Lack of pass rush makes our defensive backs look even worse.

It is a very bad sign on the road that we completely dominated the half but are only up 7 and kicking off after half.
We’re up 7 on the road at the half. Oregon had one good drive where they got lucky.
Because at this point they have all the momentum and they're going to get the ball first and could potentially score and tie the game
It’s tough because we had two golden opportunities to get off the field and couldn’t do it
It’s going to have to be the defense that steps up and starts getting pressure or causing turnovers.
We need to blitz more as our DB’s can’t keep up with the Oregon receivers. We also need to mix up the play calling on second down. We ran on almost every second down in the first half.
The D has given up 1 touchdown that required 3 amazing throws. I don't think Oregon will be able to do that every drive.
A 2 yard run that turned into 35 by horrendous tackling.
