I was looking at this one too. Could be a let-down after a huge game and win vs. MSU. Plus, Oregon's D has shown they can be scored on.
They could win this by 60 if they want, I'm sure. How long will the starters stay in if it gets out of hand early though? I'm sure they don't want to take too many chances with MariOta in with a 40+ lead since his injury last year really hurt them.
Just my thoughts, as I had this one listed on my leans too.

I wouldn't lay the 44, not because of Oregon's defense (which isn't actually that bad), but because there is going to be an entire half of garbage time.
It could be like 49-3 at halftime and end up with a 59-24 final.
Plus the whole letdown thing is real coming off the high of the second half vs MSU and now playing a lousy Wyoming team.

I'm on Wyoming +44 for 3 units. Yes, Oregon could cover this if they really wanted, but I don't think they do here. Oregon coming off a big win vs. a top 10 opponent. Non conf sandwich game before opening PAC 12 play at WSU on 9/20. The first half of the MSU showed the blueprint for what it takes to challenge Oregon, force Mariotta and this receiving corp to beat you. Make stopping the run priority #1. Wyoming HC Bohl had this same mindset last week in holding the Air Force option attack to 2.9 ypc (151 yards on 52 attempts) and will 'try' to do the same thing this week (they are getting 44, it's all relative). Another thing to love about coach Bohl and Wyoming here is the pace of play he prefers. He will try to lower the total number of plays in this game. And if you're Oregon, you don't mind this. Much like I was against FSU last week for the same reason. These powerhouse teams have little to gain in games like this when a BCS computer is not spitting out #s. If they win by 31-35 vs. winning by 56, the selection committee doesn't hold it against them. Survive and advance, remain injury free, work on a few new wrinkles and good execution and they will not be ultra concerned about margin of victory. They could still cover, but I doubt they're on a mission to just destroy this opponent. Not to mention actual game matchups. Some holes in the armor of that Oregon D. Pesky Wyoming with several starters (7 O, 9 D) back will play hard.

That's my 2 cents. BOL everyone.

I like the right up.. Do they match up is my only question. Oregon is the type of team that will go 4 2 pt conversions and before u know it the score is 24 - 0 after the 1st quarter. Then 48 - 0 at halftime..
