30Duck

Of course it's Cowherd. Each hour of his show, a very slow Thursday. he brings up the "story" about the NFL being a possibility for Lanning, as if the "story" was the culmination of research, not that it's the wish of some writer with an Ohio background.

I'bve never been a 49er fan, but good on Lenoir!

This Brian Jones says, "Ducks all the way, Mate!"

So,39 just doesn't do it?

SUC is having a garage sale on recruits, just hit with a violation, is being upstaged by the basketball school across town, are stuck with a $80-90M buyout for Riley. Now it makes sense to not have names on the back of the jerseys, and Snoop Dogg isn't coming to the games anymore.

The Ducks have yet to lose this year and have been at the top of the first two sets of College Football Playoff rankings. To make this matchup favor Oregon even more, Wisconsin has lost two games in a row and just fell to Iowa by 32 in Week 10 before a much-needed bye in Week 11. However, CBS college football analyst Brian Jones is rolling with Wisconsin to upset Oregon on Saturday. "Wisconsin over Oregon," Jones said with a smirk on his face.

From Athlon This summer he told another ESPN reporter, Paolo Uggetti, "I feel like I have the things necessary here to win. So how much money does a person need to make? What do you really need in your life? For me, I want to be in a place where I can win championships. I feel like we're close to that here. And then there is a level of loyalty to people that gave you an opportunity. Why should anybody ever trust me again if I, if I do leave here for something else?"

Michigan has gone all in, in hopes of landing five-star signal caller Bryce Underwood. The Belleville product is an LSU commit but that's not stopping the Wolverines from doing all they can to keep him in the state of Michigan for three-to-four more years. First, it was 'Michigan is offering $5 million' to Underwood. Then $5 million turned more into $10 million, but it appears the Wolverines have upped the ante in hopes of swaying Underwood to come to Ann Arbor. According to On3's The Wolverine, Michigan is prepared to offer Underwood a $10.5 million deal over four years.

Darn, it's rough up there in Husky land. Go, Bruins, Go, Dawgs!!!

That uniform is really exciting.

Which is more impressive, going 7-2 against the No.1 ranked schedule, or 10-0 against the No.100 schedule. What the committee knows, and what should not at all be obvious in these presentations, is that Indiana v. Ohio State simply becomes that much bigger if both teams enter with top-5 rankings.

I'm guilty. When I come up with my score for the prediction contest it has the Ducks covering the spread, For some reason that's important to me. It shouldn't be, and after all these weeks I should get it that Lanning couldn't care less about the spread either. (Michigan fans might feel otherwise, but who cares.) The point is, Oregon is winning, just like when the Oregon teams used to be ahead, 21-0 in the 1st quarter the game is over. Jordan James isn't going to break off a 60 yard run, but 60 in 8 plays is just fine to me. This year's team has me more excited about Ducks football than I've ever been. Ohio State @ Oregon was one of the most exciting games in college football this season. Neither team scored 40. Points doesn't equal excitement to me. Getting the key first down, stopping the other team on 3rd down. A sack, tackle for loss, all those make a game exciting. Tulane is averaging more points per game than Oregon is.

The SEC often had half of the 4 team format, they're having trouble seeing why it isn't the same with 12.

It is telling that Prime and Colorado get a lot more coverage than undefeated Indiana and Cignetti.

Tennessee gets concerning Nico Iamaleava injury update for Georgia clash CLUTCHPOINTS.COM Tennessee takes on Georgia on Saturday night, and quarterback Nico Iamaleava is still working his way back from injury.

The upside in this "fill in the blank" with a coach article is that wasn't a quote from Finebaum and still more proof of how great Danno is doing at Oregon.

Couldn't agree more. "The grass isn't greener" in the NFL. Lanning sure looks like he's loving it here every day, the NFL is a business. Nothing about coaching an NFL team is like it is coaching a college team, and he has Oregon right where he wants it, and he wants to keep it there for a long time. The last thing he would do if the Ducks won the Natty this season is say, "Okay, I'm outta here!"

Speaking of pundits, Cowherd just finished saying, “I think Oregon is the best team in the country...but I pick Ohio State to beat Texas in the championship game." At least he didn't say USC,

The key here again is the writer says "could" Oregon’s window to win a national championship could close sooner than you think FANSIDED.COM Dan Lanning could be lured to the NFL after this season and if he leaves Oregon, so do their title hopes; if he doesn't win one this...

I get it that a lot of fans aren't excited about a team that can't get to 40. Yeah, they win, but where's the explosion? tomato-tomahto is the only way I can put it in this forum. If being 10-0 is boring, like "Happy" just posted, I'll take it year after year. The explosion plays are great, being up 42-10, at halftime was fun. But I'm enjoying this team and season more than any I can remember.

Not a good time to be going 1-11, if they fail again next season they could do long-term damage to the program This just brings back all the talk about Taggart, FSU and Oregon. Of course, he left Oregon to go to FSU. FSU is a destination school. a blueblood, a team with a future. Yep.

No doubt. Should we have any sympathy for an SEC team, ever? Indiana is 10-0, but their strength of schedule is No.100, the Hoosiers are in the Playoffs, Texas, who lost to Georgia is No.53 in SOS, and are in the Playoff's. Georgia is 7-2 but are No.1 in SoS. They're currently on the bubble. If it's the Committee's job to get "the Best Teams", it has to look farther than the win-loss record.

Personally, I love the idea. When I was a kid, the Cowboys were my favorite team. But when Jerry Jones bought them, I dropped them like a rock. As far as I'm concerned, Prime and Jerry would be perfect together.

No doubt it's better. The Championship game will be over at around 8:45 here, approaching midnight in the east. The famous "Heidi" game wouldn't have been a problem in the left coast. NFL games start at 10:00 AM & 1:00-1:25 in the west.
