I had no idea he was even playing today. That's nice to see.

Ducks need 2 more TDs and shut out the Cougs the rest of the way.

Blake Purchase has some scary speed for a big dude!

Nice effort by Nikko to almost get that INT, great heads up play by Evan Williams to keep that same play from going bad.

I don't know what he was doing before but I know he was eating artificial turf afterward haha

Nice run by Bucky. Patrick Herbert bulldozing the cougar defender in the replay was pretty awesome lol

Tez Johnson is an interesting kid. He doesn't have elite breakaway speed needed for consistent separation from defensive backs. I don't see him making home run plays for a TD. He's more quick and squirrelly, so he can get you 5-10 yards in the middle of the field if you toss a quick pass to him.

Agreed. Humans are creatures of habit and Will Stein is no different. He keeps going back to those screen passes which now everyone and their mother has seen. The offense had better results when they started having the receivers run slant routes and attacking with mid-length passes. That allowed the running game to finally get going.

Offense needs to continue making adjustments. These slow starts are going to kill OBD when they play better teams.

They missed a holding call by WSU just a couple plays ago.

Seems like the defensive backs are losing track of the receivers on nearly every play. Are they watching the QB instead of the pass catchers?

I'm not blaming them, I'm simply predicting it based on what I'm seeing.

As good as the defense is, it's not going to last forever. Will Stein and the offense needs to do their jobs and score.

Given that they took forever to figure out where to spot the ball on the last play, I'm going to stick with they're not inspiring any confidence. They're going to cause problems, especially if the game is tight at the end.

Well that was interesting.

It was...after calling a PI on the wrong player.

These refs are not inspiring any confidence.

Agree. WSU is selling out to stop the run. If Nix pulls it a couple times they'll back off

Glad they tried that trick play early in game and not at a critical juncture. That was terrible.

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.

Feels like the swing pass play calling is getting predictable. WSU's defense was ready twice in a row.

I'm digging the throwback uniforms

Not to mention both DL and Tosh have national championship rings as DCs. I don't think any other team can make this boast.

Oregon, 45-14, 2, 4, 275

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.
