Yes, keeps Riley in LA a bit longer.

Sir, you seem to be lost.

"Big job" is subjective. He is still a decent P4 coach. It would be interesting if ewe dub and OBD both run the table up till that game. A Ducks win and we are in. A close Ducks loss and both might make it depending on SEC chaos and only 1 bid to ACC and Big 12.

This is great news. Kwame Evans Jr. back for Ducks MBB after knee injury in season-opener

I'm not going to take Iowa to be the only person to do so and an easy win, as I do not want Charle's magnanimous prize to bump my tax bracket!!! So, Ducks 27 - 8 2 TO's (no Mari, not time outs) 1 sack 205 pyds

Alex, your article brought up another scenario for us to ponder . . . A two loss Ducks team could miss the playoffs. Going forward since we want to see OBD in the playoffs every year it will be a daunting task to go 11 - 1 year after year. That is a tough ask, so we do need to be prepared for hopefully no more than a one-year absence every so often.

What to expect from Iowa defense. The Hawkeyes have the No. 5 scoring defense (14.0 ppg), No. 3 total defense (243.1 ypg), No. 4 passing defense (153.4 ypg), and No. 12 rushing defense (89.7 ypg) in the nation. I think those will change for their worse. How much is weather depending. What the Oregon Ducks should expect from Iowa's defense On offense. Hawkeyes have a solid rushing offense, averaging 167.4 yards per game, which ranks 47th in the nation. That's great compared to their passing offense, which ranks 129th in the nation, with just 144.7 yards per game. So, put 11 in the box! What the Oregon Ducks should expect from Iowa's offense

I'm not so sure. The committee doesn't want egg on their faces, so I think they will give SEC type bias to their top 25 for loses to teams ahead of them. Otherwise it is almost like saying "I guess we screwed up". If we win a tight game with Iowa, depending on what other ranked teams do, they may stay in the top 25. After OBD, they travel to sc then coast with Sparty and Neb. So, lose to us and win out, they will stay in top 25. No credit if we beat Minnesota although they are on a bye and are 6-3 right now. If sc wins their next 2, then they will be in top 20 and won't fall out with a loss to us. ewe dub looks like a cakewalk till they play us (Wisc, Purdue, UCLA). So, they will be ranked both before and after even with a loss.

Looks like both football and basketball are relying on walk-ons as QB2's. Hurry back Shelstad / Dante stay upright.

Weather report: up to a 1/4 inch of rain with wind. Ouch. Should not have much of an effect on Iowa's non-existent passing game. Weather Concerns Mount For Oregon's Game Vs. The Iowa Hawkeyes

Five items are: Evans injury, Simpkins offense, turnovers (UGLY), walk-on Carter at point, Bittle in the paint. Five items of note from Oregon's one-point regular season opening win over Hawaii

We seem to be the B-2 Bomber of the football world. We aren't under the radar; we are known it is just radar doesn't pick us up (hopefully until it is too late).

One thing is for sure; I do not care about the rankings as long as in the final reveal we are in. Although a favorable seeding is nice, you still need to beat every team you play in the playoffs to be the Champs (I know, big duh here) But, if we can't beat tosu or Indy in an early round, then we do not deserve to be the Champs. Just win baby win and DO IT.
