  1. Agree. WSU is selling out to stop the run. If Nix pulls it a couple times they'll back off
  2. Glad they tried that trick play early in game and not at a critical juncture. That was terrible.
  3. We know it's not Camden's technique that's an issue. I'm guessing the confidence/psychological issues he has his freshman year might be resurfacing for whatever reason. In any case this is not a good sign for special teams.
  4. Feels like the swing pass play calling is getting predictable. WSU's defense was ready twice in a row.
  5. I'm digging the throwback uniforms
  6. Not to mention both DL and Tosh have national championship rings as DCs. I don't think any other team can make this boast.
  7. They need to make those 12:30pm PST kick off times. That makes the most sense in getting proper exposure across all time zones. 9:00am is a good way to tick off the entire west coast.
  8. Yeah, Sling is a little weird. ESPN is on the "orange" package while FS1 is on the "blue" package, both are $40 stand alone or $55 to get both. B1G Network is on the supplemental "sports" package for an extra $11 (though it also includes the networks for SEC, ACC, FS2, NBA TV, etc.).
  9. A good burger and a brat is the best for me, not to mention potato salad like some of you guys
  10. I think we need something similar for Will Stein. A veteran OC that can come on as an offensive analyst that can provide all sorts of guidance and sage advice before game time.
  11. What's interesting is Elijah's general body language and facial expressions. Unless I'm really bad at interpreting, he sounds like he's just ready to be done with the whole recruiting thing and get it out of the way asap. I feel like this bodes well for OBD since we were essentially his 2nd choice when he prematurely committed to AZ.
  12. Expectations should realistically be tempered with Will Stein before the season started. He's absolutely an intelligent, creative, young offensive mind like Kenny Dillingham. The interesting juxtaposition with Will and Kenny is that coming into this season, Will had less overall experience as an OC at the college level but twice as much as an actual play caller (2 years vs 1 for Kenny). Because of this, I couldn't really "guestimate" Will's and Kenny's would-be performance comparison beyond a wash and that we'd see similar year 2 improvement and growing pains if Kenny had stayed with play calling duties. Unfortunately we just have to be patient with Will. Like Charles points out, overall he's been doing a fantastic job despite his short resume coming into the program. He's bright, inventive, and adaptive like most of the young coaching staff. I say "unfortunately" because that timing doesn't line up with what we need because of the talent and experience we have in the players...Bo and Franklin are both likely gone after this season. It is what it is, we just need to accept that there will inevitably be bumps along the way and that may stop OBD from getting to the CFP or even the Pac12 championship game this year. But the future is invariably bright and with the continued top 10 recruiting classes pouring in, the coaching staff has an embarrassment of riches in terms of talent to mold and make Oregon really competitive in the B10.
  13. Should Lanning had punted, UW would've had more than 2 minutes to score. They could score twice in that span of time. So I don't hate the decision to go for it on 4th and 3 to put the game to bed. To me that was a coin flip decision.
  14. I love James and Bucky. One's a wrecking ball and the other is a magician
  15. These refs are deliberately trying to give UW the game, incomplete catch my #ss!!!
  16. Ouch I hope JPJ isn't out long
  17. The offense must come through on this one. Put it to bed!!!
  18. Refs are trying to give the Fuskies every PI possible, especially ones that aren't there.
  19. Ever since Jordan James took a rib shot in the 1st half he's been in hulk mode. He obviously took that personally and I love it.
  20. I have to agree with this. Odunze is a big receiver and Florence was undersized against him. I think Odunze is t used to being covered by such a tall defensive back that's just as quick as he is.
  21. 2 CBs injured on the ground, are you kidding me?
