Great article Charles, thank you! I look forward to the off-season breakdowns by you and Coach Boles. They will definitely lighten up the long dark season of no football! My biggest concern is keeping Coach Dilly for the foreseeable future. While he is bringing back the Oregon brand, the man is making himself a hot property.

…And have been since the turn of the century! To the point that the cowardly LA schools jumped from the PAC to avoid playing (and being beaten by) OBD! Of course they claim it was for the $$ but that will end up a wash when they add in the travel costs for all the lowers revenue sports. Thank you David! Well played indeed!

USuCk: a speed bump on the road to Duck supremacy! If, and only if, they get past the Bruins.

What is going on with the Linebacking Corps? At the beginning of the season, I (mistakenly it appears) assumed that our linebackers were going to be a force to be reckoned with and be the leaders of the Duck D. Noah Sewell, DJ Johnson, Jeffrey Bassa, Jackson LaDuke, Keith Brown, and even Justin Flowe were all poised for breakout seasons, or so I thought. That has not happened. Any thoughts as to why? Is it coaching? Schemes? I realize these guys were Mari’s picks and not Dan’s, but NS, DJ J, JB, KB, and JF should be able to play for anyone. Why do you think our linebackers are not leading the D? You guys have way more football acumen than I, and I would be very interested to hear your take. Thank you.

I don’t see OBD falling into any trap this year for two reasons. #1, this coaching staff will not let them. #2, THESE DUCKS ARE UNSTOPPABLE! At least according to FOX! (although I tend to agree!)

that was totally awesome!. 3 for 3 in 4th down plays and 1 for 1 in onside kicks! When CK used to to this stuff, he earned the nickname BB Chip. Has DL earned the BB Dan yet?

FOX was right, THESE DUCKS ARE UNSTOPPABLE!

Oregon is Unstoppable! You heard it on FOX!

Middle 4 baby!

It don’t get no better than that! SSWWEEEEETT!!!

We keep giving up too many yards on first down

It’s your hotel. Try the bar!

OR, 42-35, 1, 2, 342. I hope JustDucky wins it! I want to watch THAT game!

I too, don’t take this as anything more than a coach telling the press that the players play the game and everything else is just outside noise. We also need to remember that DL is new here, and he really has yet to see the true power and intimidation that a charged up Autzen sellout crowd can bring to bear! Methinks his appreciation for such a phenomenon will be greatly increased by his post game remarks!

I guess the Ducks get no love! Both had a by week, but UCLA goes from 11 to 10 while the Ducks drop from 11 to 15?

I saw that article yesterday but dismissed it as probably a one sided drivel piece. I see now it was a fair assumption. I look forward to seeing a loss by one of the traitors this week and a loss handed to both of them next week, and to see the smugness wiped from their fan bases. I too, can be petty and mean spirited. SoCal has long earned a certain reputation among Oregonians, and in a lot of ways, this is more of the same.

I too remember when a good season was winning more than 4, and a great season meant a Bowl Game. (Those we’re the days when a Bowl Game was a Bowl Game, and there were no “bottom-feeder”.bowls.) I am delighted to know that Oregon’s dominance over the LA schools since the turn of the century, is what caused them to look to leave the Conference of Champions!

IMHO, I think greed is to blame for the whole mess. Greedy networks, greedy Universities, greedy boosters, and greedy coaches. The NIL is just greedy lawyers trying to get more for themselves and for some of the greedy players they represent. I think the majority of the players would have been fine (and played just as hard) with the way it was before, but will happily accept anything the NIL process throws their way.

The traitorous university of spoiled children this year did what I thought no team could ever do. They actually crawled deep enough into the slime-ball gutter to come in lower than the prostitute purple and hooker gold clad mongrels from the north. Go Utes, destroy the condoms. Give them the fist of four defeats to end their season hopes. I want to see the bears, the bruins, and the golden domers all hand the rubbers a big L.

KD is definitely deserving of this award, and could have gotten it for the Stanford game, making it B2B for the Arizona game!

Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't Mari-no-O the one who showed that Oregon could recruit top tier recruits? Something that previous coaches just assumed could not be done?

Charles, First of all, you are neither petty nor little! What you are, is a HUGE Duck fan who has gone so far above and beyond what any other Duck fan has done, it is incredible and beyond words to describe. You have created and maintained a civil forum (with decorum) where like minded Duck fans can come to peacefully and safely learn more about OBD. I cannot thank you enough. As far as the multitudes out there that think they have to tear someone else down, so they can feel better about themselves? Delete their comments and don’t lose any sleep over it. People posting poorly don’t need you (or your moderators) to babysit their bad behavior. When they go back and see their comment is gone, they should understand that the deleted comment fell short of the desired decorum. This is YOUR playground Charles, and YOU let us play in it. Your rules are clear, and the civility and safety they create keeps most of us coming back. Personally, I have deleted many of my would be posts, simply because I read them a final time while thinking of the old adage “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all,” before I click “Submit Reply.” My final comment? Well done Sir Charles, and THANK YOU!

As long as OBD don’t let it go to their heads. These “projections” are meaningless, our boys need to prove it on the field of play. Chip’s Traitors looked better than decent against the Utes, and cannot be taken lightly. If DL and company can keep OBD coached up and fired up to play to their potential and keep improving at least 1% every week, we will be one tough team to deal with.

I personally like this pink better than the “egg shell” from the Arizona game! I’d go so far as to say it is even better than the pinks of recent years.

I notice Masoli had a bandage on his knee, and he’s not wearing shorts!
