Let’s Do It: GameDay Thread vs. Washington!
David Marsh replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Also... It looks like Washington players really lead with their helmets all the time. -

High Anxiety: What Sedative Are YOU Taking for the Game?

I will probably exile myself into the basement for the game... right now I'm feeling pretty good. -
Disgusting: What Washington Fans Are Predicting...
David Marsh replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
So... Apparently our worst game of the year against Texas Tech which was game 2 and playing on a field that with over 100 degree heat... Is a worse win (a win by 8 where we cover the spread) than the Huskies worst win against Arizona where they win by 7. I think if Shough stayed healthy TT would be ranked by season's end ... But not at this rate. Arizona... They're better than most give them credit for... But they aren't a world beater. Listening to them amp up their Zona wins sounds like they won a top 15 match up this year... They didn't... It will be a miracle if Zona makes a bowl game this year. Neither team has played "anyone" at this point. But it's also in how you dispose of your lesser opponents matters. Both teams have done a decent job of not letting teams stick around. Both have had a scare on the road. But I still think the Ducks have more going for them. I won't claim to know their team better than Husky fans but they really do claim to know our team better than us which is silly. -
Famous FishDuck Keys to Beating the Huskies
David Marsh replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I would say the offense this year hasn't restricted Nix's legs but has opted not the feature them as much. He still runs when he has open lanes to do so and there are still loads of plays where he reads the defense to determine if he keeps the ball or hands it off. The biggest difference is that there are fewer plays being called designed for him to keep it and run. He also has a solid group of receivers and fantastic pass protection so he can sit back and pick a defense apart with his arm rather than his legs. I do see him running for some positive yardage this game but if the protection is there he'll happily throw the ball all day. -
In reference to the tweet on the right ... Wait... Oregon huddles? That's news to me. Have they even watched a Duck game this season? If they had they know they need to wear a diaper because of all the pants crapping they'll be doing when they see the Ducks run up the score on them.

LOOK: Eggshell Uniforms for Washington Game
David Marsh replied to Pennsylvania Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I think we wore these for the 2021 pac-12 championship game where we.were smacked by Utah a second time in 3 weeks because Mario and Co couldn't figure out how to make the offense less predictable. -
What Husky Fans Say About Dan Lanning...
David Marsh replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Our defense is completely different than last year. Also I love how Husky fans seem to think they won by like 21 last year, at least it's the way they talk about it. And they also forget that one of their players lowered his helmet into Nix's leg. Well of course they'd forget that... That would mean they wouldn't have won otherwise. If it was up to them they'd be head hunting the entire Oregon team. -

Oregon Football’s Unique Culture Is Fueling Its Success
David Marsh replied to Pennsylvania Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I feel Lanning is a bit more subtle. With Kelly and Helfrich is was all about the faceless opponent from week-to-week. This is more explicitly Oregon is going against Oregon. It's about growth and improvement and it doesn't matter who they actually play because as long as they beat their standard they'll win. It has that competive drive focused on a face.... But that face is just themselves in the mirror. -

David Marsh replied to Pennsylvania Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Fine... I think this uniform looks relatively good up close but on the field it looks dirty. Players and recruits like them so who am I to argue? -
Advanced Stat Preview: Ducks v. Husky

For starters... there isn't any red on Oregon's side of the sheet so I think that's a good thing! -
Is Oregon Flashy Enough for Bo To Win a Heisman?
David Marsh replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Stats wise Bo isn't that far off shockingly from the other two. I think the bigger problem is the highlight reel right now. And yes, I agree that Nix needs to keep working on that deep ball because he's had a few misses that were otherwise touchdowns. But that's the hard part of the deep ball ... it's probably more often it's a miss because of the throw and not anything the opposing defense did. -
Washington Picking Fights on Three Fronts
David Marsh replied to GatOrlando's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Apple? Or was there a deal with Amazon in hadn't heard about. I know Oregon was probably more flexible with the media deal as long as it assured access to the playoff. -
Washington Picking Fights on Three Fronts
David Marsh replied to GatOrlando's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Not going to lie.... I'm happy it's Washington that is the face of this. They get to be the villain in this case for the narrative's sake. -
Can We PLEASE Bring On The Vitriol And Hate!
David Marsh replied to SmithRiverDuck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Or when the Ducks played Texas last and beat Texas in the Alamo Bowl (the non-cursed one and the only Alamo Bowl we shall speak of). I want to say Oregon's defense scored more than Texas that game. -
Can We PLEASE Bring On The Vitriol And Hate!
David Marsh replied to SmithRiverDuck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Someone has been listening to the Washington media hype too much. Washington couldn't stop Arizona's run game. If this is an outright no defense shootout I think Oregon could be in a bit of trouble. But I think Oregon's defense is going to be able to create some breathing space and the offense will have time to move the ball and score. -
Is Oregon Flashy Enough for Bo To Win a Heisman?
David Marsh replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Personally I'd take a national title over a Heisman. The other thing that just hit me is that with NIL not only is Caleb Williams putting on a show on the field but he is also in so many of the add breaks too! I doubt it plays a role but his face is everywhere. Though if Oregon goes 13-0 I think Nix gets to New York at least. -
In fairness those type of games are always a mess. It was right before the first early signing period as well so you can guarantee that whatever staff was staying at Oregon was more focused on trying to save the recruiting class than prep for a bowl game that wasn't terribly good. Freeman also sat out of that bowl game too which didn't help matters. I think those bowl games are a freebie for any coach taking over. I mean Oregon did just as poorly against Oklahoma in the Alamo Bowl when Cristobal left. Granted no one on staff was going to be the next head coach but there was still plenty of talented coaches on that staff.

B1G Scheduling Approach Throws a Bone to USC.
David Marsh replied to Solar's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
It makes sense only from a game rotation to ensure that the conference has everyone playing everyone in a reasonable time frame. But there were also a lot more rivalries protected than the west coast ones. The west coast got 1.5 protected rivalries... we play our primary every year and then alternate with the LA schools. It does feel like they are protecting USC a bit. From a recruiting standpoint I think the B1G move may hurt USC more than having to deal with Oregon. It kinda opens even more of so cal up to B1G looting but probably not substantially. Oregon is going to be camped in USCs backyard for years to come regardless. -
Cristobal Has Spoiled Fans By Winning the Off-Season FISHDUCK.COM Mario Cristobal will be Oregon's head coach in 2022. The only way this doesn't happen is if he opts to leave... Felt like I needed to bring up this again... Cristobal is a pro in the off season and gets fans super excited. But once the season rolls around fans get what they get. It's kinda funny... I think fans have more fun in the off season with Cristobal as their coach than during the season itself.

I think the key difference between Lanning and Cristobal in terms of recruitment is that Lanning is recruiting players who have the correct traits to fit his scheme. Cristobal recruited physical athletes and tried to ram them into whatever scheme (or lack thereof) that he had at Oregon. A big example is the recruitment of Noah Sewell and Justin Flowe as linebackers. Sewell didn't fit as a linebacker and probably should have been developed as an edge rusher. He is built like an old school linebacker but his coverage skills were always dubious. And Flowe... well he's got incredible physical traits but lacks the mental ability for the game. He was basically pushed out by Lanning and he probably cost Zona the game against USC this last weekend. Lanning isn't chasing stars that's for sure.

Breaking: Edge Elijah Rushing Flipping to Oregon?
David Marsh replied to Pennsylvania Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Oregon never stopped recruiting... and I am sure that the B1G is far more appealing than the Big 12 which is really a secondary tier conference at this point.
