Oregon Ducks' 2-0 Record Masks Struggles: Can They Turn It Around?

Locked On Big 10 – Daily College Football & Basketball Podcast

What is wrong with the Oregon Ducks football team? To some, that may be a silly question because they are 2-0. But they were favored to win by big margins against Idaho and Boise State. They beat Idaho by ten points and needed a last second field goal to beat Boise State this weekend. It has been a strange start to the college football season for the Ducks. We will explore some of the Oregon football shortcomings. And with a ticked off Oregon State team facing them this weekend, can the Ducks afford to take anything for granted?

If not for Oregon we might be spending more time trying to explain why the Penn State football team is in the same boat as the Ducks. Penn State survived a home scare from Bowling Green in a game the Nittany Lions were heavily favored.

Vegas odds-makers notice the Indiana Hoosiers 77 point performance last Friday and IU is now a favorite vs UCLA in Saturday's Big Ten opener at the Rose Bowl.

Following the Iowa Hawkeyes disappointing loss to rival Iowa State for the Cy-Hawk Trophy, we begin to wonder if Northwestern transfer quarterback Brendon Sullivan might be warming up in the bullpen for Cade McNamara who only threw for 99 yards Saturday.

We have not one, but two observations from this week's AP Top 25 list for college football and we will share them here. And finally, we have Tuesday Tweets right here on Locked on Big 10 with Craig Shemon.
