Alex, great article as usual. Managing expectations this early in the season with a team that still has so many questions surrounding it isn’t something we’ve had to worry about for awhile. I just have to remember to breathe, and that we are just watching, while these young men are actually living this in real time. What a time to be a duck.

The depth at defensive back has been astonishing. They are all so fast, and hit hard whether they are veteran or a freshman. I actually think we have a touch faster reaction in the secondary this year, with more sure tackles in the first two games. If there is an injury--I feel much better about the backup coming in....since he is playing as much as the starter! Aaron Flowers, RS Freshman Safety

According to ESPN's Pete Thamel, Northwestern running back Cam Porter is being ruled out for the season after suffering an injury in last week's game against Western Illinois. Porter was the team's leading rusher through two games, carrying the ball 18 times for 137 yards and a touchdown. Northwestern Wildcats suffer major injury ahead of Oregon Ducks gam

Know the Foe: Five Northwestern Wildcat players to know The fourth-ranked Ducks will travel to the midwest to play Northwestern on Saturday at 9 AM. Here are five Wildcat players to know entering the game.

Don't bother. Remember the ad campaign for Oldsmobile "This isn't your father's Oldsmobile". Well, we are the "fathers" of these Ducks and these aren't our last century Ducks, so we earned the right to wallow in Hubris.

I lost all sympathy for them once they decided to steal 300 million from the departing 10 members... Phil did not join us until we went to the Rose Bowl and then the Cotton Bowl. We had to EARN his trust, as winners want to work with winners. Beavis has not earned it, has declined, and is worth much less now.

I'd have to imagine that every DC this year will ask the analyst about the scouting report for Oregon, then the analyst will take a really, really deep breath...."So...

Thomas likely he as a better command of the offense at this point that puts him higher in the pecking order than Smith, and they didn't get that far down the depth chart for Smith to play. Dan Lanning has made comments to the effect that we can play winning football with Thomas. He's more than serviceable.

Yes, I have noticed that we are gang tackling a lot more, which is a sign of great defense. Keep it up, OBD!

The bigger surprise to me is how Akili Smith Jr hasn't played yet. What's up with that?

How Lanning, Stein and Lupoi built a juggernaut in EugeneMonday morning at CBS, college football writer Matt Zenitz named the coordinators of the week in each conference. In the Big Ten, he chose Will Stein of the Oregon Ducks, and Tosh Lupoi of the Oregon Ducks. So far Stein and Lupoi have gotten maximum value out of having their highly-paid units train against each other. Josh Yourish of Saturday Blitz noted that against Oklahoma State, "The Ducks jumped out to a 41-3 halftime lead, with 472 total yards, averaging 13.37 yards per play and 14.38 yards per dropback." That's insane domination.

Thanks for the link... Yeah this would have been helpful for writing the article. Jayden Limar had the MOST snaps of all runningbacks at 23! Makhi Hughes second at 15. Limar didn't have has many carries as Hughes (9) but he was in on more plays. It shows how much this staff thinks of Limar and his development that he is in the game as much as he is. He made some fantastic blocks. On the plays where there were 2 backs lined up along side Moore, Limar was always one of them and he never got the ball on those plays but he was a blocker for the runner. Incredible development and I am thrilled for Limar. Biggest surprise of the year so far I think. And anyone who says they saw this for Limar (that isn't on the team or a coach) is outright lying!

Mailbag: Could the early schedule hold Oregon back?

There's a third option... Reveal to Mess with Opponents. Oregon put some stuff on tape that now opponents have to use some of their limited time to practice against. Oregon put Sadiq in the wild-cast (or maybe QB, it kinda looked like he had the option to throw it). Now teams have to prep for that scinario. Oregon did a 2 point look... now teams have to prep for that, even if it failed against Ok State. All those runningbacks... opponents have to prepare for.

What happened to Oklahoma State? The Cowboys were Ducked. ESPN.comWhat happened to Oklahoma State? Is USF the team to watch...From South Florida to Oklahoma State, we take a look at key takeaways and performances from Week 2.

I am trying to temper my feelings after watching the first two games, but i think it is obvious that now that the players are all CDL products, and the culture he had built in UGA is now in full swing in Eugene. The players all seem to be giving everything and more that CDL is asking for. There was no let off until CDL said to. Its subtle, it probably doesn't look much different to most non-OBD fans, but its there. Coupled with being so close last year, this years motivation is easy to come by. It gives me chills watching how prepared, how in tune, and just how hard the players are playing for each other. Having been a fan and gone to games since the early-mid Eighties...its something to see.

If Dante goes Pro and Stein gets a head coaching position, does he take Novosad with him? In that case, we may be back to a transfer QB for 2026.
