OBD Prediction Contest vs. Stanford!
Mudslide replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
--the winner ... Ducks --the score ... 35 - 7 --the amount of turnovers Oregon creates ... 1 --the number of sacks Oregon records on the opposing team ... 3 --the number of passing yards by the Ducks ... 288 -
And now this. Sad state of fandom. Colorado State player, family receive death threats after hit - ESPN WWW.ESPN.COM Colorado State's Henry Blackburn and his family have received death threats after his late hit to Colorado star Travis Hunter, AD Joe Parker said.

My two broken ribs and the sequelae liver damage took 6 weeks before I was able to carry out normal tasks. (Included were 4 weeks of sleeping in a recliner chair.) Ouch. I, too, feel for the young man. I hope he has a brilliant football career.

It was certainly an unnecessary hit. The YouTube doc didn't notice the awkward landing of the knee. There looks to be possible tendon damage. Also, having suffered broken ribs and organ damage in a similar fashion, that hit under the pads on the right side appear to be a possible problem for Hunter.

Spectrum has the same issue ... OSU v. Wa.St. at 12.30 on ABC.

I just re-watched the game. David is completely correct. The TT o-line was holding like crazy. (Great article, David.) There were a number of other instances where officiating was .... Oh wait, Charles would boot me if I say what I think about that. So, I'll leave it at ... "It's early in the season. They'll get better." I hope. I too was encouraged by the d-line performance. They could be among the best we've seen since the Nick Reed days. (Of course, Nick and d-line friends were aided on the back side by the likes of Chung, Ward, Byrd, Thurmond, Matthews, and Paysinger.

Dan Lanning is SERIOUS About Michigan State?
Mudslide replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Yeah, just as soon as they pay off the coming lawsuits involving their fb coach. -
Dan Lanning is SERIOUS About Michigan State?

So ... besides inventing the steam engine, what does this James Watt(s) do? Oh wait. I see he keeps stats. Goodie for him. -
Ducks Disrupt in Lubbock: Penalties and Interceptions
Mudslide replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I checked back to 2000 (and had a cursory glance back to 1993). The following information came from Sports-Reference.com. TT beat no "prime" teams in that period. They won two OOC games of any consequence. One was AZ St (big deal, eh?) and SMU when the Ponies were ranked #24. That's it. The rest of the wins came from the SWC type conferences. They did appear in a gaggle of bowl games where they beat Miss. St. a couple of times. Assuming I missed nothing, I was NOT impressed by their OOC scheduling or winnings. I didn't read Crepea or Oram, but they didn't look all that closely if they were impressed. -
I'd like to chime in with something else here. It just grates on my nerves to hear the ubiquitous use of incorrect pronouns. Are they not teaching English any longer in American schools? Here is the worst type of offender ... "Me and Johnny are going to the game." Taking an icepick to my ears would be more pleasant.

No Sacks! No Defense! No Problem for Oregon
Mudslide replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Unfortunately, that was not the case in Charles' first video. Numbers 0, 1, and 2 were experienced starters, Johnson, Burch, and Bassa. They were biting on that qb fake like kids on Snickers bars. There were some bonehead coverages on that first drive by experienced players. I guess I'm with the plurality here ... namely that TL gets a substandard grade, at least for last season and the first PSU 'drive'. Also, some of the later incompletions were bad passes and not because of good coverage. BUT, that said, and overall, I thought the defense played pretty well and have given me hope for the season. -
I think TT did a fine job. But let us please reserve a tiny bit of our enthusiasm for his play ... and also that of the team. We'll certainly learn more against a team with a pulse. The PSU game was a great one for us to watch and I was joyous. But a celebration of expectation should more likely be a modulated atta-boy/team and some hope for the future. It's a LONG season and the PAC is loaded this year. Work is yet to be done. GO DUCKS!

Apparently Sling does not carry the PAC-12 Network. Are you keeping the cable in order to watch all things Ducks?

ACC adds Stanford, Cal, SMU as new members beginning 2024-25 - ESPN WWW.ESPN.COM The ACC presidents and chancellors met Friday morning and voted to add three schools -- Stanford, Cal and SMU -- beginning in the 2024-25 school year. It will bring the league to 18 members -- 17...

Thanks for the info on this game, gents. I, unfortunately, subscribe to Spectrum. They refused to pay Disney's asking price for their programming and Disney/ESPN shut down the feed...right at game time. There is no word on when we may (or may not) see ESPN again on Spectrum. Gads I hate cable. The only reason I'm not on DirecTV was to get the Duck games. Guess I'll have to find a decent streamer channel for sports or maybe go to Direct and fubo. Ugh........... I hate this stuff. Our cost increases for everything is getting out of hand.

The Season Starts as the Pac-12 Ends
Mudslide replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Fun article and it's good to have you writing again, Darren. But I have one BOne to pick with you. (Don't be a Barren-Darren.) Namely ... "BOwling for Heisman: Nah, invokes thoughts of beer-drinking slobs and a certain slob movie director. Would not work well in the minds of Heisman voters." I'll have you know that I was a respected professional TEQUILA-drinking slob BOwler. And we enjoyed the companionship of beer-drinking slob BOwlers. Although, they constantly threw their balls in the gutter. -
Apparently, there were 3 of us. I attended Cal in the early '60s, saw all of their (as well as Stanford's) games ... and oh woe is me. Those games were intolerable. I wonder if that's what started me drinking......

Why Does Week 0 Have to Suck this Bad???
Mudslide replied to David Marsh's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Your Honor, I believe that interest in my client, Week 0 Games, ranks well above, uh, zero. As evidence I enter into the record amazing and interesting upsets from last year's football season. App St. def. TAMU. Marshall def. Notre Dame (1/2 of a yea) So. Illinois def Northwestern Middle Tennessee def. Miami (full yea!) At least for me, I'll be watching the U$C game (well ... at least the first quarter) and hoping the Condoms get their butts handed to them by SJS (and Week 1, by Nevada). America loves underdogs and that's what makes eyeballs turn to these weird matchups. And lastly, you Honor, after an interminable offseason of conference deflation discussion, I would suggest that we'd even watch high school football games in order to get back to the game we love. We all only get a limited amount of football seasons in our lives. We, the Defense, say, "enjoy them to the max." Thank you, sir. Please find my client innocent of all charges. -
Will Stein’s Oregon Offense: Empty Diamond QB Draw RPO
Mudslide replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Thanks for another great and instructional article, Coach. Question: Can an additional RPO exist, namely the qb sprinting left toward the single receiver? This would seem to put extreme pressure on the db (and outside lb). -
He has had to quell rumors that he is unhappy with the Bruins and his NIL. Transfer rumors are in the wind. MSN WWW.MSN.COM
