While a 31-point lead should be incredibly safe, the Oregon Ducks know something about losing an advantage of that size.

Oregon offensive lineman Tyler Johnstone took to Twitter to warn the Panthers about the dangers of being ahead exactly that many points.

In the Alamo Bowl against TCU on Jan. 2, the Ducks took a 31-0 lead into halftime. However, without starting QB Vernon Adams, the Ducks came out flat and the Horned Frogs turned on the jets. In the end, TCU beat Oregon 47-41 in triple overtime.

The message here is clear for the Panthers: Don't pull an Oregon.
