Two takeaways for me, to win the next one: Take the points Pass the ball vertically

Let's scout out our opponent! I am very concerned for the Hoosiers considering the "Long-Layoff" monster has bitten six teams straight. But I can't shake the feeling that the 'Tide is going to be taken to the Woodshed. Thoughts?

Agreed about Tosh. Now do Stein :)

At times, not sure what our offensive brain trust was thinking. Against a defense of the caliber of Texas Tech, a go for it, taking the bit between your teeth mentality is just not smart football. In big time games; breath, and take what the situation offers.

Back in the day it was always like this on Jan 1st with all the bowl games. But back then it was both teams that had the time off which usually resulted in slow 1st half starts.

Lanning would have had is team take a knee as usual, except for the useless BS timeouts called by TT. No apologies for an extra TD

After spitting the bit vs. JMU, I think Tosh had his full attention on OBD, and OBD's D. 👍👍👍

Yeah, just a practical guess on my part. 1 extra week to help banged up players get healthy before getting back into it in the 2nd week.

Texas Tech's big-money roster comes up small vs. Oregon in Orange Bowl Texas Tech spoke all week about playing on the big stage, about the college football world getting to see what has been built in the West Texas town. They had a chance to continue reeling in the Big Ten and SEC (both looking vulnerable this postseason), and make a statement for the Big 12 and ACC. Then ran into a motivated defensive buzzsaw against Oregon.

It would be an interesting study to attempt to determine when degradation begins. I'm guessing you're right and that it's about 14 days. After that, I think it starts working against a team.

50 years ago to the day I was at The Orange Bowl 1976. A mere child was I. Rooted for OU to beat Michigan 14-6 to win The National Title. Wasn't there today. But will be there January 19th for a UO National Title. First Atlanta GO DUCKS!

Tosh, By Gosh! Brother Mike West, if you're right for the wrong reason, you're still right! 😁And, OBD did control the clock, and then some. Atlanta - We're coming to your City! 👍👌❤️😍

we held them to ZIP!!!!!

Just the 3rd Oregon defensive shutout in the last 13 years. So unbelievably impressive. And what makes this all the more amzing to me is that it comes on the heels of giving up 500+ yards to JMU.

TT fans in chat rooms were all hanging their hat on the JMU game score. All puuffed up about how good their offense is compared to the High School we let score at will….lol I love that we blew up that narrative.

This is my favorite win EVER!!!!! Until next week

Both defenses played pretty well, OBD's offense was too much for TT. Loved the fake punt call. Too bad the Ducks could seem to find the end zone. Credit to the TT D.

Our offense has got to figure some things out before we play our next game. 1 offensive TD on a short 5 yard field, is not going to cut it next time. But holy crap... our defense has just been insane today. Nobody in their right mind predicted that our defense would hold the high octane TT offense to 0 points.

I LOVE Grey Pants! I am stunned at how the defense played....never saw that coming. But I am disappointed that we did not throw the ball to the wide receivers more...but I gotta count my blessings.

Oregon blanks Texas Tech in Orange Bowl as Ducks defense rises to occasion, leads charge into CFP semifinals Oregon put on a defensive show against an anemic Texas Tech offense as the Ducks move on to the Peach Bowl semifinal

Personal thoughts: DL and Tosh really didn’t like how the JMU game ended and laid into the defense for it. Will Stein took his turn in being distracted by his new job. Focus on your current one first!

Well the Tech DL destroyed my narrative...but their WRs played exactly how I thought they would. The playoff format helped OBD today. But the defense stepped up. Another scenario when one unit bailed out the other. On to the next one.
