Time To Raise the White Flag On the Civil War
I also want to add, it won't bother me if the game is not close any more. As a life long Duck, if we put up 60+ every game, fine. Awesome. Games with tOSU, UM, PSU, etc can be close. Blow out the Beavers. The more the merrier. They can be reminded every year of who and what they really are, 2nd class

Time To Raise the White Flag On the Civil War
OK. I'll throw in my 2 cents. Keep the game. We play a G5 team every year, let it be Beavis. Saves travel costs. Lots of folks want to watch and it will be a cheap ticket. Lastly, we want to maintain the appearance of equality and working with little brother so Oregon legislature stays out of our business. We don't want to have to make a payment like ucla.

Oregon Ducks’ New-look Uniforms for Oregon State Honor Phil Knight
I'm with you Charles, but... Phil & Penny represent the entire state in actuality. Yes Eugene. Yes UO. But their generosity and philanthropy reaches all across the state. Even to Corvalis. They have quietly given millions to OSU. The heart clinic where my wife received life saving surgery is named the Phil and Penny Knight Pavillion, here in Portland. The largest heart facility between Seattle and San Francisco. It makes sense to do this for Civil War game. And as a footnote, the special "state honor" unis, blue and orange/yellow, and the absurdly strange orange legged Duck honor unis, both led to disastrous losses. Humiliating even. This game should all but guarantee a win.

As usual, cool and original. The blackout should be OK as they will be in light color, away units. 69 - 3 sounds good to me!

Hummm, Ohio St. Wants Unequal Revenue Sharing???
IMO, as long as the B1G remains the conference, revenue sharing should be equal through the regular season and playoff teams share playoff revenue. A stronger conference, as deep as possible, only makes the whole better. Especially for rankings. And rankings are needed to make playoff. The problem with the old Pac12 was that half the country thought it was USuC and everyone else. So a win against Utah, or ASU, etc carried no weight with voters. Whereas beating Ol Miss (or any SEC team) was a great win. You get my drift. tOSU wanting unequal shares is selfish and short-sighted. It's also a move to try and get in front of potential west coast dominance with OBD, UW and USuC surging on the horizon. (Oregon is already there) without full revenue shares Something tOSU is overlooking is the need for mid-level teams to be in- conference to aid in stacking the win column. If PSU, UM, tOSU, USC, UW, Oregon, et al, played each other every year, there would be a lot of cannibalizing and hurting chances of making playoff. Let's recognize the need for "team" play and try and lift each other. A strong conference isn't needed for pro league, but I think a strong conference is mandatory in college. Especially when deciding who makes playoffs is often so subjective.

Does the Team Seem Different This Year? (Coaching)
So all players are Lannings guys. All buy in to his "team " philosophy. We are seeing the results. This year's team is different, cuz they're all Lannings boys. We need to change our thinking as Duck fans, cuz these guys are all buying in to the Lanning philosophy: team first. Look at the blocking, the sacrifice (Noah's block on blitz), down field blocking, etc. These guys want everyone to succeed. Raise can be a BIG year. My opinion: Dante is the guy to lead us to a Natty. BUT, Austin Novosad can get it done too. We are in great shape!

Saban Makes Me Want to Hurl...
Remember he didn't like our fast paced, no huddle offense either. No one like change or adaptations that take away your advantage. Now that everyone can pay players above board, the SEC has no advantage. The degree programs are pretty much all better in B1G schools as they are all AAU members. Dream on st Nick.

Single Portal Window Coming???
If this happens as reported, Oregon might not be able to get transfers before Spring quarter. Winter quarter starts 1st few days of Jan. Registration to be done by Christmas at latest (I think). All transfers would have to start Sping or Summer, possibly missing Spring practice.

The Meltdown in Alabama is EPIC
Too much early money makes "desire" too difficult to motivate. They already getting paid.

The Meltdown in Alabama is EPIC
I guess the real issue isn't just losing that first game, but how bad they looked playing the game. Those issues clearly look like coaching issues too. In the modern era of CFB, being an "old blueblood" isn't enough. The best players are demanding huge sums of $$ to play. NIL deals make any school look attractive. The SEC doesn't mean more if they aren't willing to pay more. Before all the $$, getting to a Bowl game was the sign of a good season. Something more than 60 teams could do every year. Now it's all about making the playoffs. Something only 12 teams can aspire to. So early seasons losses to teams you're supposed to bear, just mean more. 'Bama is no longer "the" place. And besides, whoever coaches there will always be compared to Saben. That's an impossible act to follow. We are so blessed to have coach Lanning. Gotta admit it's a little fun watching the mighty blueblood 'Bama realize they may just be average, or worse.
