Now, Tomuhini Topui is a Rivals 4-Star who Oregon competed with offers from Georgia, Michigan, Texas, Notre Dame, USC, and Washington! Tomuhini Topui | DuckSportsAuthority N.RIVALS.COM Tomuhini Topui - 2026 4 Star Defensive tackle for Mater Dei (Santa Ana, CA) on Rivals.com

We are currently No. 2 on Rivals, and again....Rivals is always tougher. But the team ahead of us simply has more recruits at the moment, and may end up losing some of them!

But wait! There's more! He continues to email me, without realizing that I was a supreme troll in my youth, and that I spar with violators who get banned on a regular basis. I could do Master Class on trolling, and was going to unload on him, but refrained, as you never know how wacko they are. But I did tell him to, "Try to beat Michigan." (I supposed I should not lecture others on being more noble?)

Pretty incredible to get to watch...wowsa!

If you can believe it....I got FIVE emails from a Buckeye fan claiming how the officials screwed Ohio State from a field goal and winning. Then I reminded him of how the officiating expert at the NBC studios admitted that the interception in tOSU's first drive should have been called as such. So you can have your field goal, and you still should have been down another four points. But hey! Emailing a random Oregon fan five times is not pathetic at all!

Great article Jordan, and after watching all the reaction by the talking heads on TV...I received the impression that the traditional powers-that-be at the B1G welcome Oregon's brand and all the eyeballs to the conference, but I also got the impression that we, "need to know our place." And it sure as heck is not at the-head-of-the-table! But come December...it just might be!

When people learn that Oregon out-rushed the Buckeyes, and realize what that means on BOTH sides of the trenches…perceptions will change.

OceaniaDuck! The final was 32-31 as you know... His prediction of 31-30 was only a total of two points off, and there were a bunch of people who were three points off--but he nearly nailed it perfectly. Congrats to OceaniaDuck! We had 28 predict an Oregon victory, and 17 predict an Ohio State victory...the most for an opponent ever. The Ducks our-rushed AND passed for more yardage than Ohio State? Whew! Yes, I know this Pinned Post is in red, but it is a benign color to me now.

The bad thing about the Buckeye fans at Autzen? So damn many of them. The good thing about so many Buckeye fans at Autzen? Many bought season tickets for nothing....UO Athletic Department says, "thanks." And they have tales to tell when they get home that will increase our audience on television, and at Autzen in the future!

MOST....FUN....EVER.

The KING of the one-liners does it again....

I was aghast at the slanted narrative presented in the telecast, as it was clearly from the "Old-Money" of the B1G. It was explained as if it was primarily meant as an Ohio State game! Good Duck plays were often "mistakes" by Buckeye players, without proper context. They were often Buck-plaining to the audience as to what just happened from the Ohio State perspective. You could tell they knew Ohio State would prevail, and frankly were surprised that Oregon could hang this long with the obvious next national champion. Right? They finished the telecast with Buck-splaining how the game should have gone, and when they signed off with, "Oregon...welcome to the B1G?" I wanted to answer back... No...B1G...Welcome to OREGON!

Let's continue it in new threads!

I've never seen so many on the forum predict against Our Beloved Ducks! That and nearly ALL the media...even Herbie! Let's continue the after-game discussion!

Where is that second tranquilizer?

Those Bird-Bombs by Gabriel were incredibly accurate! What a half...it could/should be more, but this team knows it is worthy as the nation is learning...

What a bizarre game. I'm going to need a tranquilizer to make it...

My Duck-Buddies....USC had egregious pass-interference committed against them TWICE in their last series. The B1G officials refuse to call it, even when it is right in front of them. Why have rules then?

Here we are my Duck-Buddies, the thread for pondering 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 discourse. Discussion of negative is fine, but don't vent on us! 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 when things don't go well for Our Beloved Ducks. Let's Have Fun Posting During the Game!

Both backup right guards are STILL out, and we will most likely not see Burch.

Some dandies out there! Red River Rivalry, and the Huskies at Iowa! We do NOT discuss the Oregon game here, as we will have a separate GameDay thread for our game, but all the others out there in CFB in this thread. (I will delete posts about the Oregon game, as we need to keep the discussions separate) Do provide score updates when you can, as well as your thoughts of what you saw.

What are you thinking about their show, their impressions and predictions? I thought the opening was very generous to Oregon...

Yikes. Cam Rising was coming off injury, and was awful. ASU wins 27-19!

I am surprised at the talent level in the lower half of this conference. When I watched Washington against Northwestern, it was very apparent that Washington had better talent across the field, while being in a rebuild! And Northwestern now beats Maryland in a big way? Pretty surprised at these bottom half teams.
