“I do think this Mike Locksley-led offense, with him calling the shots, I think this is a total backdoor situation. Oregon is playing a bit close to the vest, they don’t want to get more guys hurt, we saw the Tez Johnson injury last week and the good news is he will be back. I think they just want a very business-like approach.”
