Since Chip Kelly arrived at Oregon, one thing was consistent, at least in my memory. The better the offense performed, the better our defense looked. The pressure the offensive points put on the other team makes them more one dimensional, helping the defense much. In losses last year, they came because the offense sputtered with VA injury. The offense needs to ignite, and use tempo, speed, and points so the defense plays against one dimensional offenses. Of course WSU is mostly one dimensional so they could throw this whole post into the garbage can.
