I think Bucky was probably playing injured. Ordinarily he would plow through defenders and gain several yards more after first being hit, but not yesterday.

I'll be interested to read Ken Woody's article in a couple of days to see if he mentions pad levels (as he sometimes does). Both the D-line and O-line seemed not quite up to usual standards.

It seems the safe answer to questions about leaving a program is, "I love it here." Followup questions to be answered with questions. "Why would I leave?" "Do you know something I don't know?" Etc. Just saying something, without really saying anything.

Is the Tush Push legal in college football these days?

I saw that last episode too and also got a little verklempt. I've also been wondering if the PAC-12 would some day, say 10 years or so from now, reconstruct itself. I know it's anywhere from extremely unlikely to impossible, but, still, I can't help wondering.

I thought the Gators might pull the upset yesterday--but the expanded playoffs next year should make it more exciting for everybody. Enjoy the too-long off season, and we'll look for you here again!

Oregon using up 8 minutes and 41 seconds to score their first touchdown, or Oregon scoring a touchdown with only 54 seconds left in the first half? I can't decide!

Interesting. Smith is leaving one "little brother" school for another. It will be intriguing to see if he can pull MSU up more to Michigan's level.

Just win, Ducks! Win!

I believe it was the players who wanted the name of the game changed. But on Game Day more than once they (the Game Day people) referred to it as the CW.

I've noticed it, but have ignored it.

It sounds as if there are a lot of Duck fans in the stands!

I love Trains, Planes, and Automobiles.

All this, plus Oregon was already a good team when Chip was hired. He did not have to rebuild.

Different coaches, so hope for better results.

It's nice to know there are some people in this world who think a $7,000,000 income is good. That's not to say that DL would never accept/ask for more money, but he says that's not his top priority, his family is, and I believe him.

At the Auburn-Oregon championship game, I seem to remember Chip deciding to go for a TD 3 or 4 times on short-and-goal rather than try a field goal. Was that Chip just being BB Chip or was he concerned that the kicker wouldn't succeed on the short attempts?

Lots of rumors out there--and we know how reliable rumors can be. Next Texas A&M coach odds: Jeff Traylor, Mike Elko, Kalen DeBoer favored; Deion Sanders, Urban Meyer longshots to replace fired Jimbo Fisher - SportsLine.com WWW.SPORTSLINE.COM So as it turns out, both head coaches were fired in the wake of Texas A&M's 51-10 home blowout win against Mississippi State...

I hope Camden can get his act together real soon. Meanwhile, this guy sounds promising for the future. West Linn kicker Gage Hurych ready for next level with Oregon Ducks WWW.KOIN.COM There are a lot of new starters on this year’s squad for the Lions, but something that hasn’t changed is the person putting the ball... hope

Just FYI, next to the Moshofsky Center there is a booth where they give away McDonald's French Fries. The line can be long, but moves quickly, because no time is needed to pay for the fries. It was my daughter and SIL who pointed this out to me.

Well, actually, he has three jobs: kickoffs, PATs, and field goals. But, yeah.

Hey, as long as Oregon wins, I'm happy.

At one time wasn't the plan to have only 11 regular season games, then conference championships could be Thanksgiving weekend, and playoffs could start the next week? Or did I dream this.?

Did anyone take any pics they could post?
