"Each team ranks among the top six in the Pac-12 in scoring and each among the bottom six in points allowed — so a shootout seems in order. Each also has proved to throw it pretty well, while only sporadically defending the pass. So lots of passes and passing yards also appear likely.

"“We need to do much better. We have to play much better. I can’t give you a number on it. There were still too many open looks that they got, they still had too many of those. They still were able to pull down 14 offensive boards. They only had four in the first half and pulled down ten in the second half. It’s just too many."
