In Laniing I trust!

In DL I trust. If there is any coach who would feel that he could take over Bama post Saban and win--it would be DL!! The man has the fire, drive, and belief that he can do it! If he goes, OBD lose plenty but the ship won't sink. Let's GO Ducks!!

If that would only work... On the brighter side Beavis will play as an independent for baseball under the Pac12 banner...it's the most important collegiate sport...

In Lanning I trust. As a first time head coach making mistakes is a given. Deboer is also a good coach and has out coached DL but he has been a head coach for a while. Lanning has showed he can hire and recruit. He has given us moments of bliss and pain but he is continuing to learn! Cristoballess only hired puppets and gave them no say in plays called. We as fans figured out his M/O and were quite happy Miami paid to take him off our hands! The future is very bright in the B1G for OBD! No more late games. No more incompetent commissioners. No more refs that make bad calls and compound them with bad makeup calls. I feel for the student athletes for the travel but what doesn't break them will make them stronger! I will enjoy seeing some of this community as I travel to away games!! Go Ducks!

Really? Texas at #2?? Are they returning the entire roster?

WSU picking up a few transfers from OBD. Wonder where they got all the money?

I will also interject that we need to verify total minutes played. Several games that MM played he was pulled after the first series in the 3rd. Bo is great but I will also give the nod to MM. My favorite player is Jeremiah Masoli--he was fun to watch!

I will be rooting for Michigan! The Fuskies and their fans are already insufferable.

We already know that DL has a top 10 recruiting class. Replacing talent has happened and will likely continue. His next task is to beat the Fuskies. Out recruiting hasn't equated to out coaching yet. On a side note: the four new B1G teams are 4-0 in bowl games! Like someone else said, at least two teams from the pac are going to be in the teir 1 group of the B1G next season and all for will be in the top half of the B1G!

I will always root AGAINST the SEC and the Mickey Mouse network! Are they dominant? Yes. Do they play anyone outside their conference that may potentially beat them in a home-n-home series? Hardly ever. Why? To keep up the mystique. The one rule should be the top conferences should play other top conferences in the pre-season if they are to be considered for the playoffs. This includes OBD. Scheduling lower teir teams should be a knock against a team. The caveat is there are plenty of crap teams in the top conferences!

Bo looks like he is playing within himself...much better expression on the first drive of the game.

I forget whoch bowl game it was but there was a really bad call from the refs and one of the commentators said their Pac12 refs. It's bad when even the commentators point out how crappy the Pac12 refs are!! Hopefully the B1G actually let go and crappy refs...Let's GO DUCKS! OOOOOOO

If the cameras show Bo's face on the first offensive possession it will signal what type of game it will be. I don't know if anyone else noticed his face on the first possession in the Pac12 championship game? What I saw on his face in that possession was the look of sheer terror--how he used to look when he played for Auburn his 2nd and 3rd year. That look signaled, to me, that it was going to be a rough night for OBD on offense. As Bo goes so shall OBD. Let's GO DUCKS!

Man Georgia put up a good fight but FSU was SO dominant! I think the Playoff Committee was wrong leaving them out...

Ryan Day may not be coaching in the B1G for much longer! Three straight losses to hated Michigan and this fugly bowl loss too...

They are in the B1G and OBD will play them. Good to see that a 6-6 B1G team can beat one of the top teams in the ACC...

That would suck. I was planning a little Hawaii time culminating in attending this game. I can still vacation if the game doesn't happen. Go Ducks!

I still believe. OBD has been inching closer to the top and I'm glad I am alive for this ride! DL is a beast! The passion he shows, his hiring acumen, and his will to win are all top notch. Give him a couple of years of learning and the B1G will be sorry that they were talked into taking OBD! The freight train is just leaving the station.

The thieves have won. Don't pay them anymore money.

So now we pay to play the Beavis??! Really? Let's reward the thieves...

You and I are of the same mindset Charles! For nearly the quarter of a century Oregon has carried the torch for the Pac-12 in Football but have also contributed on the basketball court. We have a major donor but season ticket holders have continued to buy and support the team. I have more gear from the bookstore than I can wear without looking like the little brother from a Christmas Story. I still give money to UO. I work with more Beavis than I care to and hear all their whining. Oddly they haven't said a word all this week?? They don't "deserve" all the money that was made for the 23-24 season. They can have the divided share. They can have the media money from the Pac-12 network after this season but don't ask Ducks to feel sorry for you because your school chose to invest all the money from the last quarter century on everything but your money making sports!

So the narrative, all year, is B1G has the two best teams, the Pac is the best conference, and Georgia looks beatable but still #1. I question all the narratives that the AP, coaches poll, and the CFP. If they wanted to they could change it all up and say the Pac, B1G, and the Big12 is crap and only the SEC and ACC are worth a damn--like the last 10 years. The Pac is only getting the "respect" because Fox and ESPN were colluding to destroy it. Now that it has been destroyed they changed the narrative. I guarantee that top to bottom the Pac had just as good a league as all the other leagues! Now, I hope UO and UW take down the B1G every year!

Up until Willie and Mari-no-O I was happy with a top 25 recruiting class! Now we know that recruits will go to a place where they're coveted and their egos are massaged! Lanning and crew are doing an amazing job! But their recruiting doesn't stop after the signatures, they show the young men that they are worth the effort and coached up!! Let's GO DUCKS!!

That is a shock to me! Franklin is in the top 4 but got snubbed! I still believe that he IS the best receiver in the nation!
