Oregon is one of the hottest teams in the country, the hottest in the Midwest region according to the trendline stats. The offense continues to climb, and their defense is back to early season form. Believe it or not, Oregon is very similar to last year’s Florida team:

  • Make it to conference play undefeated? Check.
  • Lose first conference game against a top-50 opponent? Check.
  • 3 game losing streak late in conference play? Check.
  • Finish in a three-way tie for third? Check.
  • Win conference tournament? Check
  • Best 4-game stretch (ratings-wise) comes in last 4 pre-NCAA-tourney games? Check.
  • Get #3 seed in tournament? Check.
  • Get to play close to home in first 2 rounds? Check.
  • Draw a pod with a popular 11-over-6 upset pick? Check.
  • Top-20 offense? Check.
  • Top-20 defense? NOOOOOOOOO.

Only a top-50 defense. Sorry Ducks fans.

Miami’s offense has undergone consistent improvemen throughout the year, and 10 out of their last 12 games have been above average. Their defense had been getting worse at the same rate, making me wonder if the changes were actually do to errors in the possession data, but recently the D has slightly improved. This is a team trending in the right direction and peaking at the right time. Unfortunately for them, they’re up against one of the hottest teams in the field in Oregon.
