GameDay Thread versus Washington in Pac-12 Championship: Join Us!
No Way! Let's see UW in the champ game to validate a great final Pac-12 season. Bo's INT after the Ducks INT was the ball game. This was the bad BO, Throw into double coverage, and best of luck. Oregon's run game was stagnant. Daniels wins the Heisman Trophy and Penix finishes 2nd. Onward and upward on the way to the B1G. Beat a good team in the NY6, If Penix was hurt for UW, it hurts so good. D L is 0-3 vs, UW, but Harbough was 0-7 before defeating Ohio State 3 times in a row. DeBore is one heck of a coach. GO DUCKS!+

Hats off to UW! UW won both LOS. I did not see this coming.

The Most Nervous EVER? This is the WORST Week...
Somewhat off T but it looks like 3rd string QB, 4* true Frosh, Brock Gleen will be starting for FSU tomorrow in the rain in Charlotte. But a 3rd string QB started for tOSU when #4 Ohio State defeated #1 Bama and then took out the Ducks in the 2014 champ game. Louisville wins OREGON takes care of business in LV and the Ducks is likely the 3 seed and playing Michigan in the Rose Bowl. Go Puddles! Pound the Puppies!

Great take. But isn't 'intelligent UW fan' except for Jimmy Lake, an oxymoron?😒

Cam Ward Hits The Transfer Portal
Interesting. If TT were to transfer, what kind of NIL $ could he secure? I do not see him being picked up by a top P5 program. Ward on the other hand is a valuable commodity. Especially coming off of the Apple Cup performance. My #1 QB transfer for Oregon is Duke's Riley Leonhard. And with Notre Dame losing players, especially WRs, I'm not certain that Riley wants any part of South Bend. Today, and I appreciate TT being a good soldier, I'd rather have Ward and his starting experience on the roster.

Thanks, my friend, and GO DAWGS after Puddles pounds puppies.

Perhaps Duck's Riley Leonard will not be going to South Bend? Notre Dame is living Exodus. https://athlonsports.com/college-football/notre-dame-fans-worried-ninth-player-enters-college-football-transfer-portal

Does Dan Lanning Have a Kalen Deboer Problem?
0-2 with 2 losses by a total of 6 points. DL does need to get the better of DeBoer but it's not like UW has throttled the Ducks. I believe this 'problem' disappears this evening.

Cam Ward Hits The Transfer Portal
I get it, my friend. But as of today, the Pac-2 has no television deal come 2024. Why reward plaintiffs who are suing you with what would likely be their most-watched game of the year? And looking at future schedules, the Ducks do not need another G5 game against fired-up teams on the road playing in small arenas in Corvallis and Pullman. These games would be huge scheduling wins for the Pac-2. I say let them stew in their dam lair.

Which Michael Penix Will Oregon Face Tonight?
Gutsy? Yes. Penix is a baller. But I see no reason for his accuracy to bounce back to the accuracy he had in the season's 1st 6 games.

The Pac-2 is leaking players. Well deserved for the chicken spit money grab lawsuit. Rob, please do not go out of the way to schedule Beavers and Cougars.

Which Michael Penix Will Oregon Face Tonight?
Johnson is coming off of the Apple Cup with a foot injury. What impact will this have on his play tonight? One thing for certain in this game, the OREGON D has to do a better job of holding the edge than in the 1st game in Seattle. With the improved play of Burch and Matayo, I think we will see the UW run game held down like the Ducks held down the Beavers run game.

Which Michael Penix Will Oregon Face Tonight?
Charles, what a great, timely, and beautifully 'illustrated' take. Thank you. Here's another stat that I found to be of interest. In 2023, UW passed the ball 443 times and ran the ball 323 times for a total of 766 plays. Before and including the OREGON game, UW averaged 3.86 points per possession with a 55.3% success rate. Post the OREGON game, UW averaged 2.50 points per possession with a success rate of 44%. 1.36 fewer points per possession. This is where the rubber meets the road. And this is why post-Oregon, UW found itself in many one-possession games and finished 5-6-1 Against the Spread (ATS.) OREGON finished 10-1-1 ATS with a push in Seattle and a late WSU score to keep the Ducks from getting the cover vs. the Cougars. As to your excellent 'Havoc' take - OREGON finished with 42 sacks and finished #1 in the country with .5 sacks surrendered per game. UW finished with 19 sacks and tied for #3 in the country with .8 sacks surrendered per game. As noted, OREGON needs to pressure Penix. On 1st and 2nd downs without pressure, Penix is #1 in the country in completion percentage. OREGON comes into the game -9.5. SP+ has it OREGON by 8.4. FPI has it OREGON by 9.7. ............................................................................................................................................................ Assuming OREGON TCBs in LV, the most important champ game to keep an eye on is # 1. 12-0 Georgia -5.5 vs. # 8. 11-1 Alabama. These two are scheduled to play in September 2024. A rare occurrence as the teams have met only twice in the regular season in the last 15 years! The last game Georgia lost came 2 seasons ago. 6 point favorite UGA lost: Alabama 41/ Georgia 24. But that loss came against an Alabama team with a high-flying offense. SP+ has it Georgia by 7.2. FPI has it Georgia by .07. GO DUCKS! POUND THE PUPPIES! And GO you Hairy UGA Dawgs.

PAC12 Championship SOLD OUT
Yet, Larry's Loser Network could not find $100K to provide on-site pre and postgame coverage. And there will be no studio lead-in or wrap-up. This is when the conference needs the PO pub. The B1G and SEC networks will be covering their champ games wall-to-wall. Larry, the gift that keeps on giving.

Dante Moore Joins DJ in the Portal
And Chip should be in the unemployment line. Chip mishandled Moore this season. Chip is now .500 in six seasons in Westwood. 7-5 overall and 4-5 in conference in 2023 with no game vs. UW and no game vs. OREGON is Terrible.

Will Conference Championship Games Replace the Old Pac 12 Cannibalization?
SEC is dropping divisions next season. Like the B1G, the top 2 SEC teams will play in the 2024 SEC champ game. And miracles do happen! Bama is playing Georgia in the regular season in September of 2024. Interesting that in this season's champ games Oregon and Bama in particular have a chance to make the PO, FSU the chance to fail, and perhaps Texas a way to find its way to the final Final 4. But with Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State, UW, and OREGON in a projected 2024 12-team playoff field, along with UGA, Texas, Bama, and Missouri, what purpose other than the all-mighty dollar, will conference champ games serve?

College Football (CFB) 2023 - Puddles Passing the Eye Test
Pawalll and his buddies are in meltdown mode with Oregon being ranked 5th and ahead of Bama. This after Bama barely defeated a 6-6 Auburn team that was run off of its home field by New Mexico State. The win over 4-loss Tennessee in Tuscaloosa was huge but Oregon's destruction of 4-loss Utah in SLC was not. Right.

Capped by a Washington appellate judge telling the money-grubbing Beavs and Cougs - Not So Fast. Simple equity will not allow teams that bargained for one-twelfth of the pie to eat half. Why is Rob going out of his way to set up a game against a school suing Oregon? A school without a media deal comes July, 2024.

I'd like to bring in Duke's Riley Leonard but I think he is headed to South Bend.
