Oregon Football: For Every Wildcat Weakness, Oregon Defense Excels

After allowing 30+ points to Washington and—more alarmingly—Washington State, a lot of the “Gang Green 2.0” talk around the Oregon defense mellowed out. But DC Andy Avalos brought all that hype right back after his Ducks defense dominated down in Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum two weeks ago.

The Ducks allowed 10 quick points in the first quarter to USC, and—after a few chants of “over-rated” from the Trojan-“faithful”—they only allowed 7 more legitimate* points the rest of the way.

*The rest of Clay Helton’s 2019-20 season should be considered garbage time after the Ducks eviscerated whatever was left of his job security.
