The same fans who booed AB's crappy passes were the same ones cheering when he ran in for a TD. Too many IPA's? Maybe. Or do they feel just arrogant enough to think they know more than the coaches?
I was in the stands in row 43 sec 12 and I guaranty the players and coaches heard the boo's followed by the "Put in TY" yells going on around me. So they knew what the boo's were for.
I'm not a big fan of booing at players. From what I saw most played their guts out. AB's in the game trying his hardest because MC wants him there. It's not fair to him to hear the TY chants. He's just doing what he's asked to do with the best of his ability.
This is all on the coaches and all displeasure should be directed at the coaches.
I doubt if booing will make a difference in the long run. Low attendance at games will.

Game day should fire up the Bruin players and fans. Lots of players from Cali so they should be fired up too.
What's the Ducks record when they're the away team when "Game Day" is there? Not that it maters or maybe it does.
I would like to see some new names on the field next Sat but I'm betting it'll be the SOS again.
Will MC be outcoached? Probably.
Will the Ducks that beat Ohio St please show up.

It could be worse. Ducks could be 1-5 and boring. I don't know if I'd call it boring. For me it was more frustrating than boring. Being at the game I got the sense that at least the fans around me were more pumped when the D was on the field.
Clean up the penalties and it would've been a different game.
It was clear though that what we're seeing is what we'll get for the rest of the season unless AB gets hurt.

At what point does Mario insert TT? If the Ducks are in a close game into the 3rd qtr and get up but 10-14 I highly doubt Mario puts TT in.
Only way I see TT getting time is if the Ducks are up by 21 in the middle of the 4th qtr or AB gets hurt.
Now if for some miracle TT starts then all bets are off.
I'm just using TT as the example.
I'm actually thinking our run game will improve to night.

I'll wear whats in my closet. The Ducks have some cool uniforms and all but there's something to be said for a color coordinated traditional look in the stands where everyone wears the same colors every game. Maybe they don't have Nike money influencing them. A sea of red or red and white or (insert color) vs a Kaleidoscope of colors is IMO a better look.

If the Ducks were 5-0 and played like a then #3 team I bet the fan forums would be rocking. The Furd loss sucked what little enthusiasm was left. Mediocre play calling and mediocre team play and there's not a lot to get excited about. How bad is it when fans are wondering if the Ducks will beat Cal or barely beat Cal or blow them out?

I've been a Duck fan since the early 80's. Had season tickets off and on until 2009. Now we just buy a couple single game tickets and pick ones we want to watch. Went to the FS game and what a downer. Yes the Ducks won but could they make it look any harder?
We have tickets to the Cal game. Told the wife this morning that if we hadn't bought the tickets I'd be just as happy staying home. Sitting there for 3.5 hrs watching the Ducks stumble like a 6-6 team doesn't sound like a fun way to spend a nice fall evening.
I predict 2 more losses. P12 Champ game and at least one other game along the way.

I believe Chip Kelly would not have gone with AB. He would have went with TT. Used maybe RA or JB as the backup, but have AB help guide the other QBs due to his experience. But, not sure if Chip would have used the transfer portal to get AB with the talent of QBs already on his list to use.
I think with having the week off and playing CAL the following week, this would have been a good opportunity to prepare TT to play the majority of the game against CAL. As someone said, CAL will stack the box due to AB's inaccuracies in the passing game. With TT the threat is there to burn CAL in the passing game. Would make a difference in the running game.
Without JM there to help tutor TT IMO it's highly unlikely TT would start.

However, the fact that we man handled tOSU on their home field says to me that there is no way Ohio State should ever be ranked above us when we have the same record.
Well maybe Ohio St got their stuff together. Looks like the Ducks are back sliding. Is Ohio St better now than when they played the Ducks. The Ducks are clearly worse now. Teams change and get hot or cold. Lets hope Oregon didn't peak during the Ohio St game.
I would add that if they played now, Oregon would lose.

It'll never happen as long as MC is coach. Barely counting last year, he's had four seasons to develop an offensive style that could win an NC. His style is a consistent mess when it comes to clock management and play calling. I've seen games where Oregon's got the kickoff and on the 1st series he's already calling a time out. That kind of mismanagement is what will keep him out of an NC game. In fact unless the CFP is expanded I don't ever see MC taking the Ducks to the CFP's.

Can barely stand to watch them when they're at home on TV. That gawd awful chainsaw crap is so back woods irritating. I like to see them lose but sometimes I do root for them like the last game against UW. Definitely root for them in bowl games like I do for every other P12 team except UW. Needless to say I'm already nervous about this years CW game. Or whatever it's called.
It’s Okay to Be Disappointed With Mario Cristobal
in Our Beloved Ducks
Not disappointed. Frustrated yes. Hard to be disappointed being 5-1. Easy to be frustrated at how they got there. I said way back that
anything but the P12 title and a trip to the Rose would be a huge disappointment. I'm sticking with that.
