Steven A

I remember when a guy who went by LaMike was praised on the scout team. Hopefully, a few on them on board.

Winning out. These aren't our father's Oldsmobiles. These Ducks are built different from any others we have seen. Vs usc, I see a Colorado type start and then a thoroughly demoralized sc in the second half with Williams being pulled down 3 scores in the 4th. ASU, no problem. THE OSU, not the tOSU we will face next year and beyond, our Uiagalelei will usher in a CW victory. Then on to Vegas where the current Ducks - 6.5 will be just like the game in Utah. Just saying, no prejudice.

Bill Hancock out. Revenue sharing. New TV deal. Pac 2 status. Change is coming to the College Football Playoff SPORTS.YAHOO.COM With decisions to be made on an expansion format, a new CFP director, revenue sharing and a new TV deal, there's plenty at stake as college football's power brokers meet in Chicago on Thursday.

It will be interesting "who" Cindy Lou Riley will hire to replace his Grinch.

Brady Hoke might be available soon.

You mean "Bucky Rearview Irving"?

Per Riley after last year . . . "I've been through it enough with that guy to know, don't bet against him. Anybody in a situation like this where we know we need to take a big jump in all areas, and we need to be better as coaches. We need to be better as players. We need to own the things that we did well. We need to own and fix the things we didn't do well," said Riley last year. "I just know what he's made of. I just do. And I know what's getting ready to happen defensively. And so, I just have a confidence and a belief, and not just Alex, but the other guys in the room. I believe in the quality of people that we have in there." This on their way to the worst scoring D in school history! Can you hear the collective groans from the BIG?

It will be interesting and probably easier for Bo to read this new D. With Grinch, the way the players lined up had nothing to do with their assignments. At least now he may be able to guess what they are supposed to be doing.

Week too soon

OUCH! Gotta love this espn quote after Johson ran for 199 yards before first contact "We'd say it would be hard for a back to do that against 11 traffic cones, but that comparison might be giving usc's defense too much credit".

Hey, give Grinch a break . . . He didn't miss a single tackle, he didn't miss a single assignment, and he didn't line up in the wrong zip code. He is merely the architect of such plans.

Carrying a full offensive load and your defense on your back for 3 quarters will do that to you.

Ho Hum, next. The ewe dub / sc refs might have done one better, no intentional grounding as the QB wasn't under duress. So you can throw the ball away from the pocket if no one is open because you're tied of being in the pocket and eventually the D won't get to you!

Give that man a lifetime subscription! And while you're at it, all the weekly winners.

55 - 10 Ducks 4 sacks 2 TO 285 py

Nothing wrong with that math, I think we have to get to 5 - 0 before 6 - 0

We didn't dodge a bullet in Wilcox, we dodged Armageddon. You always have to be somewhat worried about a bigger program. But after winning this year's Natty, we will be that bigger program. Also, who wants to follow a legend like Saban?

Small "if", I'm going with "when". That, and when we make it, our A game gets it done. In the past few years I didn't think we quite belonged. Not so anymore.

Seems about right. 1 of them gets in. They are both really good teams.

Agreed, win out and in. I don't care who we replace above us.

My cheat sheet was listening to Dave Bartoo with Canzano yesterday: 1. OSU 2. FSU 3. Mich 4 /5. Georgia or ewe dub (he says ewe dub deserves it [SOS 104 and a top 25 W] but Georgia [SOS 108 no top 25 Ws] might get it just cuz of who they are) Next are the 1 loss teams 6. Texas, 2 top 25 Ws 7. 'Bama, 2 top 25 Ws next three probably, not sure of the order but he would put it 8. Oklahoma, 1 top 25 W 9. Ole Miss, 1 top 25 W 10. Oregon, 1 top 25 W Committee looks at number of losses top 25 Ws, ranking when they meet, not when you played them quality Ws, teams over 500, record when they meet, not when you played them margin of victory SOS, but not based upon ESPN's rankings, didn't say whose Bad Ls, teams under 500, record when they meet, not when you played them Later on, Conference Championships Claims no "eye test", but doesn't margin of victory seem like that?

I think we need a new term for what the Stein offense did to the Utes' offense, he put them "behind the goal posts" with the play calling and fast start.

You forgot Ebola from the bats in the basement.

When in doubt, always root against ewe dub. My words to live and die by!

Next week is a lose lose for us. If ewe dub wins, sc is out of top 25 when we beat them the following week. If sc wins, ewe dub drops out of top 10. When all else fails, root for a ewe dub loss.
