The winner was Canvasback! The final score was 21-7 with one turnover, one sack, and 132 yards of passing. Massduck had a score of 27-6, and was off by only seven total points, but so was Canvasback with his 28-7 predicted score. So they were tied, and now we look at tiebreakers... Massduck predicted three turnovers, while Canvasback predicted two. Canvasback was closer and won that tiebreaker. Massduck predicted two sacks, while Canvasback predicted four. Hence Massduck was closer, and won that tiebreaker. Now we come down to the passing yards; Massduck predicted 210 yards, while Canvasback predicted 185, and thus was closer and won by a raindrop! Congrats to Canvasback! And thanks to all who played, as I thought we were going to have quite a few tied up and bunched around the final score. A Canvasback Duck...

We sure have a "thing" with playing the Badgers, as both years we were highly favored, but they played us very tough.

Wisconsin was dialed into our major running plays, and this is a good scouting shout-out to the offensive staff in their preparation. There was a ton to be disappointed about, yet Our Beloved Ducks prevailed. When we needed to run the ball...we did. Your post-game thoughts?

It is sunny at the moment in Eugene, but gosh....it was pouring buckets at noon. I am concerned that it will impact attendance and our home-field advantage, and will there be wind and rain during the game? Weather report I last saw said...yes. "Storms likely for several hours"

Here we are my Duck-Buddies, the thread for pondering the actual game as it happens. Let's discuss before, and during the game! I have made a major change in how we will moderate our GameDay threads. Bottom line, is that you will be allowed to spew your frustration, to vent, as you wish. But Note the Parameters: --This is for GameDay threads only; you have to behave in the regular forum threads as in the past. --You cannot take shots at those who disagree with you, just like in the forum during the week. Remember how we discussed this upfront in this thread. Let's Have Fun Posting During the Game!

We'll be adding more to that list! Davison blocking for Hill to score!

Quite a few good games today, and let's discuss in this thread! This game is "good-or-good," because a Husky win would help our SOS, but an Illini win would help the conference with a postseason candidate.

From an On3 analyst about Braylon Hodge... "Braylon Hodge was a big upwards mover in our September Rivals300 update. After going through his early senior film, it's easy to see why Oregon and other programs made him a priority this fall. Hodge plays fast and shows the speed to run sideline to sideline. He triggers quickly and looks to have quality instincts. He's a physical striker and brings some pop at the point of attack, which is obviously key for LB prospects. Looks pretty comfortable playing in space. Overall, it's easy to see him as a good fit in Dan Lanning's defense. Added bonus that he's from the West region and ranks as Rivals' top LB out West."

Check these highlights, as this is looking even more promising...(only 30 seconds)

The official roster lists Dante Moore at 6'3" and 206 lbs., and Akili Smith Jr. at 6"5' and 231 pounds...has he grown since this measurement? If quarterback doesn't work out--he could be a heck-of-a-Fullback or Tight End? Or a heck-of-a-running quarterback!

No worries, USC has so much room because of all the portal transfers out last year. I have all the confidence in a new wave leaving in a few months!

This moves Oregon up to No. 3 in the nation for the 2026 class. Note we have the fewest commits in the top-9, and the best average.

Braylon Hodge is a Rivals 4-Star, and the No. 9 ranked linebacker in the US. He is ranked the No. 1 player in Colorado, and was offered by Texas, Michigan, Iowa, and Missouri.

30Duck predicts... Oregon 34-3 2 TOs 1 Sack 267 passing yards

Hello My OBD FishDuck Forum Friends! What is your prediction of Oregon versus Wisconsin? Take your shot and let's have fun with it... Let's get these predictions started, and remember I look for the differential between your predicted points with both teams from the actual points. I will use the tiebreaker information when needed, so provide all the data below! Entries without ALL the information are invalid, and predictions on other threads don't count. We Have Two New Rules: If two winning scores are the same? The first one who posted wins, automatically. TerryM9 gets 42-6 locked in every time as his. (I love this guy!) Please follow directions, as I need all that is below for tiebreakers: --the winner --the score --the amount of turnovers Oregon creates --the number of sacks Oregon records on the opposing team --the number of passing yards by the Ducks. My prediction is: Oregon 41-10 2 3 281

I've never had a backlink order like that one, but I take them all to help pay the site bills!

Omigosh! How can you not love this?

Obviously we would not need him this week, and then we have a bye week, and if he could join us for the final four games--get the rust off before the Playoffs...this could be a game-changer. So three wide-outs of Stewart, Dak, and Bryant/Benson along with "The Beast" Sadiq? If you are an opponent defensive backfield...that is a scary group to face.

OK...while I may not agree with everything here....that is funny and GREAT. Jimmy, you are a new OBD forum member, and I hope you continue to post because that first post is a DANDY! Welcome to the Our Beloved Ducks forum, as I think you will fit in just perfect here!

Tony Vitello built a winner in a short time, and was 2024 National Champion at Tennessee, and he just got the manager job for the SF Giants! The Athletic named a couple of candidates to replace him with the 'Vols, and the first one was the Assistant HC, and then Waz. Below is what was written about them. Mark Wasikowski, Oregon Few have built more consistent winners. Since taking over in 2020, Wasikowski has led Oregon to five straight NCAA Tournaments and back-to-back super regional appearances. His Ducks went 42-16 this season with a 22-8 mark in the Big Ten. A former Purdue head coach and Florida and Arizona assistant, Wasikowski is known for fast turnarounds and strong player development, and could bring an immediate national profile. Josh Elander, Tennessee associate head coach The in-house favorite. Players and alumni immediately flooded social media with calls for Elander, who’s been Vitello’s right-hand man since 2017 and was promoted to associate head coach in 2022. A TCU alum and former Arkansas assistant, Elander has been central to Tennessee’s recruiting surge and clubhouse culture, and would provide continuity at a time of transition. I think they will go with Elander, but this does mean that every major college baseball HC job that comes available...

Coach! Great to see you post, and do share more observations over time. Love it.

Jon! I was humming it!
