He's closed practices on previous random weeks. I'm not going to get too concerned yet.

Probably not... I don't think USC is ready to pay out Riley and I think they'll give him another year to get his act together.

Most Bama games under Saban were pretty boring too. So I'm not going to complain too much.

One of the fun things I've seen floated by Josh Pate is that there is a good to decent chance that if Colorado wins the Big 12 that Boise State might get the auto bid bye instead of a Big 13 team. Nothing in the current playoff guarantees a P4 conference an auto bid bye. So let's hope that is the case and Colorado somehow manages to get a game against Oregon so Lanning can obliterate them again.

Just remember everyone... These betting lines are designed to make the betting services money. This feels like they are baiting Ohio State fans into taking this bet. The last time Oregon and Ohio State met they made Vegas a whole lot of money. As 80%+ of the bets were for Ohio State. Ohio State has a bigger fan base than the Ducks which makes them a far more tempting target for betting.

I think the rules guy they have on staff even said that one could go either way. The fact that the punter barely got the punt off made him a kicker rather than just a guy who dropped the football. I'm not sure there is much the coaches will say about that one because the hit came in a fraction of a second after the punt got off. I feel the only thing the defender could have done differently was not dice into a tackle and let him punt the ball. Which defeats the whole point of getting pressure on the punter. I think the coaches look back at that one and just say ... Bad luck is what it is. Easier to do in a win for sure.

He may get his wish... Does Washington have any other players Lanning might be interested in. I kinda doubt it.

We've seen Bo punt... So maybe???

I thought Oregon's thing was that it rained ceaselessly here all year round. So all of the sudden we're bad at rain? Also... Basically what I'm taking from this is .. pray Oregon plays badly. Oregon slept walked through Maryland. I highly doubt they'll be sleeping in a road trip to Wisconsin.

I've had a load of Trojan tears this year. Now it's time for the Husky tears! It also looks like we might be flipping another Washington commit as well. It's ok... Pretty sure the staff, program, fans and anyone else involved with Washington didn't want him anyways.

Michigan should have had more points. Putting Orji in at this point for them is a signal they are going to run the ball exclusively and not even consider a pass. His fumble led to Indiana scoring and that was the difference. With that said... First time this year when I've seen a common opponent between Oregon and Indiana and didn't feel bad about Oregon's win. Indiana beat Michigan State by more than we did and has broken 40 regularly this year. Meanwhile we still have only done it... Once.

This may have been a sloppy win but let's keep something in perspective. Great teams win the games they're supposed to win even if it's ugly. Oregon took care of business, other teams weren't so lucky. Miami and Georgia both lost. They played poorly and it got them. Oregon played poorly and managed to win by 21. It was not consistent but we saw flashes of this Oregon team and when that team showed itself they dominated. It just wasn't for the entire game.

Wouldn't be surprised if it's a mix of fatigue and looking ahead to next week. This was the 7th game in a row without a break. All of our conference games have come after our last bye. That bye week was critical to get players healthy but it was a long time ago now. Next week Oregon makes their last regular season road trip to Wisconsin. Wouldn't be surprised if players have more of an eye on that than the game at hand. Some changes due to injuries played a role. The offensive line wasn't as crisp but they did enough. Getting receivers settled will be key to end of season success without Tez. We have the play makers they just didn't seem to be in sync. Then I get the feeling Dan is resting a lot of players... But it just felt premature as the game wasn't fully put away yet.

Kinda felt like we had Pac-12 refs again. Our secondary has been allowed to play very very physical in the pass game and today there were loads of whistles. However, with that said they failed to adapt to the refs and they were overly graby.

The Ducks just felt asleep. I think we finally saw the let down game. The offensive line had some problems for sure. The receivers weren't as crisp and deadly as they usually are. But it felt like the team was just mentally out of it.

Probably because he was still needed to communicate the defensive packages the defense was showing. Our lead wasn't overwhelming enough to put in the second string. We needed to close out and needed his expirence to run the run only offense it's best chance. My guess anyways.

On the two occasions where he got past the initial defense his open feild speed in space was pretty good. But he can't ever seem to get past the first would be tackler. He also seems to get strung out to the sideline too easily. He also doesn't seem to be able to create contact and power power an opponent. He just goes down. I've been rather disappointed in Limar this season when he has had opportunities..

Pretty sure Lanning is resting him. He's on the sideline with the helmet on walking around.

Lanning is definitely resting players at this point. But I don't feel this game has been put away enough to warrant it.

That was definitely roughing the passer. That ball was long gone..

Is this game over yet? This is just awful to watch right now.

These refs are flag happy. A lot of these wouldn't have been called in previous games. Not saying they're not fouls... But consistent refing in the conference for sure.

Ducks definitely off this game. So much for my hope for breaking 40 this week.

Pretty sure it's alphabetical. Big Ten | Football | 2024 Standings BIGTEN.ORG Big Ten Conference 2024 Standings for Football. Also news, schedule, stats and more Looking at the B1G website if you continue down the list you see any ties are alphabetical. Michigan leads Washington even though they lost to Washington.

The Canes have been playing with their food all year. It's not a surprise that at some point their food bites back. Lanning doesn't let the Ducks play around. They're on a mission and I anticipate them to keep it that way.
