Like 30Duck said neither should fall far for losing to a top 3 team, Georgia sure didn't. If your only loss is to a top 3 team you should probably stay ahead of the team that lost to a 2-2 team and the team that lost to a 3-2 team. Just like how Georgia is ahead of Alabama and Tennessee. Those of us that have been PAC-12 fans know all to well that that kinda of math is not a factor if SEC teams are in the mix. You're probably right if Oregon loses to tOSU they will probably drop below the two teams that were recently embarrassed on national TV. Given the normal SEC bias that is. Sorry nothing personal I know you're a good guy but getting hosed so many times in the past makes me jaded.

The BG1 refs protect the blue blood teams and always have just like the SEC. USC is just a carpet bagger in the eyes of the conference officials. tOSU game had some calls that changed the momentum and it certainly wasn't in Marshall's favor. I'm sure we will be granted no favors in our games unless it's against the bottom half of conference.

Glad to see Jordan James not being subbed out at the end of the drive.

Finally got to watch the game, thanks Charles. This game could easily have been 14 to 48 had just a few things been cleaned up like dumb penalties and fumbles. Sacks happen and the O line looked better, give DG A little more time and those down field throws will happen more often. Don't lose faith The team will be doing just fine if it can just clean up the dumb stuff.

Bo had his moments with lots of short passes. When he did throw down field he had some really bad one mostly because he should have never throw the ball in the first place and timing with receivers was off. The plus side is at the end of the game trying for the come back he got into a better rhythm and had some really nice throws, one back shoulder throw in particular was a thing of beauty. A little deer in the headlights but once he settled down and relaxed little he started to figure it out. Showed good leadership and communication for rookie. Would you expect anything less.

ND was severely overrated again, no surprise there.

DG is a mobile QB but putting him in harms way against an opponent like Idaho generally ends up being a bad decision. Pretty much every running QB we've ever had has been knocked out by desperate QB run plays. If Gabriel has to run to beat a FCS team then manny things are very wrong with this team.

On a further note the defense looked great other than the DB playing the other side of the ball from Muhammad.

One of Idaho's TDs was on a trick play from the 37 yard line because we decided it would be a good idea to go for it on 4th and inches in our own territory. Reed bit hard on the fake leaving his guy with a clear path to the end zone. I know there's been a few times that fake punts and 4th and inches deep in our own territory has work but it's also cost us the game a few times. DL should reassess the strategy and see if it's really worth the 50/50 shot and the momentum swing that this brings. If he want to get aggressive throw the ball down the field rather then throwing the ball short of the sticks on third down.

Do remember that Dillon Gabriel hit his hand on a defenders helmet early in the game, this could definitely affect his throwing hand and could be part of the reason he didn't throw deep. The sky is not falling and Idaho is a better team than most people are giving them credit for. This game reminds me of Fresno State game in 21 that was way to close and everyone was freaking out. The next game we beat the Buckeyes.

Idaho's D was good last year but that was against Big Sky teams. I'm a little scared for Montana State. Can't believe their DL is standing up our Big bruiser on the OL.

This is a little embarrassing.

First game jitters, most all the games I've watched today the first half is pretty uninspiring. Time to make some adjustments at halftime and come out with some solid OL play.

Are many of you able to get the game on TV? Mateo is looking good covering the flats.

Big get for a position of need. The one thing this defence has been missing is NFL level play from a safety. We've been spoiled in the past with some amazing safety that where game changed. Let's hope this is a step in that direction.

Looks like a grade A shopping list for Dan!

Let me be clear I love Coach Waz and he's done an amazing job. It's all about coaching style and for me I would give the freshman a fairly short leash in a big game with probably the biggest crowd he's ever played in front of. Just some minor strategy adjustments is all I suggest. That being said I know you have to stand behind your pictures. Let them face adversity and get themselves out of trouble to build confidence and resiliency. Waz is taking the team in a great direction. He needs to hone his game just like Dan Lanning is doing and they both are getting better every year.

Personally I think he should have come in 2 batters earlier while it was still a game, then if needed keep him in to get the win. I think Waz let's the pitches stay in the game for too long when they start throwing wild pitches or hitting multiple batters it's time to go.

Oregon bats are looking good today!

Thanks for the updates, I was working tonight and the quick glance at Fishduck was all I could manage. At least I cought the last to innings on streaming Radio.

Top of the 6th 9-5 Oregon. Ducks are hitting well. Fun game to tune into, PAC 12 Networks

Looks like a good a good Couisnard replacement with solid drives to basket just need to get that 3 point shot percentage up on only sitting 30% list year.

Novosad has really stepped up his game and what an arm, haven't seen that velocity around in a few years.

Being a Raiders fan I'm not happy about this, for some reason I don't hate the Charges as much as I hate the Broncos.

The Ducks greatest need has been filled. Last year this was the body type we were really missing. That Dillon Brooks kinda guy who is dangerous from anywhere and can handle the ball if needed.
