Oregon is going to rise some this week from an already high ranking in run defense (I think)
I like what I have seen with this year's version and think they'd be even better in overall D had they not faced a couple of QB's who threw some GREAT long passes. I'm not sure some of those could have been defended short of pass interference.
My interest is in discussing whether they are that good or maybe haven't faced any strong running teams, yet, and will they meet a real challenge before post season matchups.
