    As to our primary rival, I think UW was just a particularly bad matchup for us in 2023

    Yeah that may be.   But not seeing them in top 25 for 2024 seems wrong.  You mean they are not even better than Colorado?  I guess this came out before the writer heard about Will Rogers staying.  Anyway, huge grain of salt with these kinds of rankings this early.

    DeBoer is going to be hard to replace. However, as much as I hate to say it, he’s probably going to be replaced by a pretty good coach. Washington is an attractive job and since they offered DeBoer $8.4M to stay they have the money.

    Agreed.  I don't think we should celebrate yet until we know who is replacing him at the Fuskies.   Let's face it, OBD fans are only happy he's gone because he beat us 3x in a row.    I, for one, would rather that we have a chance to beat them next year with DeBoer as HC.  Not sure how I feel about this news yet.  Oh well...

  3. Some coaches may welcome Nick's guidance.   But it will be hard coming into a program like that, highly paid no doubt, and still have to watch for that shadow.  On the other hand, having Nick around may help retain and recruit players too.   So it really depends on who is the new HC...

  4. Other than performing poorly under pressure, Penix's other fatal flaw is fragility.   He is easily injured and broken.   In fact, last night's game may have hurt his NFL draft stock, seeing how he grimaced in the final 2 minutes of the game, being wrapped in that awful-looking tube in his mid-section.  And he wasn't really that badly hit in the game.   It will surely be worse in the pros.  Not good...

  5. Here is yet another reason to root against the puppies - Harbough is more likely to coach Herbert if M wins.   That's multiple wins for OBD fans:

     

    1.  Something to root for on Sundays

    2.  M may be weaker, improving OBD outlook in B1G

    3.  Puppy fans won't hold natty over us for who knows how long

  6. Enemy's enemy = friend.   That's just basic common sense.  Don't overthink it.   OBD needs to and will earn its own championship.   Counting on our enemy to earn points for us is not the way to think.  I root for both teams to lose next Monday.  😂

    Without the untimely injuries, Oregon's potential was off the charts with Adams at the helm, and the Ducksappear to have much more depth across the board than the 2015 version.

    Exactly my thought when I watch Gabriel films - he is just like Vernon, who was really like Russell Wilson at this prime.    Let's hope Dillon's thumb stays healthy through entirety of whatever playoff game that he may take us to!

    Cool - looks like our friends in Taiwan are into the Ducks too! LOL

     

    I have been nervous too, because of OBD's history of often choking on huge games like this and the stake on this game can't be higher.    But I think Lanning is much better at motivating players and getting them ready.   Fingers crossed!
