Oregon's defense currently ranks inside the top 10 nationally in statistics such as points allowed, yards allowed, and passing yards allowed per game. A huge part of that success has been due to the play of Isaac Slade-Matautia, who is third on the team with 22 total tackles. Slade-Matautia carries a large weight being the MLB for Oregon's defense, but so far he has stepped up to the plate in his second season of play.
