BTW...wasn't he one of those who wanted it changed originally?

He has written this twice in the past week, that he ready to move back to Civil War, from Rivalry Game. He cited a history professor who acknowledged that side did, in fact fight the war to continue slavery, and the other side fought to end it....and won. He feels that 1) that is how it should be considered, and 2) Nobody actually thinks of the real Civil War when we refer to our football game. And ESPN GameDay is doing a short clip on the return of the Platypus Trophy, so watch out for that Saturday morning.

What I meant was....if they each have one tiebreaker, and the third one is a tie? First entry wins. Thanks for the heads-up, as I need to rewrite that and make it more clear.

DUCKS WIN! 48-10 2 Turnovers 4 sacks 289 yards Charles, if the first duplicate score now wins, there is no need for the tie breakers. GO DUCKS!

I don't want to play them ever again after tomorrow.... I want them to rot in the G5 begging for a check.

Hello My OBD FishDuck Forum Friends! What is your prediction of Oregon versus Beavis? Take your shot and let's have fun with it... Let's get these predictions started, and remember I look for the differential between your predicted points with both teams from the actual points. I will use the tiebreaker information when needed, so provide all the data below! Entries without ALL the information are invalid, and predictions on other threads don't count. We Have Two New Rules: If two winning scores are the same, and each wins one tiebreaker with a tie on the third tiebreaker? The first one who posted is the final tiebreaker to determine the winner. TerryM9 gets 42-6 locked in every time as his. (I love this guy!) Please follow directions, as I need all that is below for tiebreakers: --the winner --the score --the amount of turnovers Oregon creates --the number of sacks Oregon records on the opposing team --the number of passing yards by the Ducks. My prediction is: Oregon 48-13 2 3 251

Terrific question and comments. As noted above, PSU has consumed three cupcakes. In the process, the PSU D looks great, but the O has sputtered in all three games, including QB Drew Allar. The PSU defense has surrendered only two touchdowns, but the offense has scored only 14 touchdowns. Both teams played an FCS opponent. OBD has played two P4 opponents, one on the road. Oregon's stats in the pass and run game are superior to Penn State's, a team that has not played a P4 opponent or left home to play a game. Heading into Week 4, Dante Moore is 3rd in Total QBR with Drew Allar 69th. USA Today notes that Allar, along with Manning, Klubnik, and Nico, has not played up to preseason expectations. (Duh 🤮!) Meanwhile, PSU transfer QB Beau Pribula is lighting it up for Mizzou. Coming off a bye week at Penn State, James Franklin is 3-5 against teams with a winning record. I think this season's bye weeks, 6 and 10, are perfect for OBD. Both Indiana and OBD bye in Week 6 before the Hoosiers visit Autzen, and the Week 10 bye comes before the Week 11 game at Iowa. Of course, Penn State is talented enough to flip a switch and put everything together. PSU is 12-8 in White Out games but has won the last five in a row. I hate to take the Corvallis Crud over anything, but I do think a home game for Oregon this Saturday is better than taking a nap. PELT THE BEAVERS!
