MSU was more dominant physically in this one. The Spartan Dline was being held by the Oregon Oline on almost every play. These were two very good teams and a fun game to watch. If Adams can master throwing the long ball accurately he will be a very good QB. That left handed pass on the run was sick. MSU has to clean up their special teams play for sure.
These are definately 2 of the top ten teams in the country right now and i think they can both improve as well.

You are correct. Sparty is built around physicality, Oregon isn't. That doesn't mean they aren't physical it just means they are built to go fast and play wide open in space. Oregon was very physical at the point of attack while on defense, they did a pretty good job stopping the run for most of the game and even had some tackles for loss, but that offensive line of Michigan state is outstanding in their pass blocking. Cook had a great pocket every drop back. The game was still decided by one key factor which I mentioned in my write up and I hit it right on the head.... Scott frost is not a good OC for Oregon. He has completely handcuffed the Oregon offense with his scheme and has zero clue on how to get playmakers in space and then how to get the ball to those playmakers.
VA is not mariota, he's more like a manziel. He is a passer first who scrambles to throw and buy time. Mariota was a legitimate run threat to take off and go 80 yards, BIG difference. Oregon has gone away from the read option and is now way to vanilla with Scott frost calling the shots once again. If I didn't know any better I would think Scott frost went into east lansing and tried to play big 10 football with a pac 12 offense...???am I right?? How many times are you going to run the same formation and call simple up the gut run out of the shotgun?? It's pointless and beyond conprehensible. He doesn't know what he's doing at Oregon and he's causing more harm than good
I watched the ESPN story on Adams' transfer from E. Washington. To be honest, never heard of the guy, but he's got game, and I liked what I heard coming out of his mouth. Still, big game like that, had to get me some at the low number. I think they'll raise Cain in the Pac ......what is it now, 16, LOL.

Hey now ... How did the best team in American end up in this thread �� it's ok, the haters will hate as I say, say what pleases one's self but just as they marched up and down the field on Bama and swept the stadium floor in Dallas with that Oregon team they will steam roll any team unfortunate enough to get them in the playoffs����
Bowl projections: Looking ahead after Week 2: Tennessee projected to play in Belk Bowl
Congrats on your Vols getting invited to the Belk Bowl. :missingte
i agree buddy.. not sure if you saw my other comment in this thread after the oregon game. Very impressed with the Ducks in that loss.. easily could have been a W if the one ball is thrown well. If they run the table they are 1 of 4. I know many were worried about losing MM but to be honest after I watched that game I thought this to me says more about the Oregon System then it does about the player.. If the kid stays healthy he will tear it up at QB and people will soon forget about MM.. GL rest of the year.
Not it trying to offend you, more or less just responding to Chris's comments which are hilarious..... I agree with red eye, Ohio state is the real deal and it's their title to lose in all honesty... After watching Oregon play Sparty, and almost beating them after a bunch of missed opportunities I can't see Ohio state losing to them..... They should walk thru the big 10 and ultimately beat Sparty quite easily. Both teams will continue to improve obviously butnohio state would likely throttle Sparty if they played tomorrow. I'm not saying Oregon is ready for the big time or better than x y and z.... Just saying that Michigan state has a lot of holes and it will take a perfect game from them and a bad game from Ohio state in order for them to beat the Buckeyes
