What I think would lead to a win:
1) Limit Adams’ ability to extend plays with his feet. This is going to require better discipline in man coverage down-field from the DBs than we’ve seen so far this season. I would imagine Paul will be spying Adams for most of the game. I would love to see Hatfield make some big plays to make Adams think twice about throwing his way.
2) Disrupt Oregon’s tempo by mixing up the coverage in the secondary. I would think we see some hybrid coverages including some 6 Db sets that combine zone and man swaps based on formation/routes. Let’s not forget that Adams is still used to playing against FCS secondaries. He’ll make some bad reads if we mix up the coverage.
3) O-line needs to get a push and open some holes. Booker has been wearing defenses down almost by himself. It’s fun watching him bash opponents, but he needs to be bashing at the second level to get to the third instead of breaking tackles at the line of scrimmage.
4) Own the clock. I personally don’t like ball control offense, but I would much rather have long sustained drives rather than score quickly against Oregon. Oregon would love a shootout. They are built for shootouts. Keep the Oregon offense off the field with ball control and they will have a hard time building the rhythm that yields 21 point outbursts which they thrive off.
