I hear Cliff Harris is coming back. Lol

I got in a little spat yesterday with a Beavus fan for pretty much the same thing. After 3 minutes of telling him the truth the argument was over. Most of their fans have no clue about the reality of what happened. They choose to blame Puddles for everything that has happened to them. if they think Karma is coming they are correct, in the form of the Mt West, their bowl game, their recruiting, the loss of most of their studs to the portal, and quite possibly Portland State.

I would only play sec powers at Autzen unless they gave Rob several million to visit them. Only way I would do a home and home with them is if they came here first. We will have plenty of tough road games every season without these kinds of risk. Not worth the risk in my opinion. Sec teams have made a living out of playing teams like Chantanooga and mombootechbeachstate middle school for years without penalty.

Looks good to me. Pretty accurate on his deep balls. Runs well.

It’s most of our opinions Charles. We probably don’t want the portal guy but from where we sit it looks like we need it.

It’s the I want it now mentality. Colleges want it and have little patience to wait if they want to evolve. High school QBs, even if they are the cream at the top, have very little chance to start and be successful at a blue blood program. If the kid doesn’t want to sit then he can transfer to another school is an option but will more than likely sit at that school as well. It’s the one position that is the most important to the team so I don’t see anything changing unless they change the portal rules. Transfers should have to sit for a year to keep the big money programs from using their endless resources to steel players from other schools not so fortunate. The NCAA has really never governed much of anything so I don’t see it changing. For us fans it’s been a good thing however. Players may opt to stick around another year rather than being drafted by the worst teams in the nfl. Bo is a great example. It’s made free agent markets out of college athletics. It is what it is.

I think it was the game plan we employed that helped do us in. We pretty much played in a 7 yard window until we got so far behind that we had to start stretching the field. The mutts seemed to know we were going to do this and it paid off for them for a big lead. Seemed like our players were stuffed on almost every play in the first qtr. I hope we learned from this mistake and go after the opponents secondary from the start of each and every game. We made their defense better than it was.

IMO any of the QBs in our barn either knows they are good enough to be part of this team or probably transfer out or possible they just like being here. Im sure it will all buff out in the end. I would think TT already knows his path and if he has doubt’s weather he can be #1 one then he should leave. For some reason I have never liked his body language, just doesn’t seem as engaged in the process as he needs to be to crack #1. Not a bad idea to bring in new blood for competition and let the better man win the job.

Let’s be honest here Oregon doesn’t deserve anything after that miserable shoeing Friday night. This is their penalty. Enjoy the game.

I quit reading all the negative comments, total waste of time. Support your team or don’t say anything. Please.

It is a long way from home. Traveling so far from home if you have a close family would be extremely hard.

I too don’t care who we play I just hope the players and coaches all stick to their dream and stay on focus. Playing in a bowl game is not as important as it was before the BCS and holding a team together after such a huge disappointment for the players will not be easy. We as fans will all be back next year and hopefully we don’t lose a bunch of players over this. This will be a major indication of how DL will do going forward. Im sure that WS will be a great play caller some day but he lacked creativity last night and Deboer made him pay for it. He opened up the offense only because he had to. If he’d have stretched that defense from the start I’m sure he would have been in the game at the start. IMHO

I too have not watched any football today. Gosh I thought I would be in the minority.😞 Can’t wait for signing day and hope next season is as entertaining as this one. Guess I will drown my taste buds tomorrow watching NFL tomorrow at the local pub where I can watch all the games at once. Lot of Duck fans will be there so I will have to re-live the disappointment again but that is football. It has been a great season and loads of fun pondering, Howard’s favorite quote I think, over the success and failures of our beloved Ducks. Thanks Mr. FishDuck.

I too agree with ducker, even though the score was close I never thought we had a chance after the mutts first drive. Our inability to win the line of scrimmage reared its ugly head the whole game no mater what formation or scheme we were in. If it were not for a PI against the mutt near the goal, very questionable in my mind, and 2 great catches by Fergy we get blown out. Bo was our leading rusher because of one play. Reminded me of Auburn’s games when Bo was the leading rusher. TOP favored the mutts by nearly 15 minutes because of their domination in the run game.

Wow where do you start? On a positive note Cam was not the goat this time and TF kept us in the game with two great catches on poorly thrown balls. There are so many negatives in this game but a glaring one was giving up over 150 rushing yards to a single running back while our to backs got basically nothing. Proof that neither line was ready for this game. What can you say about Bo. He had a look on his face, after the mutts first drive, that I haven’t seen before and it was obvious by all the errant throws that he was shook up. Not to mention the fact that we couldn’t block their D line. Dorlus had a tough night. The Mutts, except for one play, pretty much took him out of the game. No tackles. The list goes on but I will stop and finish by saying it was a memorable season and we are all sad by the way it finished. It was tough for it to end like this. It will be a hard transition to the B1G next year against physical teams and several really good coaching staffs. Future looks bright but we have a ways to go to get where we need to be. Good luck to our might Ducks.

Totally agree with you all.

Both lines got butt stomped tonight

Absolutely

Sad day, no Heisman for Bo and no final 4 for this team. Good luck next year.

Give Dboer credit he is just better for now.

Vegas blew this one.

There is little doubt which team is better. Actually surprised it’s this close. Penix has been very accurate and we can’t stop the run.

Bucky had a whole and chose running into the defense instead.

Our D line is getting pushed around pretty good.

He has had a bad game but it’s not over.
