What is the minimum Oregon has to do for you to consider the season a success? I ask this question now because I assume most of us would have been disappointed with the season had the Ducks not made the playoffs. Now that they have, I'll bet there's a little more diversity of thought about how to define a successful season. Winning one playoff game isn't enough for me. I view the game against JMU as a "non-conference warm-up game". If this game is anything less than a warm-up game (i.e., close game), I have far bigger concerns. Winning two playoff games is my minimum requirement to consider the year a success. The Ducks can't go out against a BIG 12 team; can't happen. The Ducks need to make it to the Semi-Final game . . . otherwise I'll be a Negative Nancy.

Jordan "Oregon, comfortably". Agreed, the only doubt is who wins the coin toss.

I think the game is a coinflip. I'm rooting for Oklahoma.

WIN / WIN, just WIN

Good call. But if DeBoer wins in Norman, I don't think he'll be able to put out a Cig in Pasadena. 😉 A score over DeBoer could Just Mean More, no doubt, but I want revenge for this season's loss. 🤬

Worth noting that there are multiple in conference teams that also hired a new coach during the same time frame as Beavis. Their new coaches strength is supposed to be recruiting 🤔

When making fun of the sheephumpers remember, Ben Siegert Did Not Steal A Gay Ram

On sports book has first half props: OBD - 11.5 (like it a lot) & JMU +6.5

Yes, the best thing is that the SEC will lose a game. Too bad they can't both lose. All that said, I would rather have Bama lose, because if they win they will say, "I told you we belong in the CFP." ...and then they will whine and cry next year too. I have Alabama/SEC Exhaustion Syndrome.

If you call Joey, Fat again, I'll have your legs broken. 😁 BTW, for more Jeopardy-like useless historic information, call 1- 800 - WHO- CARES. DUNK the DUKES!

There is no winner in this lose / lose situation. But I wouldn't mind the possibility of Dan righting the ship vs DeBoer.

If Portland State drops down a division, will the Beavs jump at the chance to fill that void and become a .500 team again?

Lane CC ???

It is the Duck's fault. Just ask them. Imagine a world where your favorite college football team is out-recruited by Utah State. Imagine.

Oklahoma. Alabama should never have gotten into the playoff with 3 losses.

I'm looking for DL and co. to make a statement in this first playoff game, win by 40.

Mateer is finally back to 100%. The OC will adapt the play calling to that reality and Mateer wil be slinging the ball to his NFL wide receivers suddenly giving Oklahoma an offense to match their defense, making them a contender to win it all. This game is going to look like a repeat of the SEC championship with Alabama not looking like they belong on the field.

*Sorry for the terrible screen grab. Can’t seem to straighten it out at the moment!

I’m definitely not noble 😆 PAC Standings

Thanks, Jordan. JMU took A(n) C(urious) C(ourse) to the PO, which was aided and abetted by a once-great basketball conference tie-breakers, and a choke in Charlotte. I do not believe it will matter tomorrow, but JMU was named after the guy, Jemmy, who his peers, including Franklin and Jefferson, considered to be the brightest of their bunch. Jemmy has the distinction of going 2-0 as a wartime president, and he also won the peace after both wars, a singular achievement for a president of the USA. In 1814, when the British sacked DC, Jemmy and his wife, Dolly, were among the last to evacuate the President's House. Dolly refused to leave the burning premises without taking the portrait of George Washington with them. I imagine Jemmy would be proud of his football team, and he would have been happy about knocking the PO out of Duke, but not wild over the moniker, Dukes. With all due respect to James, Dolly, and the Commonwealth of Virginia, Destroy the Dukes!

If the DeBoer to UM smoke is real, it’s enough of a distraction to tip the scales imo

There were six rematches in FBS football this season. Five of the first game losers, including Wazzu, which blasted Beavis the 2nd time around, won the rematch. The team that was 2-0? Texas Tech with two blowouts of BYU.

Definitely take this game seriously. This team is invading our coveted home turf. Their goal is to embarrass us in front our fans, and the entire sports world. Remember how crappy it felt to lose to IU at home? If the score is even close, pundits will say we are all show, and no go….let’s destroy these guys. I want to see disciplined violence on defense, and fireworks on offense.

Low scouring (SIC) affair, probably decided by a late drive or defensive score. I suspect 'Bama by 17-14. I expecte Whine will be served, with an unhealthy helping of cultish ESPN genuflection as the main course. They just matter more.

OOOOOOOOOOOO, Oklahoma! With a D that brings the pain! And the Sooners fans can make plans to head the Rose Bowl way. 24 to 17, I'll say. 😁 FWIW - Oklahoma is one of the few teams with an overall winning record vs The Tide - 5-2-1 - Venables 2 - DeBoer 0 - Since 2000, Oklahoma has the best home record in CFB.
