Run The Gol' Dang Ball
Couldn’t you make the case that the UCLA situation and experience was so bad that it should count as a negative? I don’t know Dante but it appears that UCLA destroyed his confidence. Our coaches seem to have been trying to build up his confidence and his emotions poured out after the Penn State victory. Unfortunately, Dante took a step back on Saturday (he didn’t have much help from the coaching staff or players). Hope everyone can learn from this and keep getting better throughout the season.

IMHO, Davison is the best all around running back and should get the majority of carries (~20 per game). Bring in Whittington and Hill as change of pace backs but I want Davison grinding down the defense all game long.

James Franklin is Out at Penn State
That’s crazy but I guess it’s the price you pay for earning $10M+ a year. Think the new Penn State coach and his agent doesn’t negotiate a huge buyout after seeing what happened with Coach Franklin?

Hiring a hot coordinator is high-risk. How many fail for every one of those names you mentioned. Oregon struck gold with Coach Lanning.

Portal Quarterbacks: My Words Come Back to Haunt Me...
Perhaps Coach Lanning was trying to build up Dante’s confidence. You could see how much the Penn State victory meant to him - he broke down in tears after the game in Coach Stein’s arms. I think UCLA completely broke him and our coaches have been trying to build him back up.

LOL. This is so freakin’ good.

That is a take.

Post-Game Thoughts: Will Oregon Grow From This?
Only two Oregon OL were selected in the NFL draft and I believe only one came to Oregon as a high school recruit (Conerly Jr.), who was primarily recruited by Mario but Lanning closed the deal. How many of our current starting offensive lineman came to Oregon from high school (2?) vs. the transfer portal (3?)? I would prefer that Oregon recruit and developed most of its offensive lineman with the occasional transfer to plug a gap. We have done the opposite for whatever reason.

I feel bad for Allar but it might be a blessing in disguise for all parties involved.

Post-Game Thoughts: Will Oregon Grow From This?
For whatever reason, Coach Lanning and staff have not recruited well on the offensive line and have had to rely on transfers to plug holes in the roster. I’d like to hear from those in the know what has happened. Are they evaluation misses, injuries, lack of development or something else? Mario was a mediocre head coach but at least he recruited and developed elite offensive lines, and he is doing the same at Miami.

If they got pushed around by a smaller Indiana what will Ohio State, LSU, Miami, etc al do against our OL?

Coach Stein has had 2 weeks to come up with this game plan?!

Slick Rick has been complimentary of and picked Oregon in the past. Can’t remember if it was last year or this but I believe he picked Oregon to win the national championship (maybe that was his version of the jinx?).

GameDay Thread: Oregon vs. Indiana...Let's Discuss!
It appears that Oregon players let all of the compliments get in their heads after the Penn State victory. Hope they can reset and make adjustments in the second half. I’d like to see some WR/TE screens and some plays across the middle.

Indiana is winning both lines of scrimmage. Our DEs have been a non factor and Dante Moore is getting a lot of pressure.
