THAT has to be a first! As I recall, I wondered why the foul was not called on the fellow who grabbed Bittle, so he might have a point. But bizarre complaint, no doubt.

I agree with you: the edge to Ohio State, although I also agree with Jon. Your team did not have the same fire as when they played Oregon...IMHO.

Some sour grapes in that whine....

So true. What a difference it would have made... So why does Oregon get hosed in both scenarios?

AnotherOD? That was the post of the year! (2025) A little tongue-in-cheek, but creating that post takes a ton of time, and I appreciate it. It makes us think a ton about prior seasons, our heartbreaks, and our gratitude for where the program is headed. Incredible post. Thank you.

I was actually surprised at all the ticky-tac calls they made...hand-checking, barely bumping, etc. Looked like Pac-12 refs there for a bit!

On the bright side...

No, they did what I call, "announcing from a perspective," in that they were serving the larger Penn State/B1G audience. They gave us credit, but everything was explained from a PSU perspective.. Tough game, and tough comeback. We were up 14 in the first half, down by nine with six and a half minutes left and frankly--all the 'MO' was with the 'Lions. But this veteran group created a bunch of turnovers, hit some clutch threes and PSU missed some open looks at the end...and OBD prevailed. Whew!

Mental stuff. He still drops passes as he did at Oregon, and messes up on a regular basis. But I was delighted with the 1st quarter bomb, and how the TV Analysts stated three times that it was, "an Oregon-to-Oregon" connection!

We actually had four more playing on Saturday with Justin Herbert and Troy Dye playing for the Chargers, while Johnny Johnson III and Jamal Hill were playing for the Texans. More than I realized!

I am shocked...just SHOCKED!

Now that Bryce Boettcher is returning to pair with veteran Devon Jackson at inside linebacker, I'd be surprised if Oregon pursues a linebacker now.

For many....he is not a name many would know, but this article is interesting is very informative. The writer, the late Jim Maloney, wrote many superb Oregon Sports history articles for us. Jim Loscutoff: an Oregon Star and NBA Enforcer | FishDuck FISHDUCK.COM Few Oregon fans have heard of Jim Loscutoff and even fewer know much about him, yet in his first season at Oregon he averaged 10.3 points per game and 12.8… What? He averaged over 17 rebounds a game in his final season at Oregon and won SEVEN NBA Championships with the Celtics? Whew!

$4M for a 3rd-round QB Who Led the SEC with 12 Interceptions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Think he'll figure it out?

We don’t look so good if Ohio State loses, and frankly I am concerned that they played their ‘Natty game effort in the Rose Bowl.

Every fan base is between "critical" to "brutal" of their head coach when they lose a big game. Great to see such good sports at Texas... A critical fan who cannot spell "pressure?"

Bucky and the Bucs play at 5:00 PM PST on Sunday vs. Washington and Marcus Mariota.

What he says about officials allowing Maryland to "mug" his team without calling fouls does not sound promising for us either. His warning may help the new Pac-12 teams in the B1G by letting the officials know we are on to them.

The Buckeye fans who have visited here have been fun to chat with and are quite reasonable. But Ohio State has their percentage of "Lunatic-Fringe" as below are posts during the game when things got tied up by Texas... Now you see why we have a rule in this OBD Forum against "Venting" during a game.
