WIth Conference play starting this week there is a cautious optimism surrounding the Hatfield-Dowlin Complex. What was not seen over the first part of the week was Wide Receiver Charles Nelson, who went down with a sprained ankle last week against Wyoming. If he is unable to go, expect Taj Griffin to fill the roster spot this week.
Much focus has been on what has been an improved Oregon Football Defense, which will have their hands full this week. Head Coach Willie Taggart is ready to get into Pac-12 play against Arizona State, “It’ll be the first time we’ve had a really good mobile quarterback to go up against, defending him in the run game and pass game will be a challenge for us.
