OREGON! 31 – 9 2 3 285 🦆

Weather 100% rain low 40's wind 7-10 mph Brrrrr Ducks win 24-17 1 1 176

Penn St just tied it up

I think DL will hold Dakorian out if he really is dinged up but can go. It’s going to be trench warfare due to the weather so he might be comfortable with McClellan taking his reps. I don’t know who would replace Harkey. My guess is Wilson.

DUCKS 27-14 1 TO 4 Sacks 276 passing yards

This I a game we must win! If we can not beat Iowa, I find it unlikely we beat SC or Wash by enough to erase the stink. Hope Dak and Harkey are not hurt, but if so, we 'd still better win or we probably do not deserve being in playoff. Go Ducks!!!! Either we are real or we are not, not our fault the schedule is weak or Penn St quit, but the hand we are dealt. Beat Iowa in the miserable weather and our schedule looks a bit better and we might survive a rd loss to WA.

I live on the east coast in South Carolina. All week on local and national radio all I’ve heard is callers and hosts bashing the Ducks. I do not understand, other than the light schedule strength, why Lanning and this team get so little acclaim. Because of it I hope our Ducks overwhelm and dominate the Hawkeyes today, even adding style points. Go Ducks. Smash Iowa.

Today, Bye the Way - 11 Texas, 12 Oklahoma, 13 Utah, 21 Michigan, 24 Pitt, 25 Tennessee - This should be a very short siege - No. 6 Ole Miss, even if old enough to have danced The Charleston, will conquer a Citadel, teleporting from Charleston to Oxford. Unless the Rebels come this close to Cougin' It at home again? Come On Bullseye! WOOF!

I watched the Indiana vs. Iowa game highlights this morning. Iowa's front 7 is fast and gets really skinny to get between the offensive linemen. We absolutely shouldn't be be handing the ball off to an RB on 3rd or 4th and short. I'm not feeling very good about our chances to put up points on offense unless Moore can get in a rhythm and pick apart their secondary to open up the box.

Northwestern played a pretty close game for the first half. I was a hoping. The Ducks made their bed losing to Indiana at home so whatever the other teams do is what they do.

USC 38 - No-Western 17. Trojan fans may be Riled up, but I don't believe in BC, Riley, or USC. 🤬

Tulane flew into Memphis and did not land with Grace. 38 to 32 in the Tiger's face. The Dukes of JMU loved this Green Wave BBQ, and a chance to light up an old Cig.

The Game today is, of course, in Iowa City. The weather? Cool and spitty.

Well, that could be good news. And clearly, I'm not investing enough time keeping up with OBD. I have to work on my game.

It will be football weather day in Iowa City... a long and miserable football weather day. About 38° with the wind chill, and about 100% rain forecasted during the entire game. On the upside, wind will be fairly light. Iowa is good. This should be a relatively low scoring game... something in the low 20s or upper teens. I'm predicting a rather ugly grind of a game. He who has the fewer turnovers today, wins. Field position will be paramount.

Reece Davis just alluded to Dak’s injury on CGD. This report has legs. I’m expecting the Harkey injury to be true as well.

Short addition: It is real though, but it's part of East coast - West Coast stuff about life in general. The east coast doesn't get the west coast and frankly the west coast does get the east coast and that's why they moved to the west coast. Hope you understand what I'm saying. Ad in that when the east coast thinks of the west coast 99% of the time they are thinking LA, ugh! The PNW is virtually non-existent.

The Oregon injury report comes out at 10:30 (two hours before the game). No need to get too worked up until then as the rumors will fly in all directions until then. I expect a mix of truth and fiction in the rumor mill but who knows.

Here's the deal with me. I graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) and I'm a VCU basketball fan. I also lived in Portland for several years, wish I had never left. As one of my Portland friends told me when we moved back east, "You'll be back, you're not one of them anymore." He was joking but there's also some truth in there. I am a strange critter in that I actually root for both of the Oregon power conference schools, I don't say that too loudly on this forum. I am sick over what has happened to the PAC and how OSU has born the brunt of that. Gradually I trended more toward the Duck, because I love how they do things without a box, not outside of the box but the box simply doesn't exist. So, I'm a Ducks fan for the past twenty or so years and will be the rest of my life. Here's my point. I'm also a VCU basketball fan and we don't have a football team, so I can be all in on the Ducks. When we VCU basketball fans talk football, we can't talk VCU football, so we talk about other teams and how we are fans of other teams. As far as I can tell of the several hundred fans on the RamNation forum, I'm the only Oregon Duck fan, but for those who follow college football with some knowledge of the game the Ducks are pretty well known and respected. It's the casual fan that formed their opinions decades ago and will never change them that really don't get what is going on in Eugene, Oregon right now. The ducks are a national power now, and they are here to stay. In a year or two Indiana will lose a coach, they will go back to being Indiana... 'nough said. But Oregon has gone through coaches and continued to improve, to innovate and build a solid program and a very solid athletic department overall. I believe Dan Lanning is here for a while, but if he left, we'd make another good hire and the program would continue to be a national power. We know something about that at VCU, where we go through bright young coaches and launch them on their careers elsewhere regularly, but we keep winning a lot of basketball games. We've come to believe it's as much VCU as it is the brought young coaches. Oregon is the same. Yes, the bright young coaches are great, but IT"S OREGON! Finally Oregon is at least on the verge of being a destination job. Why not? You can coach at a national power and live in Eugene. Who would want more?

Oregon Ducks On SIConfusion Surrounds Oregon Receiver Dakorien Moore’s StatusOregon Ducks receiver Dakorien Moore has quickly proven why he was one of the most sought-after recruits in the country. The former five-star freshman has emerg SI.com just reported that the DAK injury posting was taken down, so who knows. Nothing more yet on Harkey.

Down field early, punish them for loading the box. Use Moore's mobility, move the pocket, roll out, half roll out, use the threat of him running without him necessarily looking to run. Save the cutesy stuff for the fourth quarter if everything else is not working. Too many of the cutesy plays have turned into wasted downs early in the game. We don't need wasted downs. A fast start would be wonderful, I'd love to see us up 14-0 after our first two possessions. Make them play from behind, change their game plan.

Ducks 28-17 1 3 260

Well, this is going around social media right now. Twitter is often times filled with a lot of fake BS. I can’t tell if it’s real because I don’t have a Scoop Duck account to confirm if Justin Hopkins really reported this. If true then it’s going to be a long day for the offense. It basically says that Dakorian Moore and Harkey are out and Sadiq and Davison are questionable. However, there is nothing on the injury report. I remember last season the news outlets jumped on the Jordan Burch injury fairly quickly. It’s addressed in this article as being rumors for now. We’ll see later on today.
