No. 1 Oregon Dodged a Disaster?
Charles Fischer replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
It makes me shudder just watching for 30 seconds! -
Or the weather, I should say? How would that game have gone if...

Even if they play the Buckeyes close....what if the injuries on the Ohio State offensive line diminished their output enough for the Hoosiers to play it close, and you don't know the real level of both teams until they play other teams later? I'm sure the Committee will figure out how to get there...

2024 CFB Playoff Information, Rankings Show Results 11/12/24,
Charles Fischer replied to NJDuck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
"If you're not good enough to finish in the top-four of your conference, then you're not good enough to win the national championship." (From the SEC, Sankey article) And isn't that is the objective? To determine a National Champion, and not 'make the Playoff?' -
And who is it that requires us to have a damn game on Peacock once a year?

Lanning’s Most Crucial Defender is ALMOST Finished…
Charles Fischer replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Oh, if we had them last year....who knows how far we could have gone with Bo Nix? Burch underperformed last year and dealt with injuries, while Matayo, Tuioti and others were still just newbies learning the ropes. This year's defensive line would have been the difference to win those close games with the Huskies. Danno knew that, thus why he got them, and really helped the development of the young-guns to flourish. I've gotta think that Tosh being a former defensive lineman and D-Line coach has really helped their progress as well. -

No, you misunderstand, as we allow all opinions about the TOPIC. But if you are commenting about the opinions of other OBD members--that is off-limits. Let's look at what you wrote... ------------------------------------------------------ "I just don’t share the same angst with the ratings as they stand today…looks about right to me with two regular season games to go for most teams. What is the specific team(s) people think isn’t ranked properly? The bracket formula is what it is, it’s what everyone agreed to. That being said, their reactions to this weeks games could induce some angst for me, we shall see." --------------------------------------------------------- Did I misinterpret what you wrote? It looks to me like you are making a side-swipe at those who disagree with you. That is "Throwing Group-Shade," something we have covered often here and is in the rules as I dealt with it quite a bit. (See Rule No. 2, 2a, and 2b) If I read your post wrong--show me, and I'll apologize and own the mistake. But if I am right...then you made a mistake, and I politely asked you to not repeat it. EVERYBODY here that posts very often will muck-up once in a while, yours-truly included. Nobody wears a halo, and when we mess up--we own it, and then forget about it and move forward. If you made a mistake and are going to leave over that? Understood. My first responsibility is to preserve the civility we have here; if we allow others to throw shade on those who disagree--it turns into a burning dumpster within a month. Yes, what you wrote was mild. But I've learned that if left without a response--the behavior continues and gets worse. You enjoyed the peace that we have here, and you enjoyed that because everyone else was following our objectives of being "polite and respectful" to fellow OBD members. If you wish to debate/discuss it by email...I welcome it. charles@fishduck.com

Hello My OBD FishDuck Forum Friends! What is your prediction of Ohio State versus Indiana? Take your shot and let's have fun with it... Let's 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. And please check the other posts in this thread to prevent putting up the a score that has already been predicted. We had one week where four entries were the same score! Please follow directions, as I need all that is below for tiebreakers: --the winner --the score --the amount of turnovers Ohio State creates? --the number of sacks Ohio State records on Indiana? --the number of passing yards by the Buckeyes? My prediction is: Ohio State 34-27 1 3 188

Oregon Comes Back from Down 12 to Beat Oregon State 78-75
Charles Fischer replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
23 points and 13 rebounds for Bittle? Whew! What a confidence booster, as he knows now he can dominate inside the paint. He has really perfected an unblockable baby-hook. The Ducks have been tested and had to surge back against teams in the state, (Portland and OSU) but this experience in a hostile court will help them. Man, Brandon Angel has a smooth shot at times... Good gosh the drive to the basket by Shelstad to put us ahead by two at the end....wow what a tough shot to make! -
Geotech...I was creating space in some areas of your post, and the software popped in emojis. Not my intention, but the forum technology is malfunctioning at the moment. We understand your points, and appreciate the work put into creating the post. I am frustrated with the software mucking-up at this time, and apologize for giving your post some "decorations" that were unintended.

In this thread above and others--the case for Georgia is pretty strong, and that is what most were suggesting. Let's not comment on the reaction of others, as everyone is free to give their thoughts because we "2) do not tell others how to think or what to write." We all offer our opinions...and that is it. Thanks.

You Know What's So Cool About Oregon Being No.1 is?
Charles Fischer replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
"How cool is that?" Makes me want to DANCE! -
Oregon Received a B1G Welcome in Wisconsin
Charles Fischer replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I am still amazed by the stat of how Wisconsin did not make a single first down in the fourth quarter...which is when it matters most! -

Yes, Matayo had to catch it, and Caldwell had to block it. But how did the ball end up on so low a trajectory that Caldwell could block it? Let's take a look... Above you see Teitum Tuioti No. 44 closing in on the Badger QB... (Green arrow above) Look at the football above before Caldwell tips it....the football is NOT flying tip ahead, but laces leading? We all know a pass does not look like that, thus Tuioti DID tip it first, and lowered the trajectory for Caldwell to tip it. The interception doesn't happen without ALL THREE, but Teitum should get his kudos because it does NOT happen without his tip first!
