A statement was made last night. It made sure, and it silenced all who wondered if, we could handle tough teams like Stanford. All that ended last night as Oregon made an amazing come back to win the game and become a real playoff contender. Oregon attacked on defense, holding MSU to only 3 points in the second half. I don't know what Mark Helfrich said in the locker room during half time, but whatever he said must have been awe-inspiring. Oregon jumped up in the polls to the number 2 rank, ahead of Alabama. MSU was pushed back to number 13.
Oregon still does have big tests vs UCLA, Stanford, and Arizona, but I'm sure that the team will go into those games with a little more confidence, now that they beat a tougher and more physical team. Oregon plays Wyoming next weekend at 11 AM, so get up early for that game.
This is what the top 5 looks like after week 2.
1. Florida State
2. Oregon
3. Alabama
4. Oklahoma
5. Auburn
- Go Ducks!
