Both are good rankings for this juncture in the season, and I certainly believe both will be moving up! Can't wait for Will Richardson to return!

Kenjon Barner also is a fav... One of my favorite photos ever due to the content and the richness of color in the background...and that we won that game!

Good point, as Oregon did not lose a single verbal in the best class ever; those who said they would sign before the Bowl game still did at signing date.

It is a shame, but we are starting over at QB next season and that really hurts the upside of the team due to the severe learning curve of actual game action. The coaches will have to go through quite a process to find out who can play. I know that many of us like Anthony Brown, but he had a receiver open at the goal line....and over-threw him. We need someone who can get the job done for certain, or has the obvious upside to warrant the time, patience and errors.

So many great players to choose from, and Darron Thomas emerges for me as a leading candidate....

Finding out now that Shough is not the guy is better than finding out in the fall of 2021, so it was good to flush out weakness. If Oregon plays well next year and does well in the post-season....all is forgotten about the Iowa State game. So that perception is yet on hold, as I see it. But long after this all passes....Oregon is still the Pac-12 Champion for 2020 by beating the best that the South Division had, and nobody can deny or take that from us. Getting that championship is worth it in the end...

Every year is make or break for someone in football. Whether it is a head coach on the hot seat, a QB with a chance to start, or a veteran skill position player trying to hold off someone younger and more talented, every year brings a plethora of storylines for every team. With the benefit of hindsight we can now ... Read the full article here...

OK...you have a sense of humor that I like already!

Completely agree; I wonder how Charger fans feel?

I don't know which is better...celebrating Oregon on top or Washington looking up at us! I......AM.....Relevant!

Very cool--thanks for finding that! Pretty special...

Great example of a player having a career night and hard to stop...as the Ducks had versus UCLA. Thanks for reminding us of the Graves connection--you have to be happy for her. (Although that will help her recruiting and make the conference even tougher?)

Yep. Our rules state that we can be critical of coaches and players for decisions and performance, but we cannot get personal. In the rules as No. 26 is where I state it...

Wow...talk about stunners! Not something anyone would have predicted...by a mile!

Every time this happens...I think of that day in Autzen.

I don't know why...but I don't think we have much of a chance on this one. Gut feel...

Some more information about the new candidates is in this article.

C'mon....you gotta admit this is funny! Another reason I love Puddles...

I know that many are not a fan of John, but he does bring up some great points about the issues the conference and CFB faces. This is a very interesting article about a former Duck selling all his gear to make some money--and other fallout ramifications. Drayton Carlberg (No. 90) created this fumble against Cal...and recently has sold the jersey he is wearing!

I am still rooting for Zach Arnett, although I am sure MC will bring in someone who is very talented...

I was at that Toilet Bowl game as well, and was sitting with a buddy who was an OSU alum and we both left unhappy! Fun post, and thanks FIC.

RatherBe, you have quickly become one of my favorite posters because of your research, writing and the reasonable approach given to your posts. Please keep offering your thoughts...

We are critical analysis fans, and apparently....so are you, because your analysis above is superb explaining the weaknesses and what needs to be done. You disagree with some of us and offer solutions, and we love that here. Great posts!
