A hidden weapon for the Oregon defense
At Oregon, the best defense really is a good offense, and this year Don Pellum’s defense will benefit from an under-appreciated asset:
An offensive line that can control the fourth quarter.
Oregon returns 108 starts on the offensive line, and they’ve all gotten bigger and stronger in the off season. They feature a three-year starter at center in Hroniss Grasu, two-year starters...
