If the Ducks are to have a shot at defeating Indiana, their defensive line is going to have to throw Fernando Mendoza off his spot more often. In the first game, Oregon's pass rush wasn't bad; Pro Football Focus credits Duck defensive linemen with 11 of the team's 16 total pressures. 16 pressures isn't bad at all, but Mendoza was only sacked once, by A'Mauri Washington on a devastating bull rush.
#Oregon iDL A’Mauri Washington (#52) has an unmatched blend of strength and power.
Able to push the OL here into the QB for a sack.
