I love Tez but his comments just come off as sour grapes, at this point. Just tip your hat to the opponent and say that they beat you.

Ohio State’s inside linebacker, Donovan Jackson, is projected to be a first round draft pick. Excluding the DL, Cody Simon (LB), Denzel Burke (CB) and Lathan Ransom (S) are also projected to be drafted in the 2025 NFL draft. This does not include their young stud safety (or other underclassmen) who will be a first round draft pick when he is eligible for the NFL Draft. Ohio State had a dominant line but they are loaded everywhere (they consistently bring in top 5 recruiting classes). Being dominant up front but sucking on the other two levels is not a recipe for success. 2025 NFL mock draft: Abdul Carter goes No. 1 despite foot injury; Jayden Daniels gets new weapon in pass game - CBSSports.com WWW.CBSSPORTS.COM A handful of new faces join the first-round projection as the NFL combine is...

I agree with that to a degree, but to be elite you need to be solid at all 3 levels. Oregon had a very good defensive line last year (probably one of the best in school history) but you need linebackers who can play the right run fits (Penn State game) and a secondary that doesn’t allow receivers to run free down the field (Rose Bowl). Lanning and staff are recruiting at an extremely high level but we’ll see if they are able to develop the dudes. Bama and Georgia just looked different particularly in the front 7.

The PAC should sign a TV contract with the History Channel because with the current proposed makeup that is exactly what the conference is…

Would love it if Oregon could find a way to schedule another home-and-home series with Tennessee, especially with a certain high school QB we are a finalist for! Oregon would have to get out of or move the Oklahoma State (2026) and Baylor (2027) games.

Thanks for sharing. Love the out throw before the receiver breaks! Dante has always thrown a beautiful ball. The test will be his command of the offense and decision making.

I always look at the average star ratings since the ratings rewards class size. Oregon is still #1 in average star rating (4.11) with a bunch of teams tied for second (4.0). Quality over quantity.

No mention that Oregon is in the final 2 for the #1 high school QB recruit in the 2026 class? Shocking! Oregon Makes Final Two for Nation's No. 1 Ranked Quarterback - On3 WWW.ON3.COM Oregon has set themselves up nicely to compete for the commitment of five-star...

Georgia did have a brutal schedule last season. Makes it all the more impressive that they won the conference.

I’m not sure he would qualify (and it’s prior to 2010) but Patrick Chung was a 2-star recruit coming out of high school and the 979th ranked player nationally, according to 247. IIRC, Coach Bellotti said that he arrived as a 16 year old and, after a redshirt season, started 4 years for the Ducks (a DB record 51 straight games) and then became the starting safety for the NE Patriots, winning 3 Super Bowls, and being named to the NE Patriots’ All Dynasty Team in 2010. One of the most “under the radar” recruits in Oregon’s history. Who else would you put on the list? https://247sports.com/PlayerSport/patrick-chung-at-rancho-cucamonga-86110/RecruitRankHistory/?history=composite

To be clear, I was not just talking about post season: • Late night games (Pac-10 After Dark) • Thursday games, then Friday games • Conference championship games • Conference realignment • … The B1G / SEC scheduling alliance and guaranteed automatic qualifiers are nothing more than a money grab by those two conferences. Seed the top x number of teams accordingly, based on merit (which should include a strength of schedule component), and let them play. For example, this past year the SEC was not worthy of having more than 2-3 playoff participants. Would the playoff had been better if Alabama or Ole Miss got in over ASU or SMU?

Every time college football chases more money, it backfires and we (fans) are worse off.

On paper, he seems like a great pickup. He also has NFL experience.

This would be a huge pickup, IMHO. While talented, no one on the roster has proven that they can be a #1 WR. Evan Stewart has shown flashes but is still inconsistent and disappears in some games. We have some really talented players coming in but I would not hold my breath, given the hit-and-miss nature of the position in both college and the NFL.
