  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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..
  4. Pretty sure Lanning is resting him. He's on the sideline with the helmet on walking around.
  5. Lanning is definitely resting players at this point. But I don't feel this game has been put away enough to warrant it.
  6. That was definitely roughing the passer. That ball was long gone..
  7. Is this game over yet? This is just awful to watch right now.
  8. 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.
  9. Ducks definitely off this game. So much for my hope for breaking 40 this week.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. And the commentators keep saying that the timeout was worth it because they thought it might be a fake punt. Umm.... They had the 2 min timeout and the situation DIDN'T change. How were they not already prepared for that?
  13. But he cannot win either.. And he can lose if more players decide they want out.
  14. UCLA knocked out Iowa tonight (Friday) and they've been on a bit of a tear lately. They have won their last three games against Nebraska, Rutgers and Iowa. They have a 4-5 overall record and are ahead of USC in the B1G and tied with them for overall record. Furthermore, UCLA has three very winnable games for them left in the season... At Washington, v. USC and v. Fresno State. They could very well go 3-0 in those or 2-1. Either outcome gets them bowling. The Bruins have started to put something together in the back half of this season. And who would have thought that the worst team coming from the Pac-12 to the B1G would be USC? Certainly not Trojan fans.
  15. Personally I've been disappointed with the slate of Heisman candidates this year. Even Gabriel seems like a step down from Nix last year. Not a big step mind you but a step. As for Travis Hunter. Colorado will get a bowl game regardless. All the playoff guarantees is one more game. I didn't put don't a proposed date to move the Heisman because I'm not sure. It could be something like January 3rd... Let bowl season and the early rounds of the playoffs playout. Then vote. I don't think it should be an MVP like trophy but let's get real here. The best players are probably going to make the playoffs and if they don't they're making a bowl game.
  16. I want to say that even against Ohio State by default there were a lot of run plays going to the left of their defense. I think there is a natural flow behind Connerly in particular there. Hopefully we get a good game out for Rodgers this weekend against Maryland to help build him up. He's going to be needed next year at the very least.
  17. Just as a fan, I was happy they got that last touchdown. I know the betting lines are great for well... betting but don't really matter in the grand scheme of the football season. It was just nice to see the Ducks score closer to 40 this game against a pretty sound defense.
  18. However, in college football since players still need to be students, a lot of teams are up and practicing in the morning because students still need to go to class. It's not perfect and I am also sure that not every individual does great with that but that is something that a team can reasonably practice for. Whereas an east coast team is less likely to start a practice at 8pm. It all has an effect on the game for sure.
  19. This will hurt the team with him gone. But Holden has himself a game on Saturday. Stewart is a massive threat and teams are treating him as such. Justius Lowe also have an incredibly good game last Saturday. And maybe even moving Whittington to receiver for a few plays would be beneficial. His production has shot up since my article about that so it would actually be to just get another solid receiver on the field. Then we might see some youngsters make the field in the next few games. If they can still preserve their redshirts all the better.
  20. Do you think that since USC had Riley that maybe they pursued joining the B1G more actively? I think the money probably would have swayed them regardless. But maybe Fox looked at USC with Riley and saw a USC program that could compete in their pet conference and would be worth the money. What I'm thinking here is thataybe the Riley hire at the end of the 2021 might have helped put the rest in motion. It certainly helped USC's brand until this year.
  21. Best part is that let's pretend for a moment that it was called incomplete. Ducks would have taken the field goal (i would have hoped) and gone up 3 points. And if you say the game strictly plays out the way it did, which it wouldn't but let's get real those arguments are their own thing. Oregon still wins and covers the spread.
  22. The best coaches learn from losing and learn quickly so they don't have to deal with it too often. Lanning doesn't like losing. No one likes losing. And what Lanning learned from losing twice last year was to build up the secondary even more. And guess what it worked. Riley fired his DC and hired a new DC not because he learned a lesson but because there was going to be a riot from the fanbase, donors and his own locker room if he didnt.
  23. The B1G royalty has been defeated by the Ducks in year one in the B1G. Beyond that... Oregon has a win streak against Ohio State at two now and a win streak against Michigan at three. Obviously these streaks predate joining the conference but always nice to extend them.
  24. I think what Lanning wants to do here is get the ball and then cap the middle eight off with a long drive that eats up 4-6 minutes of clock. Yes... A 6 min drive ends after the middle eight but it still serves the same purpose with keeping the opposing offense off the field for an exceedingly long time. The problem is that we aren't getting those drives.
