This is hard to make rational but I'd sure like to see the Ducks whip up on Michigan State and then go all to hell during conference.

Not irrational at all.  Who says Michigan State would stack up that well in the Pac12?  Well, not counting those people.  Then, after whooping them, O gets overconfident, suffers key injuries, still hasn't decided on their QB, one of whom (turns out the better one) quits to join Snoop Dog's kid in doing their own thing, Helfrich blows his stack and three other starters leave to start a Boy Band, and the Ducks, in desperation, bring in Neuheisel (whatever) as head coach, Stanford surges, McCaffrey wins the Voldemort, we win the Natty, Shaw leaves to replace Belicheck (whatever) and Muir transfers Dawkins from HC BBALL to HC FOOTBALL.  And replaces Dawkins with Madsen. Cardboard breaks out in long discussions of coffee, water policy and the Civil War. Just a typical year.
