Our defense is the opposite of bend don't break this year. I'm not sure what it is called but I think it is intentional. Our team is fast enough and good enough in the secondary that we play more aggressive in some ways that leave us more vulnerable to occasional dagger plays, but on the whole is very effective.

The defensive stats are amazing but for some reason the defense doesn’t seem as dominant as they indicate. I wonder if it’s the result of a few key plays/drives over the course of the game? They seem to have trouble closing out some games (e.g., Penn State, Iowa) after absolutely dominating the majority of the game. In the Iowa game it was a result of a couple of pass coverage breakdowns by LBs and the safeties, and a bad defense call on 4th and goal.

I apologize if I offended anyone.

Will the Grapevine Gurus keep Iowa in the top 25? Will one-loss Texas Tech, with a loss to ASU, stay ahead of one-loss OBD? Tune in tonight, and may I suggest you do so with the sound off, at least when Joey Galloway opens his trap. 🤪 Oregon Ducks On SICollege Football Playoff Rankings Shake Up After Week 11With week 11 in the rearview mirror, another top-25 ranking from the College Football Playoff Selection Committee is set to be released on Tuesday.

So you're saying OREGON hass more PHYSICALITY than Miami, and is more cerebral than UW?

True, but we will get some strong clues from he B1G championship game.

But Washington jumped around at Wisconsin just like Oregon did... Shouldn't that result in a win for them?

Sir Charles thank you for accumulating these revealing numbers. If this team can discipline themselves and complete drives that end up in points then the defense will do the job needed to win out and beyond..... Bring the DOMERS to Eugene for a first round playoff game. Hopefully the BIG will tone down the bias and put a leasch on the refs. Saturday's crew needs a 1 game suspension. Now is the time for more improvement and statement games. GO DUCKS!

Hey...Who Else Loves this Helmet?

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

This article is just small piece of a larger narrative that the SEC and Notre Dame homers are pushing for their own playoff status. It’s a campaign to influence the playoff committee. The more they beat the drum about Oregon’s “weak” schedule the more everybody starts to believe it. They’re counting on Oregon losing one more game, so they can get them pushed out of the playoffs and replaced by a 3-loss SEC team. It makes it easier to justify Notre Dame’s spot. It’s also their way of making the B1G look like a weak conference. Want to see proof? Listen to the take from B1G alum Joey Galloway.

Can’t seem to cut a break from bad weather. Hopefully the playoff committee should be taking this in consideration, but will they?

I could not find an answer to your question, but I did find the following: https://sports.yahoo.com/article/gophers-football-two-big-ten-162300679.html I think Fox decides when games will be played on Friday nights. I don't know whether Fox has input on the teams playing Friday night. I do know that many programs, including Ohio State, are not happy with Noon kickoffs. Petitti cannot have been happy with Texas at Ohio State kicking off at noon. In prime time, this game probably draws two million + more viewers. No B1G team played more than seven conference games in a row this season. 8 games in a row was a hose job. Does Rob Mullens beef about these scheduling quirks? I don't know? He seems to be a Go Along to Get Along kind of guy.

More testing, as we had issues placing pictures in posts....

OD, your SC comment was humorous. However, in compliance with the Forum operating procedures and a few complaints, I deleted the post. Please, keep up your great posts, use XXXX as needed. All the best, Brother.

I also hope that the media continues to doubt Oregon because Coach Lanning and the team certainly use it as extra motivation, as that and other episodes show.
