Oregon’s football season thus far has been anything but consistent, there’s no arguing that point. Ups and downs. Wins and losses. Swag and frustration.
But if there was one thing that could be considered the most consistent within an overall inconsistent storyline this fall it’s the improvement, and overall attitude adjustment of the unit which has the past couple years become a platform for scrutiny.
I’m referring, of course, to Oregon’s defense.
Last season, it could be argued there was but one effort by the squad then led by Brady Hoke that could be deemed properly productive, and that came in a dramatic 30-28 victory over a Utah team that was, at the time, ranked #11 in the country.
