What to Know About Upcoming Playoff Changes…
Thanks Jon for today's article which should bring a great deal of discussion! Too bad that the NCAA doesn't run the CFP like it does for all other levels. Home games for the first two rounds would be a vast improvement for fans and a reward for teams with a good record. Making a highly ranked team travel thousands of miles cross country to a Bowl site is absurd for the early rounds. Home games this year was a good beginning. I appreciate your contributions and knowledge to OBD Forum. Thanks!

2026 Recruitment, Announcements, Interviews, Etc. (8)
It's nice that Poncho will be back to lead the offensive line, and several backs up saw significant snaps. But the offense needs more big bodies up front. Bennett from Yale may help at Tackle.

GameDay Thread No. 3 of Oregon vs. Indiana
I agree about Will Stein. Too many sideline out patterns (difficult throw and terrible if QB throws to the inside), and too many screens to the sideline for me. For the most part Dillingham was good. But I was disappointed in his quick departure after the loss to Oregon State. The two of them seem to be "birds of a feather" leaving the Ducks and not finishing their job.

Are We REAL Oregon Fans, or Bandwagon Fans?
Thanks Wood Duck! I feel that our offensive coordinator did not prepare well for these last two games. I take hope that the new coordinator for the offense takes a long hard look at the game plans, go to the doctor, and grow from the hard lessons from this season. Grew up in Eugene since the 2nd grade in elementary school and graduated from Oregon. So, long time Duck fan. I will always be a Duck fan! I'm so happy for the 27-3 Ducks under Coach Lanning's leadership!

How Oregon Will Defeat Indiana in the ‘Natty Semi-Final
Thank you Mike for your insights and knowledge of football that you share with us Duck Fans! The picture you have at the top of the article definitely shows Washington guarding the sidelines. I sure hope that Dante has been trained this second half of the season to take advantage of that (along with Will Stein). I always enjoy reading your take on Our Beloved Ducks!

Urgent: Dan Lanning Needs to Protect Dante Moore
Excellent documentation Mike Whitty! Coach Cignetti was definitely playing the refs the whole game. His long career has helped him craft that skill set. Thank you for writing today's article! This picture should have earned him a 15 yard Unsportsmanlike Penalty! Getting a mere 2 or 3 inches nose to nose to a Referee and yelling into his face is not acceptable.
