In 2022 Oregon went 10-3 with a season opening blowout loss to #1 Georgia, a 1 score loss to #8 Udub and a 1 score loss @ Oregon State.
Offense--4th in the Pac in Total Offense (6th in FBS) & Scoring Offense in 2022
They return their top 2 QBs, top 4 rushers, their #1 & #3 WRs (and lost 2 4-star WRs and replaced them with 2 4-star WRs including Bama's Treshon Holden), top TE and 3 of their 5 staring OL. Expect them to remain at 4th in the Pac offenses or even go up
Defense--4th in the Pac in Total D and 5th in Scoring D in 2022
They lost a lot...3 of their top 4 & #9 tacklers to the NFL, their Nose. They return 6 starters on D and 8 of their 10 incoming transfers were 4 star recruits (ASU's Connor Soelle being 1 that was not) with proven resume's at the P5 level. .........not to mention their high level of prep recruiting for a long time. Perhaps a slight drop-off on D or remain just above mid-Pac
Special Teams--they return nearly the best place kicker in the Pac and lost a below average punter
Home Games--Portland State/Hawaii/Colorado/Wazzu/Cal/USC/Oregon State
Road Games--Texas Tech/Udub/Stanford/Utah/ASU
A repeat of 9-3 regular season looks likely and there is definitely an opportunity to improve on that playing USC at home (But Utah/Udub on the road)
