OregonDucks

As Joey Harrington says: “It doesn’t matter.” We have over a month of football remaining and conference championships. With the expanded college football playoffs, we’ll get to settle it on the gridiron. Does Oregon deserve to be #1? Yes, we are undefeated with two wins over top 20 teams, including the former #2 (and still top 5) team. Are we the best team in the country? No one knows but hopefully we’ll have a chance to find out. I do believe that Oregon can beat any team in the county if they play their A game. Hopefully Oregon can stay healthy and continue to improve (become more consistent).

Mariota finished 18-23 (78.3%) for 205 yards (8.9 yards per completion) with 2 TD and 0 interceptions. The Commanders won 40-7. This is what a lot of Duck fans were hoping to see and I hope that MM makes the most of the opportunity and gets another shot somewhere.

Or a Trojan Duck?!

LOL. Coach Day would be fired immediately after the game, before he can address the team, and escorted out of the stadium by security!

"3. The tied teams will be compared based on record against common opponents with the best conference record and proceeding through the common conference opponents based on their order of finish within the conference standings." Guess that Oregon will have to continue to win and hope that Ohio State does the same!

After they and most national pundits picked Ohio State the weekend before. I might have to join Charles and place a bet for the opposite team, the next time I see them all pick one team in their final selection...

LOL. Coach Lanning has too much respect and admiration for Coach Smart for that to happen.

Wilcox is a good DC but a mediocre head coach. Those people that wanted Oregon to hire him as the head coach wouldn't have even mentioned his name as a potential candidate, if he weren't a former Duck player.

He is a young coach and was frustrated after the game. I'm sure that he'll learn from it. That said, I would be pissed if I were the player's parents.

And to think that some Duck fans, alums and former players wanted him in Eugene instead of Lanning...

Kenny Dillingham apologizes for comments about kicking game ARIZONASPORTS.COM Arizona State coach Kenny Dillingham apologized for his postgame comments on the kicking game after Saturday's 24-14 loss at Cincinnati. KD is a class act. I'm cheering for him in the Big-12.

ON3: NEW College Football Playoff Rankings | Oregon #1? | Georgia SURGING | Where Is Texas, Miami? Has Penn State #5, Texas #4, Georgia #3, Ohio State #2 and Oregon #1 in "college football playoff rankings"

LOL. And ran off the final 10 seconds...

Surprised that Coach Lanning didn't rank the Ducks lower to bring down the average. LOL. Perhaps he is one of the two coaches that voted Georgia #1 (maybe Sark is the other)? Someone should ask him to share his rankings this week during one of his press conferences or media interviews.

As long as they don't pronounce it "Or-E-gone"!

More Trojan tears....

Or they could take a road trip to Mount Hood or Mount Bachelor and get some high altitude conditioning in at the same time...

I'm interested to see how Oregon's offense performs in November at Michigan and at Wisconsin, especially if there is snow. We do not have the running game we are accustomed to and we might need to establish that in bad weather games, later in the season.

After ASU's kicker missed two ugly field goals this weekend, KD said their kicking game is atrocious and they would have open tryouts on Monday. If you know anyone, pass on the word. Maybe the two fans who made the field goal kicks at Cal and Oregon on ESPN College Football Gameday, will transfer to ASU... Kenny Dillingham: Arizona State to hold open kicking tryouts after missed field goals WWW.USATODAY.COM Arizona State football coach Kenny Dillingham said the Sun Devils will hold open kicking tryouts on Monday after ASU's loss Saturday to Cincinnati.

Michigan's QB had a rating of 22 with an average of 6.5 yards per completion and Illinois's QB had a rating of 68.1 with an average completion of 4.4 yards. Neither team had a 100 yard rusher. Why wouldn't you want to watch that throwback 21-7 football game?!!!

Congratulations. Georgia looked really good, yesterday, particularly the defense. I wouldn’t want to play them right now. I still don’t understand how you lost to Alabama.

By all accounts, Texas would have joined the PAC-12, if we let them keep their network. Now that we’re halfway through the season, is the B1G that much better than the PAC-12? I’ve enjoyed the mid-season big time matchups with the super conferences but there are still some really bad football teams in the B1G and SEC. Why do those programs continually to get a pass? The PAC-12 also had some really exciting offenses, and QBs, and I do miss the regional aspect and traditional rivalries. It’s too bad that college football couldn’t find a way to keep regional conferences while also ensuring exciting big time games throughout the season.

Georgia could jump Ohio State and possibly Penn State. Don't think they'll jump an undefeated Oregon with a win over #2 but I wouldn't want to play them right now...

Oregon will definitely be the hunted now. It'll make some program's year to knock off the #1 team. Better bring it every week because we'll get everyone's best from here on out.
