I don't know Charles. There has been just a couple of games this season where our Ducks were "fired" up. I hope it's a good game but I expect it to be too close to call until the end.

Here is my take...which Oregon MBB coach, in Oregon history, has had 20+ win seasons in every one of his years as a head coach? Give up? Dana Altman. From his first year to this year he makes every team a contender with current players and transfer portal players. In Dana I trust.

Our D is good but I never expect them to hold up against an onslaught for three quarters. The Offense needs to do a better job at letting them get some breathing time. If not, the offense needs to score on more possessions. The best thing about CK's teams were they scored a lot of times on offense which made the other team one dimensional. The D was on the field a lot but there was only one focus--stop the pass. I still can't figure out the identity of this team.

It was a horrible shooting night. No barns available because they weren't hitting them. Wide open shots, layups, point blank scoops, all were missed. I had hoped it was a case of one side of the court versus the other but the second half was only marginally better! In Altman I trust...

So are you saying that other athletic apparel company took a page out of Ugly Duck wear? With that being said, I prefer the grey to that brown "stain" color that coach wears...

Is expected to be the #1 recruiting class. The second of the Graves era!

The beginning of the end of the Jimmy Pond experiment...

I loved RG3 as a play-by-play announcer. Better than most of those puppet mouths! I appreciate his insight, his entertainment value, and his funny interjections.

I'm sorry Charles but I still think this stems from being booed in Autzen. If the Ducks have multi-score wins, from then on, that will be the game that caused it. I hope he understands that style makes the FANS happy...I love wins BUT every away game

I took an a gf to a Fuskie game when the Ducks had won 8 in a row. She was amazed at how all hydrants were painted green and yellow and how the Fuskie fans were throwing bread on the ground. The game was over by halftime. On our way out we had our stadium cushions slung over our backs walking towards our car. Some drunk Fuskie fan ran up to her and kicked her in the back. From that point on she said, "I don't like Huskies."

We can only hope Georgia is the real deal and takes Alabama out of the equation....SEC>all other conferences ever...I'd love for the Ducks to play Georgia either first or second in the playoffs! I only hope (and pray) that MC continues with the current coaching strategy of win and win big against all challengers! Huck the Fuskies and win the week!!

I respectfully disagree with you because MC told the fans the didn't like that "shit" and things changed more in last couple of games after than in all of his time here. The glasses we wear and drink from are different from our own personal experiences as fans.

I get TV slots but the Pac should be highlighting Oregon games! Isn't this team the cream of the crop??

I think it took some fans booing MC and staff for a change to happen. I do like JM in the booth better though.

He will be consistently inconsistent. JM needs to call more dink-n-dunk passes. He, AB, needs to utilize his backs more especially in potential pitch situations.

My favorite uniforms were from the 2012 Rose Bowl...the introduction of the liquid metal helmets!

Watching AB throw "deep" passes I saw him throw 10 feet above and 5 yards deeper than his receivers. He just doesn't have the touch, feel to make those passes. It's like he has depth perception issues or is nearsighted.

I meant a one score win.

I didn't boo myself but I am not upset at other fans doing so. I pay enough for tickets every year and I walked out of that game. The win against UCLA was nice, as Jon said, but it was only a point win by "the best" team in the Pac12. Charles suggest that we reset our expectations of a MC coached team. It is true because if we are expecting anything more than a one score win against any team then our expectations are too high. This is MCs best as a head coach...he has a winning record and appears he is "prevent" coaching.

I guess I should have refreshed instead of starting the same discussion...DOH!

I actually like JM being in the booth calling the plays better than on the field.

He's been behind even with short routes. Redd is one of the best and he misses him...

Well, it's all a matter of Ws...we know better. Our Ws are just Ls waiting to happen...

So the reason for Oregon's stagnant offense is HC?...QB?...I'm hesitant to blame the players when it's a groundhog day offense for four years and...Herbert. Remember Herbert's freshman year being thrown to the lions of purple? He was mauled by a stout D and looked pretty good. His next three years were very pedestrian, aside from the Pac12 championship game...
