I like the narrative this game has, in June; it will get even louder as the game gets closer. Lanning and Oregon are absolutely not looking at this as Oregon's got nothing to lose. But Franklin's history, the returning QB, the White-Out all puts Penn State in the driver's seat...maybe off a cliff. Joel Klatt names surprise team as Penn State's most important game this season WWW.SPORTINGNEWS.COM Why Fox Sports' Joel Klatt believes Oregon, not Ohio State, is the most crucial must-win game of the season for James Franklin...

“The committee realizes there are hurdles to implementing the quarter format to the game, including the structuring of media timeouts to accommodate commercial inventory. With all the media timeouts, it was hard to get a real sense of momentum and flow with the 20 minute halves, be interesting to see how 10 minute quarters are dissected to accommodate broadcasts.

Oregon's Quarterback Recruiting: Panic or Patience?
30Duck replied to NJDuck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
First, welcome, Porter. He did recruit Moore, who flipped to UCLA and is now back at Oregon. Since Lanning has been at Oregon, despite the starting QB's coming through the portal, Oregon has not had trouble getting QB recruits. Moore was a recruit, Novosad is, one of them will be the starter in 2025. -
The SEC still can't believe that they didn't win the football Natty the last two years, didn't even play in the championship game; the B1G has two Natty's in a row. The news about Alabama last season were the L's to Okie and Vandy, and now baseball, 13 up, 2 left. I know it means a lot to Oregon State. but as far as baseball, PAWL sounds like Rhett Butler,

Yep, Pepsi thought New Coke was a great idea.

I'm glad that Lanning is the coach at Oregon and that he has Kirby and Saban for mentors, and his coaching tree is already looking good with Dilly at ASU.

Is Gambling the Only Reason People Can Enjoy Sports?
30Duck replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I had buddies in college, later in the Navy, when we went to games it was so they could drink beer, couldn't care less how the game was going. There weren't any bookies involved, just $$$ between friends, but that was the only way they'd actually watch a game. Perlman touches on it, and I've seen enough stories; fantasy football can get ugly. A players life can be threatened if he doesn't have a great game and his fantasy "owner" takes a hit. Or , forget fixing, just a loss can send a gambler to crazyland. To me, watching the game is where the fun is. -
I like to check the odds, and the Pick the Score contest before the Ducks game is fun. But that's about it. Having money on the game would take all the fun out of it for me.

X marks Jeremiah Smith. He said, "You can't cover me 1 on 1" as the saying goes, if it's true it ain't braggin'. 6'3, 219 and OBD were trying to jam him up with CB's who were 5'10, 180. None of OBD's WR's are that, but DeVonta Smith, 6'0 170, won the 2020 Heisman.

So, there is one time, that I know of, when 3 letters, 2 of them the same, the other identical, form two words. The letters are in different order, the sound is the same, but the meanings are different. What are the two words? -
"Opportunity" is definitely how Lanning looks at things, sometimes OBD take advantage of them, sometimes they don't, but that is the positive approach. I agree with the idea of Lowe and the observation that there a lot opportunities in Oregon's WR Room, and whatever room Sadiq wants.

I'm Calling it Now, Oregon State is Winning the Natty, AGAIN...
30Duck replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Could not agree more! Part of baseball is the aesthetics. The sound of a solid hit is as good as there is in sports. Imagine this scene in "the Natural" if Roy Hobbs had an aluminum bat!
