Sadiq did this on the TD drive and then got the ball for a first down.

That just means two years to a natty. Destroyed next year and win it barely the next year. Maybe we'll get a mysterious QB back named Bo Powers or Chad Nix?

Happy Will Stein gets to coach at Kentucky! I have confidence in Dan... but let's get a real offensive coordinator with some real experience.

Yes but keeping the trend, oh what fun it’ll be to watch them win it in ‘28 baby!

You gotta give Indiana their due. Cignetti has put together the greatest first two years of any coach anywhere. If he wins a title in ten days, he did something at a place that I don't know if even Saban could've done. This just sucks though, I don't know how you sugarcoat it. It's been a great season, and winning two playoff games is great in a season that was supposed to be more of a question than last year. But as Penn State , Notre Dame, and Texas showed. There's no guarantee any year. But I think Oregon will be back, it just sucks to see the butt kicking from the losing side. Go hit the transfer portal. Bring in experienced guys, and pay them to play. Paying freshman to sit on your bench isn't the way anymore. This weeks game results suck, I'm sorry. I don't have anything else to say. I'm looking forward to seeing Indiana blast Miami, but I was hoping it would've been Oregon. Maybe we'll see a halftime miracle. Go Ducks!!!!

It could be worse, What if you were a Fusky?

I’m really starting to doubt this logic… Like someone said Cig can come and win a national championship at the loosingest program in NCAA history in his second season with a bunch of 2 and 3 star recruits but Oregon has been investing and paying its dues for 2 decades without anything to show for it.

I resisted this for a while, but I'm now convinced that experienced, expensive portal QBs are how titles are won. Indiana and Miami have them. We had them the prior few years. Indiana already secured one for next year. Dante is a transfer but not an experienced ready-made product one. You have to have a seasoned, polished, top QB or you don't have a chance.

Yeah, if I don't have a little fun with it, I might cry.

Take a TE or a RB and block the edge, then release after a second of contact. Usually, the LBs are too deep to prevent at least a 5 yard gain. It's best on first and second down.

There is a saying, "Old age and treachery beats youth and ambition every time."

This. Every time I've seen Dante's face this season I haven't seen any kind of look in his eye that signals killer instinct like we've seen with Bo and Dillon. No snarl, no angry look. Just deer in headlights.

I agree with you fwiw. People are upset right now and rightfully so. In a game where we couldn't make mistakes, we made the biggest mistakes of the season. Coach Cig won't have a roster full of seniors his staff has been coaching for the last five years forever.

Likely two years in a row we get demolished by Nat Champion... At least we made the final four. Wonder what Texas Tech is thinking.. I know what I'm thinking.... but I shall exert discipline. No blocking backs was going to be an issue... We needed our offensive line to play a WHOLE lot better. Dante, as Ive said, does not see his open receivers seemingly and does not handle rush well at all. Throws a good ball.... I cautiously look forward to next year! Second half, nothing could wash the stink off other than a miracle.. Go Ducks. Go Indiana and do it to Miami!!

Its one thing to lose a competitive game. It's another when the doors get blown off in consecutive years by two different teams. That suggests a trend.

Yes, and it's been looking bright for many many years.

"Can't buy me love, no... no no no nooo." And apparently, not national championships either.

The post of the year! (2026)

If we only had more 4,5 and 6 year players than Indiana.

Well, I would hope nobody would argue with me, because there's really nothing to argue with, unless you're not a Duck fan, I guess. However, I agree, they could have done a lot better in this game, but it doesn't take away from what they've accomplished, and the future is looking pretty bright.

I know Moore needs another season or maybe 2, but he lacks the killer instinct of a #1 QB... He is not even near Trinidad Chambliss in that aspect

And more 25 yr olds.

It means the TEs give a good hard shove to the DE before heading out on their route. It makes the LBs think you are blocking for a run and slows down the DEs' rush for half a second.

If only we had more five star athletes than Indiana.
