They open the season at Boise State, a team that many consider having an outside shot at a BCS run. They then follow it up with home games vs Purdue and #19 Utah. While Purdue is certainly not the teams of old, they still have talent. As everyone saw last year, Utah does not roll over for anyone. Oregon could make or break their season before the Pac-10 schedule even begins. Keep an eye on Chip Kelly in his first year because the pressure is on for there to a smooth transition since Belotti's retirement.
