I can't help but wonder what Keanon Lowe would be like as an OC and recruiter.

I am partial to Helfrich. I've stated before the way he was treated toward the end of his last season was Bush league. As far as I know he was the only coach to play in Herbert's invitational in Eugene. I could be wrong. But him being there says a lot about his relationship with Justin. He has short comings, but he served Oregon very well. He tried to be Kelly 2.0 and got kicked in the walnuts. Enjoy your millions and your family, Mark!

Sark was all about a BottleInFrontOfMe.

Receiver had time to brace for impact after not catching the ball. He was defenseless. Vernon had time to change posture and lower head after the ball whizzed by, as well. Contact was made above the shoulders. It doesn't even have to be the helmet, but it was. Both players heads were forcibly bounced to the point their bodies were thrown apart from each other. Vernon's feet were leaving the turf prior to impact. Looks like launching to me.

It was targeting. You are incorrect about it always being called. I don't have a specific example, so that's weak sauce, but the calls on the field, after a review, and remotely by the Pac12 are horribly inconsistent. What is not in dispute is a haymaker thrown at a defenseless player from behind during a dead ball.

Kiffin II. Can't wait to kick his donkey.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ YES!! The big question was how would this team respond to the big let down. Credit to Mario, the staff, and players for coming back strong.

The swinging gate is an option play that I believe Kelly installed. The players called and failed the 2pt options against Nebraska. After that Helfrich stopped giving the players the option by not calling the swinging gate formation. Smith called plays an inferior team needs to execute to stay relevant. 1 of 3 2pt conversions, a failed hail Mary, and 1 of 2 onside kicks. They were never closer than 9 pts in the 2nd half.

Friday at 5pm, again. Another P12 genius move -- NOT.

The D is beat up. It's unrealistic to expect them to get a 3 and out every series and after an onside kick AND in the 4th quarter. The Oregon 2nd string D is better than OSU's first string.

It's the Uncivil War.

Even as a kid I knew who was the better Oregon team.

He should have been a 3 time Heisman.

The Ducks have "The CLUB". He's coming for you !

If the Beavers are in their all orange garb, then it looks like a silly pajama party. Not a fan of the pajama bowl.

I felt the same way. Coaches seemed quick to replace Shough, but seem to refuse to switch it up when Brown struggles.

This one from a spoiled fan!

The Ducks were not the 3rd best team in the FBS. I believe the CFP committee put them there because of the win in Columbus and they only had 1 loss. Even Vegas knew better than to favor the Ducks.

If Dye isn't coming back, he still plays the bowl game.

Regardless of who loses, I will wear my Sheer Kahn smile because knowing the Huskies lost to the Cougars is just too wonderful, while seeing the Cougars Coug it is almost poetic. A tie would be delightful!

All I would bet on is he won't be opting out of the bowl game.

Someday that guy might be Justin Herbert.

He's a real coach. Expectations are extremely high, though.

Charles, I wanted to delete my own messages but I only seem to be able to edit and blank out my message. Can a delete option be added for the commenter? Thank you for the gift of a free and ad free site!! It's almost unheard of these days.

I like the Platypus bowl. It's funny and light hearted. Otherwise, a Rose is a Rose. It's a civil war. The other thread in the article is about paying players. I'm tempted to start a GoFundMe to pay each player of the winning team only. Go Ducks
