"The reality is, find a top-10 team in college football right now that doesn't have great support," Lanning, who was Georgia's defensive coordinator before coming to Oregon, told ESPN on Thursday. "Do we have a lot more than everybody else? I think that'd be an exaggeration or we'd never lose. Everyone else right now is focused on our ice cream cone, and if I'm busy looking at theirs, that means mine's melting."

"I'm sure there's a correlation, right?" Lanning said. "Is our situation different than other teams in the nation? Absolutely. Is our team's situation different than the premier teams in the nation? Probably not. And that's OK. We want to be in that [group]."
