  1. No, I did not realize that but I do remember hearing somewhere that Brock Osweiler is 6’8”… https://thesundevils.com/sports/football/roster/player/brock-osweiler
  2. Not a good sign for the Penn State game.
  3. Maybe we are thinking of a different play but I saw 0 Jordon Davison, lined up as the fullback, carry the ball in a 3rd and short for a first down. Limar has been the featured back with Whittingham out.
  4. Maybe but DM will have to prove it against better competition (e.g., Penn State, potential opponents in the B1G Conference Championship Game and playoffs/bowl game - assuming we make them). Lots of football left to play. Dream scenario - The Oregon Ducks win the 2025-26 College Football National Championship and Dante Moore goes #1 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft.
  5. These are sharp. Whomever is picking the uniforms this year has done a terrific job so far, IMO. I’m curious to see what they pick for the Penn State game. Do they go with the all whites (aka storm trooper uniforms) for the white out?
  6. I’m always cautiously optimistic when it comes to high school recruits, particularly at the skill positions. Any Oregon fan who follows recruiting and has been around for a little while, can list a number of blue chip, 5-star prospects that either didn’t pan out or took a couple of years to develop. Cameron Colvin came immediately to mind when Dakorien Moore signed with Oregon. Colvin was a Rivals 5-star receiver and a part of the heralded De La Salle recruiting class. He was the #3 wide receiver and #10 overall player in his recruiting class. By his senior year at Oregon, he became a solid player but never lived up to the high expectations (which aren’t fair to put on these young men). I’m glad that Dakorien Moore is showing what he can do early in his Oregon career. He is clearly a talented player that has been coached well and appears to have good football IQ. Oregon will really need him this year with the departure of Tez to the NFL and the unfortunate injury to Evan Stewart. It’s clear that Coach Stein plans to get the ball in his hands, a number of different ways.
  7. Through 2 games, Dante Moore has exceeded my expectations. I knew he had arm talent (that was apparent from his high school tape, particularly the HS All Star Game where he threw for 3? TDs) but I had concerns about the picks at UCLA, particularly his ability to read defenses and the vision to see defenders. Sitting last year behind DG and rebuilding his confidence made a noticeable difference in his development (credit the young man for his vision and patience). It’s clear he understands the offense and is looking to check down, instead of forcing throws. I have high hopes for Dante’s upside but we’ll have to see how he performs against elite defenses (Penn State will be a huge midterm but it’s not the final exam). Go Ducks!!!

  9. I may be in the minority, but I personally don’t want to see the Buckeyes in the playoffs again, after the past few games…
  10. Oregon Ducks 5-star TE Kendre Harrison dazzles with one-handed TD catch https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2025/08/30/oregon-ducks-kendre-harrison-one-handed-touchdown/85910558007/ Yes, please…
  11. Congratulations on the National Championship and huge win on Saturday! I can’t stand ESPN or the other cable TV sports networks, and no longer watch them except during the games. The commentators are all over the top and to get paid you need to be outrageous/controversial (see Steven A. and the dude on College GameDay). ESPN/ABC has always drooled over the SEC (it’s a large $$$ investment for them), even though the B1G has been the dominant football conference the past few years (they can’t and won’t ever admit it). I said on another thread that although the Buckeyes appear to have an awesome defense (maybe the best in college football), I was underwhelmed by Arch Manning, after all the hype (certainly not his fault, as it’s a product of his last name). You would expect an elite QB to have a few drives and make some key plays (Texas’s defense certainly played good enough to win the game or at least give them a chance). Perhaps he’ll end up as the best QB in college football but he has some work to do and there is probably a reason that he didn’t play much last season. Good luck this season. I hope that the Ducks and Bucks both go undefeated and meet up in the conference championship game.
  12. One thing that really bothered me during the Texas vs. Ohio State game is the officiating. It was an SEC crew since the game was a non-conference road game and I believe that they were favoring Texas (at least early). Anyone else think a conference officials would subconsciously favor their highly ranked team, especially the #1 team in the country given they are employed by that conference (and not college football)? Why can’t they use another conference’s officials for the big games, like they do for the bowls/playoffs? I understand letting the players play physical but there was a PI penalty not called where Jeremiah Smith was hit before the ball arrived and I believe that the CB also had a hold of his jersey. I don’t mind allowing hand checking/physical play but you cannot hit a receiver BEFORE the ball arrives and that should be allowed to be challenged. Although Ohio State has a really good defense, Arch Manning was overhyped. There is probably a reason he didn’t play much last year. I’m not saying that he can’t become an elite QB but with all the hype, I expected more.
  13. I think the opposite since both those Universities would fit in better with the B1G from an academic and athletic perspective but I guess we’ll see. If the B1G wants to continue to compete with the SEC in football and bring in huge dollars then they should look to add the ACC football powerhouses - Clemson and FSU (and perhaps Miami).
