OBD GameDay Discussion Thread vs. Stanford Join Us!
Stanford's players have been taking cheap shots all night. As soon as the game started they knew it was going to be a long night. No bowling for them this year.

Conference Realignment is Back in the Rumor Mill
Oregon will join the BIG10 the second they are offered. The media revenue payout alone would sustain the entire athletic department annually.

What if the Pac-12 Went ALL-Streaming? Could You Live With It?
10 yrs from now all sports will be streamed. The theater in my town shutting down is further proof. Viewing habits are changing and will continue to change.

Pac-12 Considering Partnership With Amazon
Online entertainment is kind of an outdated term. Everything is online. A game broadcast on Foxsports is also streaming on their app. Demand for sports has risen because it's one of the few entertainment options that's not scripted and the demand to view live entertainment as opposed to on-demand still remains. That's why the broadcast right's have been going up every time right's negotiation's come up. Provider's want the live entertainment because advertiser's value those broadcast's over non live which are usually watched on demand. They'll keep going up every few years as more and more entertainment moved towards on demand. Live Sports will continue to corner the broadcast market.

Thoughts About the Georgia Game (Now That Some Time Has Passed)
That wasn't a problem in Columbus last year with a 9AM west coast kick-off.

Kirby Smart: "We Got Better Players"
The truth is that Oregon will never recruit consistently at the clip Georgia does. No amount of NIL money or facilities upgrades can makeup for a lack of talent on the west coast that the southeast has in abundance. Georgia can put as may DL in one draft as Oregon has in a decade. Unless a large number of young blue chip country fed lineman start moving west of the rockies this issue will remain.

What's Better Than to Start a Season Watching Scott Frost Lose a Close One?
Frost is statistically now one of the worst decision makers in college football. He advertises his faults to opposing coaches and just repeats them over and over. Nebraska should have fired him last year. I wonder if he's still seeing that Oregon cheerleader or if he's moved on to another young college girl.

Is Lanning Taking Secrecy TOO FAR?
Chip was the ultimate lockdown coach when it came to information and access. I could be wrong but I remember the week leading up to the loss to Barkley and USC in 2011, Fentress or Jude or Grife was able to see a tenth of the practice field from a stair case that was a blind spot that hadn't been covered up yet and Chip spent all week being upset about it.

Bama, Ducks, Georgia Have The Most Starting Linebacker Talent In FBS
I think Washington will play a factor in the game. During his recruitment I was hoping Cristobal could reel him in.

Lanning Says He Doesn't Know If There's A QB Leader Post-Scrimmage
Lanning was never going to come out and say one QB is the leader. Competition is everything.

Raymond Pulido, Duck OL Target, Commits to Alabama
The kid picked Alabama because they've produced the most NFL draft picks over the last decade. Smart decision for himself.

Mario Cristobal--When the Knives Come Out
The discussion on Miami happened immediately after the Ohio State game. Herbstreit even asked Mario directly about Miami being a possibility a week after. Mario told him essentially there's nothing to add to that as of right now but maybe later. These deals always get started earlier than anyone or the media suspects.

Richard Young to Alabama
Kid was from Florida. He went to Alabama. Was always going to be a tough pull to get him to Eugene. Not surprised.

Does THIS Surprise You About Mario Cristobal?
The guy had an opportunity to return home and help resurrect his Alma mater as well as get paid very well. I would never hold a grudge against anyone in life who makes a choice to pursue that. I never took it personal. I've had an employer try to shame me for leaving and taking a better opportunity overseas. Best decision I ever made professionally.

Holy Crap! Pac-12 Conference Presidents Turned Down A BILLION DOLLARS?
Private Equity is not "sketchy". It's another method of investment and many companies products that people enjoy to this day survived because of P.E.

The Conference Dominoes Start with Notre Dame...in a Few Days
Oregon isn't going to settle for the Big12 or ACC. Oregon is BIG10 Bound. All financial losses from the 2020 Covid year will be wiped out in year one of joining them. It's happening. Just be ready for the whining from the local media river rat contingent. 😏
