Agree. Pant lines looked too high. Should dress better with all those recruits at the game. Still, a good result.

And yet we are now second only to Utah among teams with with one loss. Some of those unbeatens ahead of us are NOT going to stay ahead of us with one loss.

Today's analyses around the country generally place us at No. 12, with Utah and USC ahead of us. Beat them both and we're up to No. 9 , with plenty of other opportunities to advance week by week as more unbeaten teams fall.

Georgia has a great program. What they're delusional about is the strength of the Duck program. They equate us to SEC bottom-feeders.

Cracks me up how lightly regarded the Ducks are to many of these SECers. I've seen many references among Dawg commentators to the fact that we got crushed by Utah twice last season, but ZERO references to our early season victory in Columbus.

Canzano has a bad habit of building a whole column around a compelling idea that he doesn't then dive deeper into --- in this case the notion that people aren't snickering at the conference anymore. OK, John, but why? ...

Actually an important game to get a first-round tournament bye.

Many may forget that Blount was provoked by in-your-face heckling from the BSU player he slugged.

I noticed the link to the clip in question no longer works. But here it is on YouTube:

Deserves another shot at starting somewhere. Here's a piece I wrote taking a Hawaii view of him as a Duck:

As a coach, I think I'd be less likely to bring in a guy who quit on his team mid-season.

Why are more and more players leaving teams mid-season -- can they immediately play somewhere else?

And ESPN's Playoff Predictor has Oregon's odds of making CFP if it wins out at only 45%.

Latest version of ESPN's Playoff Predictor still envisions two teams passing the Ducks even if they win out. UO given a 32 percent chance of making CFP at 12-1. This is contrary to virtually every other analysis.

And the announcers totally failed to acknowledge that even the piss-poor angles that ESPN offered up appeared to show the QB with the ball, across the goal line.

Yes so far no complaints about the playoff committee. But this, geesh. Glad I use Geico.

Moving up, but this "crystal ball" really undervalues a potential one-loss Pac-12 champion with a win over the Buckeyes.

The post updated today gives the Ducks only a 28% chance of making the playoff if they win out, including winning the conference championship game. https://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/page/cfbplayoffpredictor/cfb-playoff-predictor
