Desert Duck

I don't mean to be a Debbie-Downer, but what a sad, sad, cautionary tale. He was one of the most gifted athletes I've ever seen in the many decades I've been on this planet -- full stop. I hope he found the help he needed. But Ps. Yes, I feel it!

And sorry to inform you, Mr. Riley, but your we "lost by fewer than 20 points" is fake news. You lost by 28 points to ND, Mr. Riley. Scoreboard, baby!

USC is a horrendous 1-5 since mid-October. And their only win was 50-49 over a rather lousy Cal team. I did a quick cursory review, and over the past 100 years, that's only happened to USC 5 times. But oddly, it's happened 3 times in just the past 5 years. How sweet it is.

More importantly, without any of our stud starters getting serious injuries (as far as I know, anyway).

"... 404 yards and a half-dozen scores both through the air and on the ground." I like the article, but want to let the change this guys above line to correctly read: "... 404 yards and a half-dozen scores through the air." Full stop.

Bo made a rather decent ASU defense look very slow, and like perhaps like they had been out on Mill Street Friday night doing tequila shooters. Bo was like a football quarterback master surgeon on Saturday as he skillfully and methodically filleted ASU wide open. But that's where the surgeon metaphor ends, because he certainly didn't put them back together.

I'm not sure if I know anyone who still doesn't refer to the Civil War game, as the Civil War game. Sometimes, as hard as 'they' try, they're just not going to make a ridiculous change attempt stick.

Absolutely agree. For some reason on my part, I just felt the need to throw some trash talk toward Cane fans and Mario

The stud-beast-dude also had an 83% pass completion rate yesterday. His numbers across the board this year are absolutely insane... such as his TD to INT numbers of 35 to 2. And arguably, if there was a rating for team leadership skills, his numbers would likely be first in the nation.

I had to look at their schedule after reading your comment, and you are spot on. I had no idea regarding the exceptional cupcake schedule they had this year. Oh Chip... after leaving Oregon, what has become of you

Given that we're playing two strong ranked teams to finish the PAC-12 season, and the amount of serious pleasure I'm enjoying from USCs high-speed-come-apart, I can live with the SOS concern.

Somebody had tossed a prediction out there of 66-0... which I'm pretty sure was a joke and I laughed. However, after that second quarter, I was no longer laughing, as indeed, if we had wanted to, we could have easily put up those kind of points. But what a great contest this week. Congrats to the within 5 points guys.

McCaffrey was over-the-top totally screwed by powers that be. And thank goodness that Mario (MC-land... Where QBs go to die) wasn't around to do his best to attempt to ruin Bo, him like he tried to do to Herbert.

100% spot on. If you look at espn.com, and many others, it's almost like Oregon didn't even play yesterday... let alone utterly dismantle an ASU team on the road, who had just beaten UCLA the week before.

Luv Kenny D. But perhaps the biggest W he could have ever gotten at ASU came last week, as ASU finally got rid of their garbage 'Larry Scott Wanna-Be AD,' Ray Anderson. That guy, and his scandal ridden tenure, nearly single-handedly ruined the Big-3 ASU sports. When there are literally billboard trucks driving around Tempe that say, "#FireRayAnderson," it might just suggest that your time is up. So glad for Kenny and the ASU program.

Who is stronger... Superman or The Hulk. The correct answer is: Yes

As long as he plays the next two games anywhere remotely close to how he has played in every game this year, the Heisman is now his. And I cannot ever remember seeing a first half performance in a college game like he had yesterday. Ever.

Well played by the Beavs and the Cougs, especially considering how little they had to work with. Hanging onto the PAC, while walking away with a nice, cool, $100 Million each, is not a horrible consolation prize. It will also likely open up some other conference possibilities for them as well.

Oddly, and in the realm of 'It's a small world,' I just consumed and entire horse last week. But thanks for clarifying things for me... because especially when I don't know somebody, I find it hard to hear their tone sometimes by reading what they've written. But the bottom line for me is that this Saturday, the Ducks are going to kill the Beavers, then gut them, and roast them over an open spit in the parking lot (and just case, allow me to clarify that this last statement, along with my first one, is hyperbole).

Luv Kenny D. And I could not be happier for him that last week ASU finally got rid of their garbage 'Larry Scott Wanna-be AD,' Ray Anderson. That guy, and his scandal ridden tenure, nearly single-handedly ruined the Big-3 ASU sports. It's usually not considered a good sign when there are billboard trucks driving around Tempe that said, "#FireRayAnderson." So glad for Kenny and the ASU program.

Arizona has really surprised me this year... and pretty much everyone down in the desert as well. I don't know anyone who expected them to field a strong team. And 2 of their 3 losses were in OT. Of their 3 season losses, they were by a combined average of about 5 points, so they've been competitive in every game this season. Right now, Arizona is a bit like a Diamondback... not to be messed with.

There's no question that the Ducks should take down the RiverRats. But they certainly stand a chance.

Worst PI penalty. I think that's the kind of crap penalty they call when you're up 42-0.

Not a chance I'm rooting for the Huskies tonight. I just want them to win.

In the new millennium, @ Arizona State, we have lost once in September, once in October, and once in November.
