More Oregon WR Tez Johnson, shoulder, expected to return this year - ESPN WWW.ESPN.COM Oregon wide receiver Tez Johnson's shoulder injury is not a season-ender and he is expected to return to action at some point this year, sources told ESPN's Pete Thamel.

And, the D did this without it’s best player in Burch the last 2 games! Overall, UO has much to improve on, which should be scary to other teams. Ducks have had A grade results without yet playing an A game, in my opinion. Clean up the missed open receivers, the dropped passes, kicking game, dumb penalties, and tackling on D. Lord pity the team that sees our A game.

I actually thought maybe Lanning thought of this while watching hoops. The team that is ahead by 3 with few seconds left and fouls the other team to not let a 3 point shot occur. It is not without its risks, but… Pretty sure a buckeye coach did that once or twice…

I read this topic as I watched a basketball team intentionally commit fouls with 10 seconds left in the game to legally attempt to win a game. Which happens in many if not most close basketball games at all levels. I told my wife, “same thing.” Magically, she agrees.

You’d think blue blood buckeyes would know the rules, or at least self-police or correct in their own forums. It was easily PI per below definition. Per NCAA rule book 2024 source file: “Offensive pass interference occurs when an offensive player: Blocks Downfield: Engages in blocking downfield before the ball is touched when the pass is beyond the line of scrimmage. Pushes Off: Initiates contact with a defender to create separation in an attempt to catch a pass.”

Homer national journalists should have no place. Too much misinformation. And Oregon was more harmed by bad luck and refs. Missed more execution (botched kick holds, missed open WR for TD, etc). This was a 10 point Oregon expected win rate. Oregon had higher ceiling. Just needs to quit hurting itself. On the refs: that was clearly tOSU offensive PI push off to gain an advantage of space, textbook call. But they missed the opening drive interception for 7 point swing and wrongly calling ineligible UO receiver/formation cover up on a good gain. Lanning said UO submitted that play to league and was informed refs indeed got it wrong. Report that.

Huskies boat raced Beavs lose to Nevada Ducks beat Ohio St on College GameDay. Perfect day.

Don’t know why that double posted posted, sorry, tried to delete

Ok, needed all night to celebrate and let the blood pressure calm down. My takes: 1. Lanning does win big games. 2. Lanning and staff out coached Day and Chip. 3. Speaking of which, UO still undefeated vs Chip. 5-0. Keep him coming. 4. Coaching can still improve: don’t save a first half time out on that first drive non-called interception by not challenging it or taking timeout to look longer/give replay official more time to evaluate. Big miss = 7 points. 5. UO killed it on national stage. A+ on College GameDay, Autzen crowd noise (which was worth at least 3 points). Huge marketing boost which the win only amplifies for years to come with recruits. 6. UO has the talent to beat anyone. Even missing Burch for 4 quarters and Holden for 3. DG is elite. 7. TEs can do better. So can short yardage must-make play calling and execution. Not elite. 8. We beat Ohio St AGAIN! 9. Fine line between cocky and arrogant. See Holden. Did hear he was beyond distraught with his own behavior so much they had to have his dad come down from the stands to locker room. Big team lesson. 10. Remember when we were worried about the OLine?! Lol

2nd win in a row for Bo.

The new teams in SUC/SLACK 12 got only 1 win yesterday. And it was Boise crushing WAZZU.

Not talking about blocking improvement needed on the OLine is the best part. Could have gotten A grade if they clean up the procedure penalties in red zone. Receiving talent can step up more, too many dropped passes (including TEs here mainly Herbert). Besides James, need another RB to be productive. Noah and Lamar seem pedestrian. Home run threats? Play calling: still feels Stein is holding back, hopefully intentionally for later like Chip used to do. DEF: studs. Reed got picked on, need to see how team adjusts or if injury recovery from others helps soon I keep asking this: WHAT is going on with Jurrion Dickey? We had been told he’d be good to play in September from the spring game leg injury. We also heard he was crushing it in camp. He is crickets now.

More truth, yet comedy gold.

Oh the irony. UNLV and Air Force rejected Pac2 to stay in MWC via the MWC giving them stolen PAC $ they got from Beavis and Coug. PAC leadership is being outplayed, again.

Fair article, I’d likely put Texas there too given current situation. But proof is in the pudding on remarks about location being off base. 1. UO’s reach and influence is broad, does not need nor has relied on Oregon high schoolers. 2. UO owns California so much that USC talks more about UO recruiting than they do about USC. 3. High schoolers coast to coast have Oregon hat on the table. “Dream school” “The place to be” 4. Best marketing in the business, will always be present.
