  1. Hello my FishDuck Friends, I am going to follow the suggestion of OBD Member, Dr Hilarius to determine the finalists: Actual score of 45-27, Oregon over Stanford. Delta Analysis: EastBayDuckDad Ducks 48 (delta 3) Furd 27 (delta 0) total delta = 3 Mic Ducks 45 (delta 0) Furd 24 (delta 3) total delta = 3 FG Lumber Ducks 35 (delta 10) Furd 17 (delta 10) total delta = 20 Tiebreakers: **= winner/closest in that category Actual from the Game: Turnovers: 1 Sacks: 3 Passing Yards: 164 EastBayDuckDad Turnovers: 3 Sacks: 4 ** Passing Yards: 325** Mic Turnovers: 2** Sacks: 5 Passing Yards: 375 Winner by one tiebreaker category: EastBayDuckDad Congrats to him and thus beginning this week I will apply this new criteria to determining the winner. Thanks again to Dr Hilarius!
  2. Yep. Against BYU, the Ducks only had the ball for four possessions in the first half and scored on all of them for a 24-3 lead. In the first half against WSU some called plays in the Red Zone that worked before, but did not work then. Many times it simply comes down to..."did the play work?" If if did, we as fans say nothing, but when if fails..."we have a big problem." I think Dilly has done well overall for just five games, and he is getting better. He is backing up what he said he would try to do on offense, and is returning us to the days of high-scoring again. And no coordinator is going to be perfect; what Dilly has done thus far doesn't suck.
  3. Wasn't Karl Dorrell just fired as the Buff Coach a week or so ago? The 0-5 is not attributed entirely to Sanford when he is just an interim coach.
  4. Hello My OBD FishDuck Forum Friends! What is your prediction versus Arizona? 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. I need all the data from you! 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 45-23, 3, 4, 254
  5. Another incredible Spoof by Alan...whew! There are so many jokes, so many swipes at the Wildcats that I suggest reading more than once!
  6. Yet a fellow performing pretty well for the Ducks was once a two-star receiver with only one offer and signed by Western Kentucky... Noah Whittington, 2020 Wide Receiver - Rivals.com N.RIVALS.COM The definitive source for all Rivals news.
  7. Yikes. I was quite suspicious when I searched for information on Boulton and got "no rating," and then he was not listed among our verbals for the longest time? Now he is listed....as a two-star! Bryce Boulton, 2023 Offensive Guard - Rivals.com N.RIVALS.COM The definitive source for all Rivals news. Damn, now that is a project!
  8. That is very kind of you...wow. Now I have to root for your team tomorrow!
  9. You have been a friendly Wildcat fan, but I do wish to warn you in advance to NOT come here tomorrow and read the "Saturday Spoof" article by Alan Lohner. Alan has skewered every opponent in his articles thus far this season, and his evisceration of Arizona in his article tomorrow is priceless. (I've read it already and both howled with laughter and winced) I always like to warn the nice fans in advance because if you do...
  10. And that is why you are a great Oregon fan....
  11. If UCLA and Oregon win this weekend...then perhaps ESPN GameDay will come to Eugene for our big game with Chip Kelly. But if Oregon and Utah remain undefeated in league play...then perhaps ESPN GameDay would come to Eugene for that November game! Good-or-good?
  12. We will get highly rated O-linemen with Klemm in the future, but you also do need the project players as well. As pointed out--we have done well with those projects, such as Ryan Walk for example.
  13. I do not know if this was posted before, but this article makes some superb points about how the Pac-12 Network could be a perfect fit, and an asset for a streaming company to buy. It would help us as fans as well as the buyer, and I had not thought of these points before. Good stuff to be aware of for when the decisions/announcements are made.

  14. A project, a player with upside.
  15. He has not got it all figured out yet, but is miles ahead of most new coaches and our prior coach. I give him an A- since I am delighted, and yet see extensive upside left.
  16. Great stuff Alex, and I look forward to your updates tonight! A game like is this is what Oregon needs. We will face other great passing attacks, (like UCLA next week) but those teams will be not have the weakness or two the Wildcats do. Use this as a game to improve and get better on pass defense!
  17. 1. Arizona is not the worst team in college football, not by a mile. (You could make that case for Colorado though) 2. You are welcome to do as you please, but I am a loyal fan no matter what. I have resolved to have this forum for Oregon fans through it all, as there is a reason loyalty is a virtue. 3. Oregon has a winning Baseball team for those who want to follow Our Beloved Ducks. 3. If you apply your same approach later as a Beaver fan....doesn't that mean you will be back? 😅
  18. Mic, I think you are guessing on that? Again, Coach Boles and I did extensive research on Taggart and his offense at South Florida when he came here, and I linked all the articles (above) yesterday. The offense of Taggart was one he created, (and he was criticized for being too "hands-on" at the time) and it was a combination of the original Oregon Spread, his Gulf Coast offense that included the Counter play and a little bit of Pistol that Cristobal wanted. The Oregon Football Analysis Library by FishDuck.com FISHDUCK.COM Charles Fischer of FishDuck.com introduces the Oregon Football Analysis Library of over 280 Analysis articles created on FishDuck.com over many years.
  19. And credit the offensive line for creating the holes and Dillingham for an offense that creates cut-back lanes for the RBs!
  20. When Taggart was at Oregon for one year...in the games Herbert was not hurt, Oregon averaged almost 50 points a game. Even with the other games, he still averaged more points than Cristobal. His offense was explosive and we did a number of analysis articles (below) about it. (Arroyo was the OC and Passing Game Coordinator and Cristobal was OL Coach and Running Game Coordinator, although Taggart called the plays) So yes...I would take his combo Spread/Gulf Coast offense if Dilly ran it. Fundamental Plays and their Derivatives (Mario Cristobal) FISHDUCK.COM Charles Fischer assembled many of the fundamental plays of the Mario Cristobal, Marcus Arroyo and Willie Taggart Oregon Spread Offense to share with fans. OFFENSIVE STRATEGIES (Mario Cristobal, Marcus Arroyo & Willie Taggart) FISHDUCK.COM Charles Fischer of FishDuck.com has assembled analyses about the Offensive strategies of coaches Mario Cristobal, Marcus Arroyo and Willie Taggart at Oregon. PASSING GAME of the Mario Cristobal, Marcus Arroyo and Willie... FISHDUCK.COM Charles Fischer shares analyses created by the coaches at FishDuck.com about the passing game of Mario Cristobal, Marcus Arroyo, and Willie Taggart. Many believe that Oregon would have done better under Taggart than Cristobal over those four years... Would Willie Taggart Have Outperformed Mario Cristobal? FISHDUCK.COM These are not two of your favorite people to contemplate right now, but I would ask for your indulgence and fantasizing along with me. I understand how people...
  21. He will not win the SEC, or anything major with his offense. You cannot win big without the balance of a running game, IMHO. Plus he does not burn clock, which gives teams time to mount a comeback. He had one 11 win season at Texas Tech, and three nine win seasons, and the best at WSU was 11 wins once, 10 wins once with seasons of winning nine, eight, six (twice) and three games. He is 15-14 at Mississippi State, and I aspire for more for Oregon. You can have Leach's offense, and I'll take what Dilly is serving.
  22. One of Stanford's touchdowns was a wheel route by the running back that Sewell was late/slow on...
