A month ago on the Oregonian Sports podcast, both hosts predicted that Oregon would beat Ohio State at Autzen Stadium on Oct. 12.

Also discussed on this week’s episode:

• How concerned should the Ducks be about Dillon Gabriel’s red zone struggles?

• Outside of the rankings, what contributes to the “bigness” of Saturday’s matchup in Eugene?

• Why it feels so hard to know how to judge the 4-1 Oregon State Beavers

• The injury bug has already hit the Blazers a week into training camp
