The Eugene local Comcast still shows the UC Irvine vs. ASU at 6:00 PM, yet when on ESPNU just now watching a bit of USC beating TCU 6-1...in both the footer running announcements, and the box that appears in the right corner showing scores and upcoming games...it has Oregon's game on ESPNU. We shall see...

Posted by Jon Joseph: Not So Fast! It looks like the SEC is ready to hand Tony Petitti a B1G in-your-face. The SEC, at the end of its spring meetings, made certain to let everyone know that the 8 regular-season games in the SEC Just Mean More. For the first time (RIGHT?) Greg Sankey found enlightenment. 6 SEC teams in the Committee's top 16 last season, including 3-loss Bama, Ole Miss, and South Carolina, would have made a 16-team PO field. Thank goodness someone brought this to Greg's attention. On the field, a 4-loss Michigan team with many starters sitting out defeated an all-hands-on-deck Bama team in its bowl game. Ditto for 3-loss Illinois taking out 3-loss South Carolina. Nothing to see here, move right along. S(ec)SDD. We're the best, we only need to play 8 regular-season games to prove it. The Committee? The Committee's spot-on rankings were negated by the field only having 12 teams. We need a 16-team PO! We trust the Committee will continue to recognize that our teams' 3 losses are superior to 2 losses everywhere else. We have paid attention to our friends in the ACC and the B12. Five conference champions and 11 at-large teams is the PO format we need; it's the Fairer Way, No Doubt! I never fell for the B1G/SEC detente. You could SEC this possible rope-a-dope coming from as far away as Minneapolis is from Destin, Florida, site of the SEC's annual beach retreat. The Michigan at Oklahoma Week 2 game will kick off at 7:30 EST on ABC. Disney does all it can to aid its SEC partner, while Fox is a B1G Mickey Mouse. However, Fox agreed to move the Texas/ Ohio State game to 7:30 Sunday night of Week 1 instead of Noon on Saturday. Texas vetoed the game time move. The Texas athletic director noted that it would give Texas a short week before its next game and that on Sunday, he goes to church. The Longhorns' Week 2 opponent? San Jose State. We'll see how this plays out, but I expect the SEC will stay at 8 regular season games, and that a possible B1G vs. SEC football challenge was just part of the S(ec)ucker Punch. This could be B1G. Greg Sankey reacts to report Big Ten wants to press SEC to expand to 9-game conference schedule - On3 WWW.ON3.COM SEC commissioner Greg Sankey addressed a report that the Big Ten wants the SEC to move to a nine-game conference slate. The B1G, supposedly, would consider a PO format of 5-11, the 5 highest ranked conference champs are in the field and seeded as ranked with 11 at-large teams, IF the SEC agrees to play nine regular season games. This makes sense. 8 regular-season games allow SEC teams to schedule their way out of a loss. Not every team in the SEC does this. Florida plays Miami and FSU OOC in 2025. In 2024, UGA played Clemson and Georgia Tech. LSU opens the season on the road at Clemson. The other OOC games are in Baton Rouge against LA Tech, Southeast Louisiana, and Western Kentucky. The W KY game will be played on the penultimate Saturday of the regular season, when B1G teams will be playing a conference opponent. Playing Purdue is more difficult than playing W KY. Especially if West Coast teams have to travel to Purdue. In addition to nine regular-season games, the majority of B1G teams play a P4 opponent OOC. However, Ohio State played 3 G5 opponents OOC last season, and Michigan did the same in 2023. In 2025, Penn State has three cupcakes scheduled OOC, including FCS Villanova. (And then takes a week off before OBD comes to town ) (The B1G is not terribly concerned about the ACC playing eight regular-season games. ) The six SEC teams that finished in the committee's top 16 in 2024, Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, Alabama, Ole Miss, and South Carolina, could have had one additional conference game loss. And in theory, No. 8 Indiana could have played Valpariso instead of Ohio State to finish 11-1. Not ranked in the top 16, Illinois, could have avoided a trip to Eugene with a game against Eastern Illinois, and be in the playoff with a record of 10-2. It will be interesting to see how the future PO format unfolds.

There's no surprise here. The SEC dropping its rationale for the 8 games, "We're too good" isn't happening. A short week for Texas? Heavens No!

There is confusion on where to watch tonight's Baseball Regional Playoff game. Originally, the schedule on GoDucks.com stated that the game was on ESPN+, but then yesterday morning it changed to TV on ESPNU. Problem is, my TV listing locally for Comcast/Xfinity shows UC Irvine vs. Arizona State at that time, and as of this morning on Friday--it continues to show that. Meanwhile, GoDucks.com continues to show ESPNU, and I emailed the Sports Information Director for Oregon Baseball about the issue, and he says that what is on the schedule at GoDucks.com, (ESPNU) is correct. When I go to the schedule for ESPN+...it shows the Oregon game to stream at 6:00 PM! When I go to the online schedule of ESPNU at their website....at 6:00 PM it states...."TBA" of which is pretty damn strange for the day-of a Playoff game. So there IS a chance of our game on ESPNU at 6:00 PM, and I guess we will find out tonight.

I agree. The announcers were Bruin Blue all game, and when the analyst said she thought, "that unfortunately the call would be reversed" in Oregon's favor, I could only shake my head. But, and Sinicki said so herself that she was lucky she scored, she was out by a mile.
-
If I'm honest I think that's the deserved result, there is no way that the second Oregon run should have been scored, I don't care if that's the way the rule is laid out, in no way should that be obstruction. The rule should be changed, it basically encourages teams to make boneheaded running decisions since it's just natural to put your foot on the corner of the plate. It's one thing to put your foot there not allow a runner to slide into home when you are still in the process of making the catch, it's another when the ball beats the runner by a mile. I know this all came out of the Buster Posey injury, but it's gotten ridiculous at this point. I'm not blaming the officials, I'm blaming the way the rule is spelled out.

Good News for Our Forum Attendees on the Penn State Game!
spartan2785 replied to Jon Joseph's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Fox is the absolute worst, worst studio group, worst visuals, worst times, worst play by play, I actually like Klatt...he's been very good I think, I don't always agree with him, but I think he's very reasonable, and I don't think he really has an agenda. Everything else is horrible. NBC is probably the best of the options, CBS is still in its SEC mode where they would rather be talking about Bama and the greatness of everything in the south. I'll be honest I still wish we could watch our biggest games on ABC and get Herbie on the broadcast or Tessitore or others, Noah Eagle though is good. -

In Other Broadcast News, the Michigan at Oklahoma game in Week 2 kicks off at 7:30 Eastern on ABC. Michigan’s road tilt vs Oklahoma just got harder with night game scheduled WWW.MAIZENBREW.COM Michigan at Oklahoma is officially a night game. How much harder will that make things for the Wolverines? Disney, ABC, and ESPN do everything possible to give the SEC an edge. Fortunately, Fox wasn't able to derail the OBD/PSU White Out.
