Ducks Wire Roundtable: Predictions, opinions for Oregon vs. Texas Tech

Did Texas Tech’s loss in Week 1 matter? Who has a bigger game, Bucky or Troy? We give our predictions and opinions here.

Last weekend was great because it gave us live Oregon Ducks football after an eight-month hiatus. This weekend is going to be great because it will give us our first competitive football game for the Oregon Ducks since December 2022.

With all due respect to the Portland State Vikings, the Ducks’ season starts this week with a game against the Texas Tech Red Raiders in Lubbock. It’s going to be hot. It’s going to be loud, and it likely is going to be a really good game.

While Week 1 gave us an opportunity to see numerous new players on Oregon’s roster for the first time this year, we didn’t exactly get to learn a whole lot about the team in general.

To help preview all of the action, Ducks Wire writers Zachary Neel, Don Smalley and Miles Dwyer made predictions and offered opinions on what we might see.

Here is your second regular-season Ducks Wire roundtable of the 2023 season. Enjoy.
