[QUOTE="COJacket, post: 84912, member: 67"] My wish is that [B][I]we do not do[/I][/B] what Oregon did last night: "And despite another elite performance by current Heisman trophy favorite Marcus Mariota, voters have shown that singlehanded excellence does not beat out a loss these days. After a 26-point loss to Arizona last season, Oregon didn't need a lot of motivation for this game. [I][B]But what it did need and continues to lack is a healthy offensive line.[/B][/I] Oregon remains without three expected offensive line starters who are injured, and it continues to show with a proliferation of sacks of Mariota and difficulty in the interior running game. [I][B]Arizona was able to get pressure all game[/B][/I] and sack Mariota five times while rushing only three players, a scheme that allowed the Wildcats to play with three linebackers and five defensive backs the entire game. Couple that with an undisclosed injury Oregon's coaches said Mariota suffered against Washington State that led them to limit their QB run calls, and [B][I]Oregon's offense was limited in key ways.[/I][/B] "[B][I]Anytime you can pressure the passer with a three-man rush, you can defend a lot of other things[/I][/B]," said Oregon coach Mark Helfrich. "You can change up the coverage and you can limit the ability to throw downfield, and that's what they did for the majority of the night." Oregon also needed its top defensive tackle, Arik Armstead, who went to the locker room with a bare left foot during the second quarter and did not return. [I][B]Armstead's absence wasn't the only reason for Arizona's third-quarter offensive outburst, but it played a role[/B].[/I] He was wearing a walking boot on this lower left leg after the game." So, we stay healthy on the OL and DL, we are able to bring some pressure with 4 on the DL, and our offense is not limited in key ways, and we will be just fine, because our JeT will bring another elite performance. OBTW - this shows even the best of the best can have their problems when a few key individuals go down. [/QUOTE]
