Stubblefield and Altman are the yen and yang type of coaches that can provide a team with a little more balance and cohesiveness. Not all players connect and learn in the same fashion and having a strong assistant coach, That's on the same page, helps the team to gel quicker and be more resilient. In the transfer portal era the Ducks have struggled to solidify their team in to a cohesive unit like the teams when Stubblefield was around. We've got plenty of talent to work with now's the time to put it all together a make a deep run in the tournament.

Bo's biggest problem is that He's not super flashy and made the game look way too easy by using his brain and not his feet. Not playing hero ball probably hurt his draft stock more than him being a good game manager helped him. I think with this loaded QB class he falls to the second round but than again QB seams to be a really big need for allot teams this year with the potential of 6 QB's going in the first round. Denver or Las Vegas could probably start him right away as he is one of the more NFL ready guys at the position. Personally I hope he ends up with a late round pick in the first or second so he can end up with a team that doesn't have to throw him in the fire.

Boettcher is looking really good this year as a starter. He works his tail off and has great energy that seems to carry the team. Gotta love the local kid with heart.

The ducks are so tired they can barely move. Hard fought game proud of them.

It doesn't get better than this! Nows the time to finish this Go Ducks!

Couisnard!!!

Great game, 6 points either way is the largest lead. Come out attacking halftime and step up the D.

Couisnard must really want to get into the NBA, killing it.

Yes plenty but why bother. They've all had some good games thru the season: Tracy, Shelstad, Evans, and even Rigsby and Oquindo.

46-47 Creighton 11 minutes in 2nd.

Funny moment with Dana and the two starting freshman. Getting some words of wisdom I'm sure.

34-36 Creighton at the half.

Can't count on them missing from 3 all game, need to step up the D.

Couisnard stepping up again.

Rebounding is killing us.

Shelstad's turn to get hot, I would like to see him drive a little more and keep up the intensity.

WSU doing a solid job against Iowa ST. Up 3 with 4 minutes left in the 1st half.

Go MSU beat the tar out of them.

I'm just guessing those Mississippi bulldogs aren't very liked in your neck of the woods.

Do other bulldogs root for bulldogs? Seems natural to me.

I always end up rooting for the Zags as a lot of Montana kids end up playing for them and they're only 3 hours away.

I always forget how The round of 32 is anticlimactic compared to the round of 64, having four games on at one time just makes it more fun. Gonzaga ended up making it not much of a game in the end, let's see if Michigan State can make it exciting against UNC.

The PAC 12 is looking good so far, and next up is WSU vs Iowa ST. Not feeling super confident the Cougars can pull it off, but you never know.

I figured we might need a place to comment on other games that are not Oregon as to not start individual threats about every game. Dayton vs Arizona is starting to heat up and is a really close game. Arizona is definitely vulnerable to the outside shooting teams.

Fun fact, Colorado hit 28-33 from the foul line. That's how you win games in the tournament.
