Touching my wooden desk as I type this - As long as we play as hard and smart as the first 50 minutes and the last 5 minutes of last night, we will get it done this year! This Ducks team is deep and talented enough to beat anyone. Plus we clearly have the best HC to lead and motivate. Go Ducks!

I am ashamed of my prediction of a PSU W. How little faith I had in our team. The rollercoaster ride was incredible. So proud to be a Duck! Let's get rested and heal, especially Sadiq. 11 more wins to go!

This is a tough one, but I think ultimately home field helps and Dante may not be in top form. Yikes! So hard to pick the other team, and it's not at all an indication of my royalties. Hoping this is one of those double/reverse Jinks 🤞 PSU 38-31 2 1 200

IMHO, this different uniform per game business just makes it a little bit harder for us to play and win. No matter what, each player has to add a nano second to process, at least early in the game. Why is it a good thing, especially nowadays there are so many other ways to show that we have uncle Phil? 😁

I agree - our D needs to step up against PSU and play sharp. I think our O can hang with them, but it will really come down to which team plays better D.

Just give Hughes more touches! Good things happen when he has the ball. I don't know what he has done here to fail to impress the coaches, but look at the guy's history!

Firing Gundy like this is really low-class act by that OSU - the guy has been there for 20 mostly good years! He is hardly the biggest reason for the program's failure. They need more NIL money! I don't think changing the HC will change that dynamic. Same exact situation at the Rodents. They only way they can be competitive is to move to FCS! I hope WS waits till the end of the season to make a move. The openings right now are pretty unimpressive. Besides the money, why would he move now?

Actually you brought up an interesting observation I had from the Civil War game - why was Dante still playing in Q4 when the score was already 41-7? I nearly cringed on every snap he took...

My memory is short, but didn't we struggle against Idaho and Wisconsin last year? This year so far, I thought we showed some lack of effort in both the NU and OSU games, unless you wanted to call that strategy? On the flip side, we stepped up big time against tOSU last year at home... Anyway, my point is that I am confident that we will put forth our best effort this Saturday and in 2 weeks, especially if IU is in the top-10.

OBD under Lanning tends to play to the opponent's level. I am sure they will step up in the next 2 games. The bye after PSU is perfect before taking on IU. Go Ducks!

Why is Dante still in?

Practice for the PSU game - pretend that the rodents are baby lions!

Not my favorite either. It's another funeral color like the PSU white. But I guess as long as it sings the swan song of the opponent... I hope we never get into poop brown! 🤞

Looks like Dante will be ready for the PSU game. Definitely the right way to break into a newish QB, much better than how CJ Carr has experienced so far at Notre Dame...

Whittington hurt? Good thing we are loaded at RB...

Coaches address speculation about Oregon’s inflatable duck appearing in Chicago - oregonlive.com It would be great if he makes it there? Chicago river or the big lake though? 😀

Just read that on On3 too... If that's the case, good riddance. He was given plenty of chances to prove himself on the field and failed. Seems like worse than Ty Thompson who was at least hardworking and easy-going. Totally explains his transfer destination.

Too bad he didn't pan out. Why was he suspended in August, I wonder? Good thing we got plenty of other talents. Wish him the best, although I doubt we will ever hear about him again...

Great segment about OBD. Hope we stay under the hype radar and continue to play well! I let the tape run and he went on to talk about the Spoiled Children - "No drama" was his summary, LOL. Great job, coach Riley!

Remember what KSmart told Lanning after the game? Now we can tell teams like OKSt that we have better players! BTW, for those of us who have been around since the good old days, have you noticed that everyone can pronounce "Oregon" now? No more Orygun or Oregone. I think that's 100% because of OBD's success in Football.

Agree with Charles 100%. Of course being 2 years older and wiser helps a lot too! It's important for a high-end QB to be humble. Speaking of the dumpster fire, UCLA program is really hot now, LOL UCLA Unlocked: Someone must take accountability for this dreadful football product - Los Angeles Times

I say we will cover easily again, if we played anything like the first 2 games. Go Ducks!

Yes, I have noticed that we are gang tackling a lot more, which is a sign of great defense. Keep it up, OBD!

The bigger surprise to me is how Akili Smith Jr hasn't played yet. What's up with that?

Let's just slap both sides of his mouth this Saturday on the field!
