No, he broke out in the Ohio St game... Remember that beauty down the sideline?

Buckeye fans can take one thing home and feel good about.... It was a quality loss

Idaho basically blitzed on every play.... Most teams won't do that, but they knew they were inferior and had nothing to lose. They are athletic enough for that strategy to pay off. We'll know more next week... If it's actual o-line problems, Ducks will lose to Boise St.

I whole-heartedly agree with the argument put forth in the article. Us wee folk in the PNW don't often have to face this situation, even less so when it's likely the PNW is going to win. Washington is helping Oregon by association. Michigan can go pound sand.

Helfrich was not head coach material from the get-go and was a lazy hire to replace Chip. Too soft. not enough of that type A personality. He didn't have the leadership energy that is required to keep the team cohesive and focused and thus lost the locker room. That's why 70-21 happened and why 4-8 happened.

Yes, possibly even 3 losses depending on the number of undefeated.

There it is: also #5 in AP poll. Clearly Oregon is being viewed as the top 1-loss team still and hopefully the committee maintains that view as well.

Been a fan since 1990 and I have NEVER felt as confident about these Ducks as I feel today. The difference is the lockdown defense... We've never seen a defense at Oregon like we're witnessing this season.

Totally agree. I too was very disappointed in TT's performance. He just doesn't have "it".

I don't know... The Ducks have been making it look easy (minus penalties). The last game I can remember being nervous watching was Texas Tech haha. I'm halfway confident that they will roll the beavs in the same fashion as they rolled Utah or ASU. This is the year.

Can we have a HC, OC, DC last longer than 4 years around here? Shheesh....

Been wondering this now ever since the Stanford game. I read somewhere he's kicked it out of bounds 5 times now and missed 5 out his last 8 FG attempts. I'm getting Moldanado vibes. I hope he gets it together for the stretch run.

I'm hoping this is just media click bait, but it better not be a distraction... These next two games are crucial. We all know what happened when we started hearing rumors about Mario and the Miami head coaching job: Ducks were destroyed twice by Utah and I blame most of that on the coach, he checked out mentally on the team, causing a morale problem amongst the players and it was reflected on the field.

Exactly how I felt before the Utah game, but the Ducks came out clean and crisp and handled them easily on the road. Here's hoping the same happens next week, this time in the comfy confines of Autzen.

Penix was injured in the 4 quarter against the Ducks... Looked like ribs or chest. He hasn't been the same since.
