2025 Oregon Ducks: Conference and Playoff Contenders? ... Duhhhh, yeah!

Fascinating video. I was surprised at how modern and powerful the Houthis' systems are. I was also surprised by how much info on the US capabilities it puts out there. I guess none of it is "secret" anymore.

That is bologna. They were paid to be actors. It is a legit employment.

One thing that I think that they got right: The Rose Bowl was the de facto National Championship Game. The fact that the anOSU ran over the Ducks in that game does not mean that the Ducks were not #2. Look at what happened in the Super Bowl... Did KC deserve to be in that game? Of course they did... but it looked very similar to the Rose Bowl. Kansas City was completely overmatched in that one game. Anything can happen when you have to play the game.

Amen: Decision-making is what separates QBs in my opinion. They all have talent, but when to throw and where.... ...and learning to read defenses,,, an extremely important part of making good decisions.

This seems kind of funny because, when DL hired Samples, a whole lot of people questioned the decision. Now Samples seems to be a very hot commodity.

Great play! And a great article David!

WS is young and still learning. So is DL. Nobody expects a guy to be a well seasoned veteran after two years on the job. This year the Ducks went 12-0 in the regular season and 1-1 in the post season. We finished the season with more wins than the National Champions --- and one of those wins was against the National Champions. That is a pretty satisfying season. Next year DL will be a little better and so will Will. I'm sure glad we have them both.

Great read. A whole lot of information without a lot of verbiage.

Dallas can blame that D@%m grass in Eugene...

DL's defense has been evolving since day one and still is. The players he had in year one were no where close to being able to execute what DL wanted to install. "Out with the old, in with the new." Year two we saw a huge turnover in personnel on defense, and a little more in year 3. Most of the high schoolers that DL has recruited over the last 3 years have yet to see any meaningful game time. Several of those will likely never see the field, as Dan is trying to find those who fit. I believe that we will not really see the defense that Dan envisions until year 5 or 6... maybe even year 7. Until then, I am going to continue to enjoy the ride... and the steady improvements in all three phases of the Ducks' game. '

All in favor, say, "Aye"

Agree. To me he was saying that it was so loud it was unbelievable (¿How could it be that loud without pumping in noise? - yet it was.) Maybe someone in the B1G will start believing that Autzen noise can actually affect the play on the field. I think the coaches are starting to think about it.

Hmmmmmmm. I'm going to have to spend the evening scratching out the math...

3 is good!

Both of them are real stinkpots.

Why No Luxury Suites at Matthew Knight Arena? Simple: They knew that I would not be interested.

10 days seems to work well. More time to heal between games. More time to study and plan against the next opponent. Time for at least one more practice.

THIS is absolutely what CFB should do.

Cignetti is a very good coach. The fact that he is prepping now for the toughest matchups he has next year during the regular season is smart. That is exactly what DL is doing. This is a very losable game for the Ducks, and they better go into it prepared for battle.

How can you not like a guy named "SAVAGE" playing on defense??

Big-10 Ted has been an Oregon fan for a while, me thinks.

13 wins this year. It would be nice to finish with 14 next year... especially if it includes a National Championship.

Only if he goes to the Buccaneers.

Bo-dacious.
