I love how "fans" have praised Stein's offense for wins but now are posting/perpetuating his offense after a loss! If you're going to be critical, be that, but don't two-face your criticism after a loss! The team is good. The O line has been an issue for two previous games, Northwestern and PSU, but the win made it better! With a loss we have people saying the OC is to blame?? If you believe in your own hype, another team will knock you down a peg, which is poison. As a fan, if you don't pull the rose-colored glasses off, you will be swallowed by the hype. We have a very good team but injuries and the hype poison will affect every team. Learn from the loss and become greater!!

I don't care who we get as a guest picker for GameDay but can "we" please, the love all things Ducky, get every fan in Autzen to wear yellow??! It was awesome to see all of PSU fans, some Ducks, in white! I don't care if you "don't look good in yellow," it would be really nice to see some unity! The only game I remember, ever, where every fan wore the same color was "Fright Night" against USC (black is not a color). That was, still, the loudest game I have ever attended at Autzen. Side note: Beaver Stadium was loud but not even close to Autzen's second loudest game, the *uckeyes!

I'd say Tennessee ranks pretty high! Never has an offensive line and most QBs have failed. OBD Marcus was thrown to the lions with that team even though the team loved him, they couldn't protect him and help him thrive!

I guess I didn't get my wish...I want OBD to fly under the radar and just stay at #6 or drop another couple of spots--old Pac-12 rank syndrome. I want everyone to believe that OBD suck and can't win games, take them lightly, and write them off until they blow the doors out of the "ranking" systems!

I guess I was in the minority. I "knew" Dante was going to be the man. After enduring the Bruin beatings, then choosing to sit behind Gabriel to learn, and having back-ups that looked "better" than him in the Spring game. I told my friends, that I grew up with from grade school, that Danté was going to be the man and they were going to be shocked! The Moore to Moore combination was going to be electric. I have not been wrong, in that regards, but I will eat crow in believing the Tosh is OBD Achilles heal.

With all three phases equal, player make-up, it comes down to coaches. Which team, of the last 8 teams, has the best coaches/staff (most prepared)? Answer: OBD! SCO Ducks!!

JJ, thank you for the reminder "Don't Worry." I haven't been worried or been fearful of a loss all season...even when asked by Beavis (and others) about wisco and psu. Confident enough to buy flights to and from Atlanta. Anyone want to split my Airbnb with me (whole place)? SCO Ducks!!

Dan is, rightfully so, getting his props from some of the pundits! Everyone is entitled to their opinion but I definitely prefer Dan on OBD sideline versus going against him!! SCO Ducks!!

You know someone at a bar told me that osu decided not to blitz OBD the first time around and that's why OBD won the game?? So it wasn't the fact that the O-line was just better than the D? It's amazing that OBD has the smartest, craftiest coach that has done more with "less" overall talent than osu! Money can buy you championships, ta&m, if you have the coach and staff to lead the young men! Oregon can, and will, out play and coach osu for another win.

That's awesome! I am actually hedging my bets and bought my flight to Atlanta and gotten an Airbnb for 5 days. Let's GO Ducks!! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Here's my BOLD prediction: Moore will thrive next year, Smith Jr. and Sagapolutele will redshirt. Sagapolutele will take the QB1 spot in year 2 and Austin and Jake will transfer out. Sagapolutele will be OBD 2nd Heisman. ...And OBD will win 2 out of the next 3 National Championships.

Will Beavis and Butthead lend these schools their lawyers? They took away voting power from the departing Pac12 schools, even though they didn't depart early...to steal all the money they didn't earn.

Dillon wins the Chicago Tribune Silver Football. One of just a few QBs to win the trophy!

I hope he waits for a better offer but, if not, I wish him luck! I believe in his ability to coach.

I have two pills for my PTSD: Dan Lanning and Dillon Gabriel. When I am really in need I add Tez Johnson and Matayo Uiagaelei into the rotation of pills and I'm way relaxed brah!! Let's GO Ducks!! OOOOOOOOO

Bring on the playoffs!

osu buckheads, I'm sure, are at the front of that line.

Oddly enough Oregon is NOT in the top 10 of schools that pay the most for their players (per unsubstantiated reports) but it is the current landscape. Money doesn't buy championships, Texas A&M spent more money than anyone before it was allowed, and they fired that coach! If you're griping about it, fusky and beavis, try actually investing in football which makes your schools money! Oregon didn't get invited into the B1G and have to take a loan out to pay the entrance fee. Oregon made money by investing in the programs that helped build brand. Track town USA ring a bell?

Tez out played every vaunted team he played against including the two best Ds in the B1G. He also doesn't need to push off, Jeremiah Smith, to get separation to make a catch. Joel full O'Klatt says that's not OPI because he talks to all refs. Yet Tez is second team and doesn't have to do that. Yes, OBD is balanced and I'm appreciative of that. Put the best receivers in a vacuum and Tez will out run, route, catch, and avoid all Ds. In my eye-test, Tez out-classes all receivers this year.

Here's a task for everyone: filll out the playoff bracket choosing the winners by which coach will have their team ready and make the right calls to win each game! Who's in your final four?

They all transfer out if Jaren-Keawe Sagapotele lights it up next fall but I think Dante will win the job. Hopefully Jaren will be ok with redshirting a year. I see several years, in a row, of Heisman finalists in OBD future.

They just had to watch the BCG. Who was named MVP? The ONLY receiver to get that distinction! PSU's vaunted D couldn't stop him from catching a cold. That was a load of cr*p!!

How is Tez a second team anything??!! He ran circles around the entire B1G! Those post season rankings were crap.

I was at the game and it was 70% psu, 15% Ducks, and 15% other fans. It was great because no matter how loud they got, OBD converted drives into scores.

Dan Lanning is fond of saying, "If you're good enough, you're old enough."
