The team has plenty of speed...need some beefier linemen yet still athletic on the O and D-lines. It was a big stage for Darron Thomas (OU QB) and he made some early miscues that kept OU off of the board. They play an exciting brand of football. If you heard Urban Meyer on tv, he said he was impressed with seeing OU the first time play live because Chip Kelly calls plays to give his team chances to win.
Defensively they kept the Ducks in the game. Their performance on the biggest stage probably puts them over the edge in locking up more of the coveted recruits considering the PAC-12.
Yeah, they’ve really expanded into a semi-national recruiting power. Oregon shows up on alot of lists in Midwest and Texas, like LaMichael James.
