I am not worried, as we have a perfect schedule for proving ourselves, and moving up if we keep winning.

Let's just say that I have plenty of content over the next two weeks before we play UCLA, but something I want to point out is how left guard No. 50 Nishad Strother, is blocking incredibly well. He is shielding/sealing the defenders inside superbly with left tackle Josh Conerly No. 76 on some plays, and with center No. 72 Poncho on others.
I pointed this out in my analysis on Friday, and I am seeing more of it today. Matthew Bedford is not a shoo-in for starting when he returns, as I really like what I see of Strother's run-blocking thus far. More later...

Yes, we have some B1G teams looking better than expected, and on our schedule such as Michigan State(3-0) and in particular Illinois (3-0) is looking impressive.
It is kind of exciting, a new conference, and new teams to learn about in anticipation of playing OBD.

I saw Bedford in for a couple snaps with Dante Moore. There was one angle you could see his name on his jersey.
But that was it.
The coaches got some live snaps under him but weren't going to risk him for the game.
And that would make sense with two more weeks to heal before the next game.
I just confirmed that Harper was at right guard, and Strother was at left guard on Oregon's first offensive play. On the second play, an Inside Zone, James ran right behind the block Strother put on the linebacker for a nice gain.
So many of the sportswriters out there are NOT as good as the All-Volunteer FishDuck Staff!

I will be watching the game again today, but I believe that writer is wrong. I did not see Bedford even in the game, let alone start. I took inventory of the starters on the first series, and I thought I saw Conerly, Strother, Poncho, Harper and Cornelius...as we saw in the second half last week.
I will check back later, as I have a lot to go over on the game for screenshots, analysis plays, and notes going forward. So many good things!
No dropped ball this time...

Jordan! This is a fun read, and my apologies for it not getting published until 9:00 AM. You completed and scheduled it for much earlier, but we had a tech glitch this morning that we just got solved.
Not only is it great perspective you offer, but the pictures with all the vivid color in the background are epic.
Orange is such a benign color to me now...

Yeah...it was me. The game score was 49-14, and Mr. FishDuck guessed 48-13 for only being two points off in total! This is my first victory in what...three years of doing this, and I get to place my prediction first?
What is the saying about a blind-Duck finding something...?
I really felt our offense would gradually get better, and it is beginning to happen. Fantastic second half by the defense, and I am not sure that a bye is a good thing at this time? This was an important confidence game, and another immediately would help to solidify it, IMHO.
Congrats to DanLduck who came within five points with his 51-17 prediction, as we did not have that many as close this time.
BTW...we pulled out a play today from the fabulous 2010 'Natty run, and it will be fun to review later!

The offensive line that was primarily used in the second half last week, is what we started today and played with, thus much better consistency. Again, some great sealing blocks by Strother, superb kick-out blocks by our tackles, and it was cool to see Poncho flying across the field and toward a defender who had to pause to avoid getting smashed. Hence he could not tackle Limar on the screen TD!
So many items to discuss, and truly a wonderful "Get-Well" game.
Was that a perfect second half? Defense pitches a shut-out, and the offense scores 27?

So many things to say, and I must admit that so much of the gnashing of teeth by OBD members in the early part of the game on the GameDay thread was pretty funny in retrospect.
I'm glad that they got the wide receivers going today as I hoped, and what are YOUR impressions?

To me, the strategy for Oregon's defense in this game is simple.
My belief is that our defensive backs can match-up with Beavers receivers, thus we can pack the box to stop their running game, and go one-on-one with their wide receivers.
I do not think OSU will outscore us in that scenario... but do our coaches feel the same way?

This injury report posted on another thread is significant!
Practicing this week was:
--Matthew Bedford, guard
--Dave Iuli !!! guard
--Jahlil Florence corner
We might see some new offensive lineman combos this week!

Here we are my Duck-Buddies, the thread for pondering the actual game as it happens. Let's discuss before, and during the game!
The vast majority of you are GREAT in this thread, but you must remember that this forum is different, as we require civilized discourse. Discussion of negative is fine, but don't vent on us!
Rule No. 31d covers GameDay Thread Conduct, and it is not hard for the vast majority of us--just a tiny few who need to reign it in when things don't go well for Our Beloved Ducks.
Let's Have Fun Posting During the Game!
Sorry Beavis, it is going to CONTINUE...

We do NOT discuss the Oregon game here, as we will have a separate GameDay thread for our game, but all the others out there in CFB in this thread. (I will delete posts about the Oregon game, as we need to keep the discussions separate)
Do provide score updates when you can, as well as your thoughts of what you saw.
Anyone watch the 31-7 victory by Kansas State over Arizona? Sounds like a butt-kicking....

What is laughable is Pac2 used the $ they stole from Pac12 to buy….wait for it….Fresno St., Colorado St, Boise St., and SDSU?! And to remain solidly in G5?!
What got them into this mess was bad management over the decades by their athletic department.
And now with the above stupid strategy?

Hello My OBD FishDuck Forum Friends!
What is your prediction versus Oregon State? Take your shot and let's have fun with it...
Lets 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.
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
48-13

Holy Crap! My Replay Study So Far Shows...
in Our Beloved Ducks
Well, I’m going to politely disagree. When they played Picard and Poncho…that told me they did not want to play Strother. They also indicated to me that they weren’t confident in Strother when they recruited Bedford, because we already had Harper returning at left guard where he had been most of his career.
I do not think they had confidence in Strother, thus why they did not want to play him much, but I believe he has proven himself now.
