Wow, it will be fun when we face them next week. Go Ducks!

I say let the rodents beg for mercy to end the series. I don't mind enjoying more OBD lopsided victories. What's wrong with scheduling them every (other) year, like we do against Portland State some years? It will be a nice tune-up game and morale booster. Only strike is playing in their tiny 30K+ stadium, but maybe $$$ will persuade them to come play at our big house instead.

Miami will be punished if they lose a game in their soft schedule, just like ND was. Knowing MariNo, he will find a way to give away a game or two later in the season by not kneeling or something brilliant, just in time to get them dropped out of the PO.

Further expansion of 6-pac will depend on TV contracts as I don't think they have more stolen $ left... Would any network pay enough to even provide as much as the 20ish Millon/school that caused the collapse? I highly doubt it. The market will definitely tell if they are just another G5.

Like father, like sons. What else can we say about this family?

I hope we will finally win the PNW this year. Too bad that we won't face WSU...

When are we going to have a complete game on both sides of the ball, that is the question. I guess this is the nature of CFB, but surely hoped the talent advantage would change that this year, oh well. Time to re-up on the aspirins!

So being left behind due to your own incompetence justifies you spending the charity $ you got to destroy another conference? This guy really is living in some alt universe!

Well, at least the conference name isn't geographical like "Pac"... It's totally fine to have B1G cover the whole country. What's ridiculous is the "10" part. They should just drop it and call it "BIG Conference". Now, ACC is the laughable one as some teams are nowhere near the Atlantic.

OBD 28-24 1 2 350 passing

Herstreit also says it's about getting OBD's mind right.

Paying 110M to survive as P-12 is just dumb, except I guess the 2 thieves wouldn't be able to use that dough we earned for them if they were to join MWC... Now I guess we will see with MWC do with that money. Maybe they can buy the 4 traitors back. What's the exit fee for 6pac? Wouldn't that be hilarious?

That's a nice uplifting comparison, David. So it seems like we are doomed to lose the Civil War, because it's the game before the bye, followed by UCLA?

OBD's D will stop Beav's run game and get the ball back to our O plenty. It's going to be up to our O-line and O to take control. If they can do that, we should easily cover. If not, it will be another long shaky game.

My thinking as well, but looks like their D is better, which is not good for us... I am sticking to 28-24 OBD.

Fingers and toes crossed for this one. Still remember the last time we were at Reser... Somehow I think the current OBD team might be even more complacent if they manage to build a 21-pt lead.

I am just glad that it's call Civil War again! Got to pop some asprin again before and during this game, LOL.

Wow really? Do the gamblers ever learn? I know OBD will beat the rodents, but certainly won't expect that margin. I predict 28-24.

Not pretty, but we're done with potatoes this year! Bring on the rodents!I

I guess this will be an instant classic CFB game, regardless of outcome. So enjoy it, OBD fans!

I forgot to mention: let's return the kicks!

Mari No's ghost, and the boos from the Autzen crowd, are all back.

Yes, OL is leaky. But DG needs to get rid of ball quick or be more mobile too! Not to give up on him, but I wonder if it's time to play another 5-star QB that we got just to mix things up? I think it's desperation time. Continuing the same plays will definitely result in a loss.

Send Stewart and Johnson down field and have DG get rid of the ball quickly. When that works for a couple of times, running plays should loosen up. Definitely don't keep running up the middle for 1st and 2nd down. That's the Mari No play!

I think at this point, DL and Stein need to just call aggressive offensive plays. Can't just run up the middle or throw lateral passes any more. This team is clearly not as good as hyped and we need to play hungry! Case in point, when DG throws to Stewart down field, good things happen...
