I am Surprised at the Wolfing and Showboating...Are You?
AGREED. No place for it and I don't care if this is Daniel's first HC gig, I don't think we see this on the 'Bama or Bulldog sidelines. It should only be allowed once a year . . . even years at home and on odd years up North.

Win Out and a Playoff Spot is Likely There for the Ducks
This year I'd prefer a Rose Bowl W, over a playoff "appearance", the bling looks cooler in the case.

Breaking News: Dorrell Dismissed As Head Football Coach at Colorado
Good news, everyone on this forum couldn't have done worse than 0 - 5. Bad news, none of us will reap the benefit of $4Mil for doing so.

Strange Thought on Boise State and Conference Realignment
I noticed you stopped before you got to the WC/toilet. Well played.

Strange Thought on Boise State and Conference Realignment
I love the Matt floor. And, as always, almost every University has done some sort of upgraded graphics since the Matt was introduced. But comparing it to BSu's smurf turf, well the Matt is ours, so I think we can diss bsu for that and any number of reasons (comparing apples to prunes).

UCLA vs. Washington Game Thread
Actually, I think it was Jerry Azzinaro that was "forced out" if Chip wanted a new/extended contract a couple of years ago.

Well, what's a kicker to do?

Stanford Duck Syndrome–It’s Worse Than You Think
"And yes, even an incoming freshman in the first week of the first quarter is expected to be working on a startup." Either that, or they need to go "Holmes".

UCLA vs. Washington Game Thread
I confess, once I started watching I just couldn't root for ewe dub even though I previously said I would love to hang the first L on them.

Agreed. Too little time left and even if you make it, a TD is no sure thing.

WOW, What if the Pac 12 Went All-in with Amazon
Opps, 12 even a better chance.

WOW, What if the Pac 12 Went All-in with Amazon
That is a big club that most of us are in.

WOW, What if the Pac 12 Went All-in with Amazon
Great piece by Jon Wilner in his hotline, probably a pay site. He talks about partnerships in Media rights (which Amazon could re-sell pieces to espn, fox, etc); travel; merchandising; ticket brokering; food service; on and on. Good read.

Conference Realignment is Back in the Rumor Mill
Also, Dodd is a CBS guy who just happens to work for the company that secured BIG rights. Might him blowing smoke try to influence 1) UC regents in that hey, let ucla go since the other 4 will be following soon. 2) If the 4 join the BIG, then a West Coast division can be created and the travel issues minimized, so again Regents, set the Bruins free. 3) Torpedo current Pac 12 negotiations. 4) Click bait.

Go UCLA!
Tough one . . . a ewe dub with multiple losses or dash their hopes and ranking pinning them their first L. I guess I'll go 1st L.

Circa 2012: Lanning Replicates Bend-But-Don’t-Break Defense
There are lies, damn lies and statistics. The one statistic that counts is "scoreboard" and the end justifies the means! Keep these articles coming. Thx

Arizona State Football Coach Speculation Swirls Around Oregon Coordinator Kenny Dillingham
Let's see, dumpster fire program with unknown NCAA sledgehammer about to come down on Covid recruiting violations. LSU's situation was minor compared to ASU's ( LSU football program violated recruiting rules when a former assistant coach and former assistant director of recruiting met separately with a prospect during the COVID-19 recruiting dead period and provided the prospect with impermissible recruiting inducements.) ASU's was multiple recruits and families on campus and at least 4 staff members toast. Unless it is life altering money (of course, anything in 7 figures qualifies) why, why, why. Bid your time at Oregon and wait for a better P-5 situation, which comes around a few times a year.

Report: 4-star Oregon RB Dante Dowdell to Take Unofficial Visit to Ole Miss
I think it is based upon giving 110%, so there is a 10% leeway.

Oregon’s Red Zone Woes Are On Dillingham
"there are still a lot of lessons for Dillingham to learn. It is far more fun to learn those lessons through victory rather than defeat." Very true, and no one is going to call a perfect game. Just keep learning.

There Is More than One Way to Coug It
I DVR’d the game and started watching 1½ hours after it started. Towards the end of the half I almost checked on the real-time score as I didn’t want to waste my time on a train wreck, but then I remember how I sometimes like watching train wrecks and I held off. Best move I’ve made in years other than remembering anniversaries and birthdays. I agree, going for 2 that early was a mistake. I’m semi glad they didn’t make it so maybe it can be a teaching moment for the coaches. That and red-zone calls against that type of D. Are we waiting to spring a fade route later in the season?

Is Oregon STILL a Conference Champion Contender to You?
I like the growth we are seeing, mainly in the coaches. The players are adjusting to the new schemes and with two league cupcakes (Stanford at home, AZ road) in a row coming up and then a bye, followed by 3 more fairly easy doable contests (UCLA at home, Cal and CU road) sets things up nicely for the Huskies & Utes at home. Beavs D scares me a bit, but not Nolan. So, heck yes Pac 12 Champs and a Rose Bowl W in our future THIS year.
