And thankfully they also lose their senior QB Tommy Mollett to using up his eligibility. He was that team. 195 yards passing, 135 rushing. 3 total TDs. Fast and good arm. Only other contributors gave 38 yards and 27 yards rushing, respectively (on 22 shared carries). Defense did not impress. Not worried about the Fall.

Wish him the best. But sure feels he saw what Dante and others can do and was exposed to the work expectations.

The 4 bye teams gave up 85 of the first 91 points, all in losses. Say that out loud. Not a fluke. That is clear evidence that Rust matters. Even NFL does max 2 week byes in the NFL playoffs (and that team gets a home game).

Just brutal, it is sad. But vindicates the 2 UO coaching staffs who indicated he is not the guy. Tulane had 2 former 5 stars at WR including Mario Williams, yet Ty was beyond ineffective, missing wide open guys. Still looks dazed and confused, not able to process defenses nor go through progressions correctly. He should accept Tulane coach’s offer to stay and be the occasional wildcat Tayson Hill role as a back- up. This “ showcase” start just scared away even any legit group of 5 team looking at Ty in the portal.

Good for him!

Best quote I read today, “Following a 6-6 season, USC has had 18 players enter the transfer portal since it opened on Dec. 9.”

I do feel a top notch portal QB has to always be part of the strategy, along with HS recruiting. But also only if there is a match. Currently, not much in portal. Was not over the moon for Mateer and he followed his O coach to Sooners today. Maybe after bowls and player interest.

Prime Time brought his son on stage with him and Travis in Introductions. Poor form.

and even with a much tougher gauntlet and better results… Dillon QBR #2 in nation Sanders is hovering around 20, not far from guys like Tyler Shough and the dude from Syracuse. Lol

Voters signaling they don’t even have a QB in their top 3. Look for Skattebo to be close to top 4.

Colorado strength of schedule is in the 70s. Dillon beat three playoff teams (so far)

A more apt name is Cam Falling. No thanks, too CONSISTENTLY hurt. Even my Utah buddies want to move on from him.

That author writes, “a quibble could be offered that the Ducks didn’t square up with much quality opposition beyond Ohio State at Autzen Stadium” Why is nobody mentioning Oregon is the only team to play and beat 3 different playoff teams?! And beating #4 in playoff rankings while ~2000 miles from home is not quality opposition?! Its like they don’t pay attention on purpose.

Fan Duel odds changed to reflect the unbalanced seeding with Texas being put on Cotton Bowl side of bracket despite losing (and National Championship being in Georgia). Georgia +360 Texas +360 Oregon +380 Ohio St +500 3 of those on same side of bracket.

I took a moment to think back to that 1995 Rose Bowl against #2 Penn State, simply being happy to even be in that environment. And now we beat them and expected to win, going undefeated winning their conference. How far the ducks have come…still more to achieve.

His nose was so far up Penn St’s butt he could smell what they had for lunch. Poor form.

Great teams find a way when not everything is working right. This team did that. And despite not playing it’s best, the D did get two clutch picks to seal this. The O reminded me of Chip‘s. Felt they could do anything they needed.

It feels this will look different after this weekend. Just focus on winning B1G. That said, this easily looks like a bracket set up with North side getting B1G into final and south side getting SEC into final. Top teams from each league are on same side of each other’s bracket. The 2 Power brokers at work to ensure each gets into Natty.

Big Ten Sideline Sports Network account labels this as #2 vs #4. Hmm, someone call the marketing and communications departments.

Good day to be a Duck, but not to be a Day.

10 sacks against a very mobile QB. D was beastly. Glad the O got rolling again, and agree still not an A game for them. Plenty of growth available. Honestly, relatively vanilla play calling since Ducks ran down their throats. Hardly any long shot needed or used. Yes Holden had one for 39 but was mostly run after catch. TFerg for 21 but was on a Free play due to offsides. Rolling up 49 with foot on the brakes was pretty cool. Besting Huskies again, always cool.

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…
