  1. Talk about a coach who earned it.
  2. I like the fact that, so far, we have beaten 3 of the 7 teams in the playoffs.
  3. If the kids like them, then I love them. Just win, baby!
  4. 38-27 OBD T-Minus 57 hours and counting.
  5. Will they still have stickers on their helmets? I really liked getting those... in 7th grade.
  6. Nice warm up game for the Ducks as a couple very good teams come to town next - Illinois on 01/02, and Maryland on 01/05. 12-1 and beginning to play some really good ball.
  7. I'm amazed at what Dilly has done down here... and in less than two years. But unfortunately, and while I hope I am wrong, I am fairly confident that they are going to get rolled by Texas tomorrow. Regardless, Dilly & Co have had an amazing season. And their future looks bright. Alumni are very excited down here and are going to come up with the money to keep him.
  8. If I was Cam Ward, with so much at risk, I would have simply completely passed on playing in that meaningless bowl game. However, to step onto the field with the apparent sole intent of breaking a record, and then leave your teammates hanging in the wind as you walk off into the sunset with your record and impending wealth, is my definition of bs. If your going to choose to step onto the field -- for your own glory, at least don't abandon your teammates in the process.
  9. Mario "TO" Cristobal Dude's a master time out caller.
  10. Hopefully, our Ducks run Weber State out of the building. Should be a fun game to go and watch at home.
  11. Kiffin is not only continuing with his whine-fest, he seems to be accelerating. Maybe he just does not understand that he needs to lose fewer games.

  12. Will Howard: "The way that last one ended doesn't sit right with me..." Yeah... I can imagine, given that they guy was a total bone-head in the last and most critical play of the game. He's probably trying to figure out a way to blame his garbage decision making on Oregon as well.
  13. Yeah... the nearly 4 weeks off (25 days) is just too damn long. But, if anyone can get these guys fired up and ready to rock-n-roll from the get-go, we all know that it is Dan Lanning. And they will be ready from the get-go.
  14. 100% spot on. We got one sack on him in the first game, and several hurries, but we're gonna need more than that this time.
  15. I appreciate that we are in the throes of winning a football National Championship, however, I'm hoping we can multitask just a little bit. Our Men's hoopsters are 11-1, ranked Top-10, have the best winning % in the Big Ten, and are just starting to gel and play as a team... in December! That usually doesn't start happening for our Altman teams until late February or March . So far, they've beaten 3 strong Top-20 teams, and the only loss has been to Top-20 UCLA. We've got two excellent Big Ten home games coming up, which fall perfectly between our upcoming January 1st Rose Bowl victory, and then our January 10th semi-final win. 01/02 - Illinois 9-2 01/05 - Maryland 10-2 Both of these teams are playing some excellent ball and these should both be great games. Illinois just lost to #1 Tennessee by 2. Let's make Matthew Knight Arena an actual home court advantage. If you can make it to the game, I hope you'll show up and support them.

  16. Hmmm... how do I politely put this. Ummm -- Screw them. Bottom line is that if we beat osu, we're going to win the championship.
  17. These Ducks are going to make this an exciting season. 10-1 with 3 impressive wins over Top-20 programs. Currently ranked #8 in the power rankings. GO DUCKS!
  18. If the OSU players like their coach, talk about a little extra motivation: "Guys - if we lose, I get fired."
  19. Having nearly 4 weeks off (25 days) between games is definitely too long.
  20. One thing I'm reminded of is that although we beat osu previously, we really did not play a great game. We left a lot of meat on the bone and made quite a few mistakes... and yet we still won. I think we will clean up the mistakes for New Year's Day, and we have a great shot at beating them for a second time this season.
  21. Including Oregon, there are 8 teams remaining in the playoffs. Name the only team remaining who has beaten 3 of them.
  22. They looked really good, and it's still so early in the season. They are beginning to gel.
