  1. Thanks, Charles for the kind words.  More importantly, thank you for the opportunity to participate in the OBD forum. 
     

    I can’t help but note that both teams missed a field goal or otherwise I would have nailed the score.  
     

    Last, but not least, to all those Duck fans who are wringing their hands over missed tackles, missed blocks, etc., I hear you.   But I recommend that you take a step back and appreciate that OBD just SHUT OUT a team, are 7-0, and will be ranked #1 or #2.  OBD have come a long way since I was a young lad cheering for Reggie Ogburn and the Ducks were running the triple option.   What a great time to be. Duck!  ENJOY!

     

    Go Ducks!!!

    DUCK LIPS??

    I've been looking online and haven't found anything saying duck lips or noise makers are not allowed in Autzen.

    I know the Pac 12 a few years ago made it a rule.

    I think have have some old duck lips I'll bring to go along with my FA (ala ala) sound.

     

    I brought and used by Duck Lips for the Boise State game and no one said anything.

  3. I compared the box scores of the Ohio State v MSU and OBD v MSU games and was struck by how eerily similiar the statistics for both games were.  Do what you wish with this information.

  4. I admit it.  I cried watching that video, thinking of the people in my life who I lost to cancer and my sister who is currently battling cancer.  It was a good reminder that win or lose on Saturday (and we’re gonna win!), I am fortunate that I have my health and can enjoy watching college football without worrying about my next chemo treatment.  
     

    F**k cancer!  Go Ducks!!!

  5. With the respect to some of the rotations, I believe that the coaches are planning for a loooooong season.  If the Ducks make the B1G championship game and lose, and then go on a run in the playoffs to the finals, they could play an unprecedented 17 games.  That's a lot of wear and tear and depth will be critical.

     

    And for the record, I'm not disappointed.  I love victories, regardless of how pretty or how ugly.  It's all about the "W" and OBD have yet to suffer a "L".  Go Ducks!!!

  6. I've really enjoyed a lot of the games previously mentioned -- the 2002 Fiesta Bowl blowout of Colorado, the 2011 Rose Bowl win over Wisconsin (I got teary eyed in the stands) and the 2015 Rose Bowl win over Florida State.

     

    The 1997 win at Fusky Stadium and the 2006 win over Oklahoma also rank way up there for me.

     

    But I think my all-time favorite Duck victory is the 1990 win over the #4 ranked BYU Cougars.  Very few people gave the Ducks any chance.  The weather was perfect.  The atmosphere was electric.  The crowd was loud. B - Y - WHO???   B - Y - WHO???  The Ducks dominated and the post-game parties (I was 21 years old) were epic.  Great memories.
