I wasn't worried about this game until I saw these uniforms. OMG! These are truly awful and pathetic. I'm taking UW and the points! Oey vey!

Uh, champions of what, exactly? They're not even bowl eligible! Sad. Very sad indeed.

It's clear "head-to-head" match ups don't count for much. How can any team be ranked higher then the team that beat them?! Clearly the standards the committee uses are not clear at all. Btw, Idaho is ranked 8th in the FCS and in their playoffs. BSU also ranked. So maybe our adjusting to a new O-line with a new qb wasn't so awful in our 1st two games.

Yes, I am thankful for Charles and the Fishduck community. (So is my wife!) Thanks for the reminder David to hit that "donate" button. Go Ducks! Brutalize the doggies!

Arrogance is so off-putting. Unless you back it up with winning. There is no doubt TH is a great athelete. Playing as many snaps as he does is truly impressive. But the Heisman is also about character. He and his whole team fail there. Ashton Jeanty will get marked down cuz he plays in the MWC. But 2 things worth noting: 1- he played well against #1 Oregon 2- every team designs their defense on stopping him. Yet he still puts up great numbers consistently, weekly. And, his team is winning. My vote is for him. I think our Dillon is 2nd. He has been very good for us. Would we be #1 without him?

This is the 2nd time media were closed out. I believe the first time was before the Michigan game. I hope it gets the same result! Also a good way to help block out all other outside noise and help maintain focus. Good on ya, coach Lanning.

"The difference between Lanning and Day", well put! Excellent!

While I don't disagree with anything posted, I do recognize that beating the Beavs was more enjoyable when they were a G4 team. Now it's like beating up a 1st grader. I almost feel like a bully! (Almost) To me the saddest thing is even their fan base doesn't go to their games. They've had loads of empty seats every game except against us. Have y'all noticed how much green & yellow have been at all our away games?! Not only are our fans traveling, but apparently we have many fans in B1G cities! I did love what the WSU coach said about them not being 'buddies'. He is right. If given an opportunity, the Beavs would have left them in a heartbeat. Though they brought about their own demise, we can afford a little generosity. It was a very entertaining win for their faithful. And for those Beaver fans we all work with, we can congratulate them on their only Pac2 championship, as we celebrate our Natty win!

The Beavers pull the upset?!? OMG! A 55 yd FG with 26 sec left!

Indiana (wants me) 28 - 17 0 2 178

That's why they always celebrate as a team. Well done!

It seems that we have all been so inundated with how great the SEC is all these years that we believe that exaggeration unquestionably. Remember, they only play 8 conference games. If we had played Mercer instead of WU last sat, we'd be thinking how great we were. The "playoff" structure has favored the SEC since the BCS days. That's why they have won so many titles. Imagine if they played 9 conference games, half would have 1 more loss. You would end up with a lot more 8-4, 9-3, even 7-5 records. The result, fewer high ranked teams. If Oregon played the SEC this year, I believe we would beat everyone except maybe Georgia (always tough to beat your former headcoach). We've had some issues, but since OSU, we've been rolling. The offensive letdown at WU can be written off as 8 in-a-row fatigue. Every team has a game or 2 each year like that. Remember, we beat tOSU without Burch. WU without our #1 receiver Tez. We may not be undefeated in the SEC, but I'm sure we'd be playing for the SEC championship. Our team is special this year and DL is finding creative ways to keep them motivated and focused. I for one don't buy the SEC hype. Our Ducks are the real deal. Thanks Darren for a great conversation starter.

For the record, I predicted the correct score for Wisconsin, I was just off by 23 for the Ducks.

It is frustrating. What, indeed, are the criteria?!? Does anyone know? Indiana blows out Nebraska on the road, tOSU struggles against Neb at home, but the Bucknuts are better? Boise keeps winning and they drop out of the top 12? Clearly the ACC and Big12 don't look as tough as other conferences... Wisconsin loses to teams with worse records than ours, but we need a 4th qtr comeback to win?! I would prefer the committee to post open guidelines preseason to avoid the look of bias and favoritism.

Ducks 38 - 13 1 - t/o 3 - sacks 269 yds pass
