  1. A few years back, I attended a game at Rice Eccles against Utah. It was a black out, but as a Duck fan, I didn't follow the rules. Can you spot me? I was treated well by 99.9% of the fans and had a good time tailgating with Utah fans I had just met.
  2. --the winner -- Ducks!!! --the score -- 38 - 20 --the amount of turnovers Oregon creates -- 1 --the number of sacks Oregon records on the opposing team -- 4 --the number of passing yards by the Ducks. -- 337
  3. Ducks 38-24 1 TO by Fuskies 3 sacks by Ducks 303 Duck passing yards Go Ducks!!!
  4. Ducks 34-3 1 Cardinal TO 5 Ducks sacks 259 passing yards Go Ducks!!!
  5. I was listening on the radio on the way home from Autzen and the announcers stated that Colorado won the toss and elected to take go on offense first. Also, under the new rules, teams have to go for 2 starting with the second OT. Starting with the third OT, teams ONLY attempt two point conversions.
  6. My understanding is as follows: 1) Colorado won the toss and elected to take the ball first (an unconventional and IMO an unwise decision). 2) Therefore, CSU was able to make the selection for the second OT and elected to play defense first.
  7. Not a good idea in my opinion to take the ball first in OT. But under the new rules, a team has to go for 2 in the second OT. Starting with third OT, the teams only attempt 2 point conversions.
  8. Ducks 48-17 2 Rainbow Warrior TOs 4 Duck sacks 273 passing yards Go Ducks!!!
  9. I don't disagree, but it's my understanding that there are significant liabilities (namely overpayment by Comcast and maybe continuing lease obligation in SF office?). I wonder what is the net result of the accounting of assets and liabilities. Should be easy to determine, but from what I have read (no inside knowledge whatsoever), it doesn't seem like the Pac-12 offices have their s*** together to provide that calculation. If true, another example of how poorly the higher ups operated the conference.
  10. Ducks 52-21 2 Red Raider TOs 2 sacks by the Ducks 355 passing yards Go Ducks!!!
  11. Charles, have a great time in an amazing venue! And then do it again and again and again … Go Ducks!!! Vai Patos!!! (I’ve started to learn Portuguese)
  12. Ducks 55-13 Ducks create 2 turnovers Ducks get 5 sacks Ducks pass for 373 yards. Go Ducks!!!
  13. To me, Florida’s OL play wasn’t just assignment errors that can be easily fixed. It looked like a real weak spot.
  14. Whoops, my BAD Oregon. You said exactly that and I misread your post. Please accept my apology. Go Ducks!
  15. Oregon, I agree with you completely regarding the purpose of the Bo billboards. But Joey's billboard literally promoted him for the Heisman.
  16. I quickly scanned the rosters of the Buffaloes and the Ducks and if the weights listed on the rosters are accurate and my math is correct, CU has 10 players 300 lbs or heavier and the Ducks have 29 players 300 lbs or heavier. Heavier does not necessarily mean better, but it certainly helps to have some beef up front.
  17. Sabrina talking about the cancellation of the 2020 women's basketball tournament: “I don’t think I’ll really be able to get over it for a long time” Me neither, Sabrina. Me neither.
  18. Ducks’ departure from Pac-12 has some Oregon lawmakers ready to act WWW.OPB.ORG One week after the University of Oregon announced it’s departure to the Big Ten, people are still grappling with the news and its unclear impacts on the state.
  19. Watched the game yesterday. No doubt Phillipina has improved and will be very important piece to the puzzle this year (especially with Sedona out). However, in my opinion, she is not yet a player you can get the ball to on the block and expect a bucket. She shot 6-13 and I don't believe any of her shots were outside of the block. It's early in the season and she will continue to improve and it will be fun to watch her grow. If she becomes nearly automatic in the post, that will really open the outside for shooters such as Rogers. I don't know enough about the top women's college basketball teams to declare that the Lady Ducks are a top 10 team, but I will declare that they should make the tournament and have the tools to make deep run. Go Ducks!!!
  20. Like many, I thought the D would be better than it was and the O struggle more than than it did. More specifically, I predicted that the combination of Dorlus, Johnson, Sewell and Landing’s creative schemes would result in the Ducks’ D living in the opponents’ backfield. In reality, the Ducks’ D got very little pressure on opposing QBs. I also thought for sure Cardwell would have a breakout season!
  21. As an almost 54 year old life long Duck fan, I appreciate and understand the premise of Charles' article that an injured QB can derail a season. Lots of examples, but Dennis Dixon is Exhibit A. However, I firmly believe that every team should play to win, not play not to lose. I've been a basketball coach for almost 3 decades and practice what I preach. While I agree that running a QB between the tackles has a higher degree of risk, and should not be used repeatedly, if it gives the Ducks an advantage in the game I think it is incumbent on the coaches to use that advantage. I'm also in favor of taking reasonable risks on 4th downs. It's worked most of the season, with the exception of the late 4th down attempt against the Fuskies (which I believe should have been a sneak by Ty under center). Nothing works all of the time, but I am in favor of keeping the pedal to the mtetal and putting pressure on the opposing D as much as reasonably possible and I hope coach Lanning never loses his aggressive tendencies. My $0.02. Your mileage may vary. Go Ducks!!!
  22. I agree that the return of the injured guards will help a lot (and allow Richardson to play more off the ball). And while the team is struggling to shoot the ball, in my opinion their defense is much improved over last year. Hopefully the improved defense can carry the Ducks until injured players return. But Houston on Sunday is no joke!
