Nice. Defense needs to come through here again.

Are they down to only Benson, Perry, and Lowe at WR?

McClellan is dinged up. Ugh.

There are two teams that worry me: tOSU and Georgia. Those teams just seem more complete than the others. I hope Oregon avoids those two teams as long as possible if they get in.

On the USC side of the trophy, can it say “we love living in the past” and list all their awards from the leather helmet days? USC has only beaten Oregon once in the last 13 years.

There we go! Moving in the right direction. Shelstad, Simpkins, Bittle, and Evans all looked very good in this win. I think we need one more to step up and join those 4 as the permanent starters going forward. I like Lindsay starting with that group, even though he struggled a little bit. He can slash and get to the rim and shot 42% from three his last year in JC and can stretch the floor. He is dangerous from everywhere. Plus he has the size and strength to help on the defensive side of the ball. Stewart and Pryor should be first off the bench and contribute significant minutes and that is exactly how it played out last night. From there, the bench is going to start shortening I suspect.

Oregon fragile? Now that is something. This is the issue when someone just looks at statistics and doesn’t watch games. Running for over 7 yards per carry in the pouring rain and beating one of the most physical defenses in the country in the final two minutes just screams “fragile”.

Ugh. Here comes the SEC narrative. Who wants to bet that both Oklahoma and Alabama are in front of the Ducks on Tuesday? And if Texas beats Georgia? Get ready for the “6 teams deserve to get in” nonsense from the media talking heads.

I thought they would try and run more and would not sling the ball around like they did. Moore and the skill players played fantastic. Two more to go.

Putting a LB in coverage on Sadiq is a losing proposition.

They will come around. A lineup of Shelstad, Simpkins, Lindsay, Evans, and Bittle looks very promising. Shelstad won’t be rusty forever and they will start to gel. Lin can’t shoot this bad forever. With him, Stewart, and Pryor contributing it will be fine. Maybe Phillips works his way in there, but after that I think the bench will shorten in a few weeks. Defensively they have the potential to be very good.

This is unreal. Is Lin going to start making some shots at some point?

And somehow Iowa will be ranked below every 3-loss SEC team come Tuesday. 😂

The crazy thing is that we should have guys that can shoot from deep. Shelstad, Lin, and Simpkins all shot better than 35% from three last year. Lin and Shelstad were both above 40% on catch and shoot threes. Phillips was a fantastic shooter in high school. He was north of 37% from three and won a state player award his sophomore season. He made 124 threes his freshman annd sophomore seasons. Also, while playing in a 4 game tournament for his U17 team he scored almost 30 PPG and shot 62% from three. Dude can clearly shoot. Lindsey has the best percentage of all of them, shooting 42% from three his last year in JC. We have shooters. I am not sure what the problem is.

What a great day to be a Duck!!! Washington eliminated from playoffs!!

Let’s go Wisconsin!!!

Is Iowa’s QB better than Moore?? It sure looks that way right now.

Boettcher having himself a game right now.

Talk about a shooting slump. Lin is now 1 for his last 18 shots. Yikes!!!

They are on fire now! FG% up to 31% 😂 Ducks lead 40-38. 11:49 left

Oregon down 5 at half. Shot 26% from the floor in the first half. They were in the bonus at 10 minutes left in the half but failed to take advantage. Lists of threes and contested jumpers.

Shelstad started. Night and day with ball movement right now. Ducks up early 20-15.

Oregon should win this game by double digits. This should be much easier than Hawaii, in theory.

Never! Go Northwestern! 🤣

Excellent news!! Any updates on Phillips?
