Oregon Ducks Football: What We Learned in Ann Arbor
Smith72 replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Thanks for being a FishDuck writer Alex. Count me as one of many who are concerned about the 3rd quarter too. That is a problem, but I do realize that others teams have a part in contributing to this. They make halftime adjustments too. They are coached up and make changes in their pregame plans. It takes some time to figure that out. They also have pride and a desire to get back in the game. The BIG teams we have played have good players and good coaches. Our Duck coaches have prepared our players to handle them well. I do have trust in Coach Lanning and his staff! Go Ducks! 9 wins and 0 losses! One win at a time. -

The Bend-But-Don’t-Break Defense is WORKING?
Smith72 replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I would call it a "Limit explosive plays and make life miserable defense" for an offense to go against. I feel that Nick Aliotti did not receive credit for the Duck success during the Bellotti and Kelly years of great offense. Man could they get after people. Coach Lanning and staff is causing havoc. I trust in Lanning. -

"...The last comment is how damaging a penalty can be. Without the penalty on Caldwell, it is a change of possession..." Caldwell is #90. Harmon is #55. Penalty was on Harmon. I give Harmon a pass on the penalty. He was just starting his motion to lift and throw the guy down when the whistle blew. Bad timing, but in the heat of the moment I understand.
