Charles Fischer

I would like to think that you are quite right, and great to have you join us. Do post your thoughts often Troy, and WELCOME!

I think the punter was in on it, because he pretended to be jumping high for the snap and then he looked behind him...great video and replay.

A big component in this is our defense....why? Because if nothing is open, then he can have the confidence to throw it away on 3rd down and not try to force something--when our defense is holding the Bulldogs. I sincerely believe that running the ball on the Ducks is going to be harder than Georgia thinks. If this comes down to a "who can pass the ball better" type of game...might that favor Our Beloved Ducks? A BIG stuff on 3rd down....

While I agree with you Alex, that establishing the run is important....I really don't think we will be able to against Georgia. Not a slight on our offensive line, because the 'Dawgs did hold the 'Tide to 18 points recently.... Fun article--thanks!

That is a GREAT flow chart....it nails us fans to a "T!"

A feature I really do like is how the ads are placed in between posts, and not in them. As we scroll, we have a second or so before the ad loads, and we have the picture in the background and can see more of it. Very cool to me!

Hello My FishDuck Friends, There has been a ton of change in this forum, and that always messes us all up to a degree. (It's natural) However, I would invite you to establish three new habits that will benefit you and this community: --Use the new FishDuck Feed at the top, as it is an incredible resource. I was waiting for a restaurant meal, and having it there 24/7 between today's and yesterday's listings to read Oregon Sports News and articles is so darn handy. Time to blow? It is always there, and today's articles will always be a Pinned Topic at the top. --Read an article out of the 'Feed that stimulates a thought from you? Be a sport and copy the URL of the article and start a new thread in this main forum area. Post the article and start the discussion with your opinion on it, as it would be fun to have more of that again. --Pass the FishDuck Feed onto other Duck fans; most people do not care for a forum like we do, but EVERY Duck fan needs the FishDuck Feed....right? A BIG thanks to Pennsylvania Duck, (She is killing-it!) NJDuck, HawaiiDuck, Tandaian,....and so many others. They are making the FishDuck Feed an important feature of the site, a tremendous benefit for us all. Over 100 articles curated one day recently, and while we don't need to read that many each day....it is cool to scroll through and see which ones are interesting to you. Establish new OBD habits! Gotta love this community, Charles Eleven years ago right now....my beloved Abbie and I were making Oregon Football Videos.

Good gosh...l am amazed at how many people don't follow simple directions. Entries without all the information requested in the first post of this thread are invalid.

If you go for it on the 40 and blow it, and then give a shorter field to the opponent, then, “the coach is a bum.” This comes down to the classic, “if the play works, then he’s brilliant.” Most coaches would punt and put them deep and make them work for it. Rich Brooks would say, “let’s win it with Defense!”

That is the BEST compliment, and it is so appreciated. I love the community!

The tweet was disappearing for many, so I added the whole article where Oregon looks impressive.

Hello My OBD FishDuck Forum Friends! No prizes, but let's see who can be the closest! Take your shot and let's have fun with it... Lets get these predictions started and remember I look for the spread with then the closest score that has the spread correct. The data I need from you is: (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) Please follow directions, as I need all that is below: --the winner --the score, and the tiebreaker information needed from each of you is... --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 guess is: Georgia 23-13, 2, 4, 221 I believe it will be low scoring and Oregon will be in it until late 4th quarter. Both defenses are superb, as the biggest surprise will come from the defense of the Ducks, and in the end the experience the Bulldogs have in running the Mint defense will be the difference. Tomorrow we will have an extraordinary humorous/skewering Saturday Spoof of the Bulldogs by Alan Lohner that you will want to get up early to read and pass along to your friends. We will also have a GameDay thread for those who want to discuss the game as it is happening.

This is not your father's Oregon football team...some blue-bloods below us in the rankings! (And yes, I thank Mario Cristobal for that) 2022 247Sports Talent Composite: Oregon has the top roster in the Pac-12 SATURDAYOUTWEST.COM Oregon has the most talented roster in the Pac-12 and a top-10 roster nationally. Three other Pac-12 teams land in the top 25 of the new Talent Composite.

This is interesting stuff, and I believe it ultimately helps Oregon fans. Canzano has dug out stuff nobody else has, and I did not realize so many schools wanted to join us. Canzano: Pac-12 busy fielding inquiries from expansion candidates WWW.JOHNCANZANO.COM More than a dozen schools have reached out.

Actually it originally comes from Kirby Smart, and Lanning embraced and learned it. And again--the objective of this series is to explain the defense and I will pull from the entire season, and it is not just about this game. For ages...football teams faced each other with the same offenses and defenses...such as the "I" on offense with a 4-3 on defense, and the Spread versus the 4-2-5, and tons of other examples. Every offense and defense works, but it depends upon the right talent to implement it and the right coaching. So yes...they both know what each is doing, but that has happened with coaches for a long time. They may know what each is doing, but not when and that is the key, IMHO.

The good news to this is....the QBs have to stick around, so that means if Bo can't do the job or gets hurt...we have talent in relief. This is big, IMHO.

If you have questions about why we added advertising on both sites, then do read this short post explaining. We are getting things refined with it, as we actually had ads inside of posts originally on the forum, and then yesterday afternoon they were being placed in between posts, which I think is a ton better. I like how with some of the open space between posts (due to the ads) we can see bits of the background picture if you are on laptop or desktop. I will admit that the ads are a bit congested on mobile, and the page is not loading as fast as I'd like. Again...we are working on that. For laptop/desktop...you see a big banner ad at the top placed right on top of my background photo, and we are going to be tweaking that so we can see both. Again, sorry to do this, (bringing in ads) but I've incurred thousands of dollars in additional, unplanned expenses with the two sites. I do appreciate your tolerance. If you have conflicts going on with your screen--weird stuff happening....please post here or email me and let me know: what kind of devise, (mobile, laptop, pad or desktop) the operating system, and the browser you are using. I am sincere in trying to get this right. Email is charles@fishduck.com My thanks to you all, Charles

In an article in this mornings Eugene Register-Guard, it reports that Justin Flowe was at 246 pounds last year in the only game he played where he had 14 tackles, cost a fumble, and was the Pac 12 defensive player and freshman player of the week. Quite the start! But now they report him at 220 pounds, and this really fits with the lighter faster profile that Lanny wants for his mint defense. He should really be able to cover sideline to sideline now!

What is unique this time is the yellow face mask, and it is a nice contrast. As for Apple Green? I will always prefer this rich color of green...

He really does, as Sewell is ideal at Mac, and the Money position was made for Flowe and Bassa. The size/talent of DJ Johnson and Brandon Dorlus are perfect for the new 4i technique, so yes...it is not like we have to go out and recruit the talent needed for the defense. We're ready!

Good. No black, silver, grey or any other that is not our team colors. Although I am surprised we are wearing a home uniform; are the Bulldogs wearing their red uniform? Oregon Ducks unveil new uniforms for showdown vs. Georgia Bulldogs DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Oregon will be showing up in Atlanta with style. Check out these new uniforms the Ducks will be wearing vs. Georgia.

There has to be a "most interesting man in the world" joke in there somewhere...
