
Far Better Beaver Pass Protection:
* Has alwd Canfield & OrSt Solid Pocket
* Canfield has TORCHED 2-Deep Underbellies of ASU, Stan, UW, ect
Again, COULD this be a BIG Problem for Beavers?
YEP - this is the Primary Concern w/ORE ST
Yet the Trend is consistent & lasting (5+ Gms)
FLU RUMOR (Getting this over with):
Rumor (Probably Nothing)
Several Members of Ore Backfield contracted Flu
Emerged over T-Giv Break
Barner had ALREADY been confirmed publicly l-Wed
Treatment is in Full Effect...
Just FYI - Mum is Word from Ore Camp
'F.F.F.F' - FEW FINAL FUN-FACTS:
ORE #1 PAC-10: PERSONAL-FOUL PEN (26)
ORST #10 PAC-10: FEWEST P-FOUL PEN: (9)
Rivalries....P-F's?
ORE & ORE ST are BOTH 100% RED-Z, L-4 WKS
* JAQUWIZZ RODGERS
* JAMES RODGERS
* JEREMIAH MASOLLI
* SEAN CANFIELD
#1, #2, #3, and\or #4 IN VARIOUS 3-MAN COMBINATIONS
7 of 8 MAJOR TTL OFF INDIV. CATEGORIES
SPECIAL TMS:
Very Good For Both - ESP ORE
ORE #1 PAC-10 | ORE ST #3
ORE BARNER - #2 K-OFF RET YD
(1 TD - 100/yd v UCLA)
ORE ST JMS RODGERS - #2 PNT-RET (14.6/yd avg)
SIMILARITIES:
ORE & ORE ST, TTL OFF, Separated by TWO YDS per Gm
ORE ST 421
ORE 419
PENALTIES:
ORE 81 Penalties
ORE ST 80 Penalties
T-OVER MARGIN: Tms Separated by 1 T-OVER
ORE +5
ORST +4
LAST FEW POINTS w/OREGON:
Oregon returns home after exhilarating 44-41 OT WIN at Ariz
It was really Oregon's 1st Rd Win over Upper Division Tm
ORE HAS SCORED IN 40's L-5 GMS, AVG 42/GM
ORE is 9-1 S-U, LAST-10
Ducks are 7-2 ATS, but 1-2 ATS l-3
LAST FEW POINTS w/OREGON STATE:
Oregon State may not Win Thursday
Safe to say Ore St supremely aware of mistakes md L-Yr
Ore St is exceptionally prepared Football Tm.
Ore St's RUSH DEF is TRULY BULLDOZING TMS
ORE ST HAS ALWD 16 PPG avg, L-4
ORE ST is 6-1 ATS & S-U, LAST-7
Beavers have Covered L-3 Gms
PICKS
Could not wait to drop this in
SINCE WE HAVE THE LINE WE GLADLY WANTED ALL ALONG
* BEAVERS' <RUN DEF v DUCKS REDUCED RUN PRODUCT
* BEAVERS' W/TIME, at LEAST CANCELS OUT W/ORE
* BEAVERS' NEARLY PERFECT,w/GIVEAWAYS'
* BEAVERS' REVENGE
* BEAVERS' SR QB LEADERSHIP & 70.3 Compl %
* ORE SEC'DRY is DECENT, BUT SHORT-HANDED:
Oregon's "Beaver Killer", & 'The Man': Thurmmond, has been out for yr
After digging into every conceivable angle & aspect,
I believe Beavers get enough stops to have Offense on Field Repeatedly
Afrorementioned Beaver Offense Playing Efficiently, esp. on Rd
MOST IMPORTANTLY - ORE ST OFF is BALANCED
ORE ST really has every weapon in arsenal to Move ball vs Ore Def
Ducks given up +500 Yds to 60% of l-5 Opp
Ore St BETTER OFFENSIVELY than 2 of those 3
These Two Prolific Offenses destined to pour in 1 TD+/Q
HONESTLY, at Hm, Oregon will likely win...
NEVERTHELESS - AS Even as these tms TRULY are,
Sincerely believe we'll have ourselves good 'ol SHOOTOUT:
YET, Alas - an OREGON WIN
PREDICTED SCORE:
OREGON STATE BEAVERS 33
OREGON DUCKS 37
