Hello My OBD FishDuck Forum Friends! What is your prediction versus Washington? 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 as I am not going to hunt them all down. I am no longer going to PM three or four people who don't read directions each week. 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 52-31, 2, 2, 313

You have to remember that all of us here have wrote about this stuff since it began coming out in the summer of 2020, and while we may feel the same--it has been said a couple of hundred times already....

Tomorrow morning.

IMHO, Jackson Powers-Johnson will do well replacing him if need be, and I believe will be the center next year.

If the roles were reversed...what would they be saying about us? While I should not stoop to pat-them-on-the-head, it is too much fun to miss!

8:00 p.m. PT on Pac-12 Network, and if you don't get it on your set--go to the Pac-12 Network online and watch the game there. Great fun! Duck Data! Oregon starts the season as the No. 21 ranked team in the country. It’s the ninth time UO starts the season ranked. N’Faly Dante’s achieved sixth career double-double (16 pts, 10 rebounds) vs. Florida A&M. Dante has 10+ rebounds in each of his last three games dating back to last season. In addition to his double-double, Dante also notched a career-best four steals in the last game. Dante blocked 5 shots in two of the last three games, closing the season with back-to-back 10-rebound efforts. Freshman Kel’el Ware scored eight points and blocked three shots in his debut. Kel’el Ware was a McDonald’s All-American and won a gold medal with team USA U18. Freshman Kel’el Ware ranked among the nations top recruits, coming in at 6th in the final 247Sports individual rankings. UO returns three starters from last season.

Can you even believe this?

Time for a little fun in looking back at a prior article written about Washington Athletics which reveals the truth that....Washington men are NOT championship grade. Check out the proof! Husky GameDay Thread: The Men of Washington are NOT Championship Grade FISHDUCK.COM Will the truth in the title ever change? For as long as I can remember, the Husky fans are the most insufferable anywhere, while the men of Washington cannot... And you will want to check out Alan's Humor article tomorrow. Whew! A new epic article that only Alan can create...

Really good points here, because in the only game against a great foe at UCLA, we saw Penix throw some bad interceptions that were the difference. And this Autzen crowd is going to be screaming for purple blood... Sounds like an epic game coming!

The grass is greener elsewhere? I think this article backs up EastBayDuckDad's assertions pretty well. I am tempted to offer anyone a big bet that both he AND Dilly stay... Dan Lanning: "The grass is damn green in Eugene." - Footballscoop FOOTBALLSCOOP.COM Oregon's first-year head coach addressed a report linking him to the Auburn vacancy.

There are many expected predictions with disrespect to the Ducks below, but there are a number of surprises as well. All entertaining! "High scoring game. 45-42 Dawgs." "D*cks 56 Dawgs 31 Huskies win 38-27. In high profile game, Bo Nix reverts to form and throws 2 picks." "UW 41, Quacks 45. Stranger things have happened but odds are Washington likely does not have enough talent to keep up with the majority of pay for play teams." "UW will need to keep the offense on the field with slow dink and dunk passes if there's no run game option plus turnovers to have a chance." "45-33 ducks. We have the right coach to guide us though in the future. Coach DeMan will be successful vs the ducks down the road." "49 - 35 Ducks...we are not there....YET" "Ducks 40-20 I'm a Husky who lives in Oregon, and the Ducks are everything and more of what you think they are." "UO 41 UW 44 in 2 OT Dawgs will be barking and feathers will be flying…" "OR 59 UW 42." "Ducks 49, Huskies 31. Our defense is just not good enough at this point." "Dawgs 45 Ducks 30 Our Offense moves the ball all game on the Ducks." "Oregon 63 - Good Guys 38" "UO 42 UW 28" "42-41 Dan Lanning is distracted by the Auburn coaching vacancy. Dawgs win on last second field goal." "Ducks 48 - UW 21. It’s over by half and we score in 4th to make it look better but it’s a nothing game for us this year." "Them 44 Good Guys 27" "Oregon 42 Dawgs 35" Cam McCormick in 2018! "Oregon 48, UW 27 Oregon at home is tough." "Oregon 38 UW 24 Oregon has been destroying teams. If we don’t turn it over we have a shot. UCLA took us apart. They are more talented than us." "D*cks 49 - Dawgs 28" "UO 38- UW 21 I don’t think in the near future CKD will be losing many games against them , but unfortunately this year they will. I hope I’m wrong." "Score prediction: Ducks 49-31" "42-32 Oregon. They are on a roll right now. Our offense will keep up for a while but our improved Defense will get exposed six ways to Sunday." "Oregon 45 UW 27 I unfortunately agree w/ much if the sentiment here. On the road with Oregon's O firing on all cylinders , I see a game similar to the late Sark/Early CP years in terms of score." "49-35 Ducks. I see the Dawgs scoring a lot but getting 2 less stops than Oregon in a game where neither team punts more than twice since both defenses are pretty ugly. There are going to be a lot of points scored this game. My two hopes are this: 1. Dawgs are really really bad against the pass but Oregon is worse 2. Bo Nix is prone to having some bad games at really bad times and he hasn't had his bad game yet."

It can be Googled I'm sure, but his contract has tons of bonuses for performance. If he wins the Pac-12 and goes to the Playoff--he will end up with quite the first year salary after all the bonuses.

Since we are not creating a ton of turnovers--the Oregon offense not having many really helps our chances of winning. Great stat--thanks.

Good one! Kalen DeBoer - Football Coach GOHUSKIES.COM Success has come consistently and quickly at every stop in the career of Washington football coach Kalen

The long-term impact of your words is immeasurable for Oregon fans. It is fun watching Duck football now, and will be even better with the Lanning/Lupoi defense fully installed in future years.

Agreed. It is hard to explain Xs and Os fully, yet make it easy. He has a knack for that, fortunately for us!

Yes, Post No. 14 above has the link.

The 7-Jeff? I LOVE it! Dazed....you are amazing, as NOBODY in the Oregon media is providing analysis as you are to FishDuck. I am very grateful to learn from you. I am also very grateful to have advertising now in order to be able to pay the photographers well, and get GREAT ones contracted. There are a number of pictures in that article that are just killer, and adds so much. Thanks to all you readers for putting up with the advertising, because it truly allow me to get great photographers and pay the bills of both sites.

It is weird the way some years you have such unforeseen elements in your path to the Playoffs. Having two undefeated B1G teams, an undefeated B12 team with an upstart Tennessee and even an LSU that could mess things up for you is quite a barrier. But getting help with a two-loss Alabama and having Clemson knocked out--is not something we would have ever foreseen. And now the biggies....to have FOUR Pac-12 teams in the top 15, FIVE overall in the top 25 is astounding, and we have the schedule lined up to benefit from wins over these ranked teams--provided we get it done. And...we have more love from the ESPN Playoff Crew than ever before. Sure Rece is Rece, but I have never heard Joey Galloway pump the Ducks like this. Even Bear and Dinich are on the Oregon Trail, and having Herbie back feels especially good again. We have a real shot at the Playoffs because of the good luck of the year, but boy...it is not something anyone could have predicted!

Completely agree.

Is Lanning's New Game-Plan...Chip Kelly 2.0? FISHDUCK.COM Oregon just beat the master, and his offense. How can you say the Ducks are CK 2.0? This is a natural question, and I would even suggest that this short article...
