It's good-or-good. That is how I spin it in my twisted little mind... If the Huskies win...that is good for the Pac-12. If the Huskies lose...that is always good. Husky mascot taunting an Oregon fan in 2016...

He had kind comments for Coach Locklyn, and said that he was tough, but he appreciated it. (Whew!) Great to see running backs give credit elsewhere, as they usually make a big deal out of running through a gap created by someone else...and do most of the celebrating. That said, his moves on the long TD run were crazy.

"Nix rushed five times on Wednesday for six yards. His longest rush was six yards. Oregon needs Nix to get healthy in the offseason, but also it needs to remember the lesson learned in 2022 — protect the QB." "I’d prefer to see the Ducks use Nix more selectively in the run game next season. I thought Dillingham got a little too aggressive with Nix as a runner in the middle part of this season. Some of it was unnecessary. He’s vital to the success of the team and needs to be healthy down the stretch next season." Boy...no kidding.

My goal was 10 wins for the season because I did not know what to expect, and 10 wins is a respectable, a good team. But after your Bulldogs bit us badly--I had my concerns!

I have been writing an article to publish for tomorrow morning, and I am still shaking my head at how much better our special teams and defense can be. Yet we won 10 games with all that upside!

Here we are my friends, the thread for discussing 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 discussion. 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. Let's Have Fun Posting During the Game!

Yes, we have had a number of posts about them like right here and others.

We are targeting some more from the portal, but this is the high school LOIs I believe we are waiting on.

Hello My OBD FishDuck Forum Friends! What is your prediction versus North Carolina? 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 48-31, 2, 2, 367

When Cristobal left last year, a third of our recruiting class bailed, and Lanning fought to save what he could. We signed 17, not almost 30 and you can see that right here. The portal was vital, but not all will be here for 2023... Josh Connerly Jr. was a good one!

Trust me. There is a FishDuck article coming up about the upcoming...

Live with it? I LOVE this uniform!

Doesn't this drive coaches and the PR people crazy? Makes you want to drop-kick the freshman through the goal-posts?

I am not reporting this as fact, but passing along the thoughts of others...that are wild.

The point to me, is when you consider the value of Tosh Lupoi...it is over-the-top in recruiting. This will be the best defensive line recruited to Oregon in one year, and it is not even close.

San Diego State is fringe IMHO, and all the great San Diego players we have recruited in the past will have no need to leave home to be in the Pac-12. Meh, but I understand. SMU has a 32,000 seat stadium; do we really need another OSU or WSU who take from pie, and not enhance it? As for the others?

Mack reminds me of how Mike Bellotti would do Oregon Club lunches; he was charming and told us funny stories about the team and made everyone feel good without giving away anything.

C'mon Justin and Chargers...get it done!

I thought the more highly ranked team gets their pick of uniform? No announcement of what uniform Oregon is wearing yet...odd. Go with yellow!

Now the principal of one of the pay-sites has come through with his firm belief that Porter will commit at the All-American Bowl on January 3rd. I can taste that new recruiting record for Lanning...

No sweat--none of us wear halos here, and I've made a few mistakes recently myself. It was off-limits to me, but others can read it--so thanks for letting us know about it. You have been a great OBD member--please keep posting!

If Lanning wins the bowl game--he gets an "A" even with what I think were incredible screw-ups in two games. Why an "A?" Because a 10 win team is good, and doing that in your first year is "A" type of work.

We don't post pay-article sites. Give us a summary?
