GameDay was at the Kansas vs TCU game, that game was on Fox. Maybe, Big Noon Kick off for Fox will show up for our game against Utah.

Context matters. #1 was a personal attack. #2 was referring to play. #3 was referring to decision making, play. That is my opinion, but obviously it isn't the same as everybody else. All 3 could have been worded differently with clearer meaning. It isn't an easy task to find the line. Everybody grew up in their own unique environment. My son and his friends trash talk to each other all the time and don't think anything of it. My daughter and her friends the complete opposite. The only fix, is what you have been doing. Send an E-mail and let them know a better worded statement should be used next time. That is a lot of added work to put on your plate Charles. I hope you copy and paste a generic E-mail, so you don't personalize it each time.

Statistically speaking: Oregon Ducks 1 of 2 teams to lead their conference in rushing offense, defense WWW.OREGONLIVE.COM Oregon and Alabama are the only teams in the country to lead their conferences in both aspects of the run game.

Ducks are now favored against everybody in the regular season. ESPN FPI: Ducks hold sizable win probability over UCLA, also favored to beat Utah SPORTS.YAHOO.COM Bigger than sizable win probabilities over UCLA and Utah, the Ducks got a big boost in percent-chance that they make the College Football Playoff.

They haven't announced it yet, but ESPN College Gameday is likely to be in Eugene. The Pac 12 hasn't had a team in yet this year. They aren't going to have Alabama 2 games in a row. The Big 12 just had it in Kansas. The only ACC game with 2 ranked teams is Clemson vs Syracuse, but Clemson already hosted Gameday. B1G TEN has no good games that week.

Dante currently lives in Mississippi. Not surprising he is visiting a Mississippi school. The city he lives in is along the Mississippi/Louisiana border, so I wouldn't be surprised if he visited LSU and Tulane. Most of these kids will only have this one time in their life to be wined and dined. It sucks for us to wonder, but if either of my kids are able to be wined and dined by multiple universities, I say go for it.

As mentioned by one person previously, Ty Thompson is not put in a position to thrive. I believe he threw the ball past the line of scrimmage once on the offside play? He hasn't looked great, but he is playing with the 2nd or 3rd string. If Nix comes back, he is gone I think. If Nix leaves he might come back to compete against Moore.

Arizona is nowhere near the worst team in football, at least this season. That title belongs to Colorado.

Dan Lanning, Oregon expecting test from Arizona and the best wideout group they’ve seen yet SATURDAYOUTWEST.COM Arizona has the best wideout talent Oregon's Dan Lanning has seen thus far. Saturday's game between the Ducks and Wildcats has explosive potential.

For the optics of the Pac-12, we don't want WSU to beat USC. We don't want the Pac-12 to cannibalize themselves. Makes the Pac-12 look weaker than it is. I dislike USC as much as everybody else, but we need them to only lose to Utah and maybe UCLA, if UCLA beats Utah. UW can't lose to anybody else except the Ducks and maybe WSU.

Breakout Oregon defender cracks top-10 in latest 2023 NFL mock draft | Ducks Wire DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM After 5 games, one of Oregon’s breakout defenders is being projected as a top-10 pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.

It is funny to me the B1G TEN picks and chooses when TV market and TV numbers matter. The Ducks and Huskies have better actual TV numbers than half of the B1G TEN, but the numbers don't add up. UW, Cal and Stanford have a TV market bigger than half of the B1G TEN, but the numbers don't add up. Some articles have said UCLA/USC sports will be paying 10-20 mil more in travel expenses after joining the B1G TEN. If they make 40 mil more per year, that extra 20 mil is worth it. If 4 more Pac 12 teams are added, I suppose the extra cost goes down by half? Not to mention, the number of sports USC/UCLA play and the B1G TEN don't or the other way around. Adding teams to the CFP doesn't close the financial gap between conferences. If it is like the NCAA basketball tournament, it will actually widen the gap for the B1G TEN and SEC. Extra teams mean extra money for those conferences.

Can't have it a one way street. So, if a coach sits a player, but the player wants to play, should the player get double his scholarship? More NIL money? There are a million different reasons for everybody making their own decisions. It definitely sucks and can cause issues within the team, but the coaches need to focus on the players that want to play. If a kid decides to sit out the season, as a coach, I see no reason for him to be at practice. Deciding not to play has consequences. Not practicing with the team will hurt the players development.

Oregon football: Newest AP Poll has Ducks creeping toward top 10 AUTZENZOO.COM Following an impressive win over Stanford over the weekend, Oregon football moved up one spot to12th in the AP poll this week. It took five weeks for the D...

I noticed the players not singing along to shout, but the crowd was just as rowdy as ever. I think he could probably allow the 4th and 5th string guys sing along. Half the team was with Lanning and the other half was away from him. The guys away could sing and dance.

The Pac 12 really needs to have a pecking order. We can't have UCLA beat UW then lose to Cal. As much as I would prefer OSU to beat Utah this weekend, with OSU already having a loss, the Pac 12 looks better if Utah wins.

Ducks take over the #1 spot in the Pac 12 from USC. 12. Oregon Ducks ESPN 300 commits: 10 | Previous ranking: 13 Pac-12 rank: 1 of 12 Top offensive commit: QB Dante Moore (No. 3) Top defensive commit: DT A'Mauri Washington (No. 85) New head coach Dan Lanning led Georgia's championship defense last year but now focuses on trying to build a similar unit with the Ducks. He is assembling a talented group for the secondary led by Caleb Presley, a rangy corner who can be a playmaker in coverage and doesn't hesitate to support the run. CB Cole Martin was another good pickup, as he possesses good feet and upside, and CB Kodi Decambra loves to compete and should quickly contribute to the special teams unit. They also landed a nice addition in top-10 DT Washington, a big, powerful and explosive lineman out of Arizona. Despite his strong defensive background, Lanning's first full class at Oregon is defined by promising offensive talent. A huge win was QB Moore, as the five-star recruit has a quick release and good feet and displays good accuracy. The Ducks also have landed some big targets for their passing attack in the 6-foot-3 Ashton Cozart, who is long and fast and posted a laser-timed 4.45 40 at the Dallas Under Armour camp, and Jurrion Dickey, who had an MVP performance at the UC Report Elite camp in Oakland, California, this spring. 13. USC Trojans ESPN 300 commits: 4 | Previous ranking: 12 Pac-12 rank: 2 of 12 Top offensive commit: QB Malachi Nelson (No. 1) Top defensive commit: LB Tackett Curtis (No. 75) Lincoln Riley is adding players who could create an explosive offensive unit for the Trojans. Two key in-state pickups who were planning to join Riley at Oklahoma flipped to their hometown school when Riley made the change. Nelson, the top-rated prospect in the nation, is a passer with a smooth release and the ability to make tough throws on the move. WR Makai Lemon, his high school teammate, has good hands and quickness. WR Zachariah Branch, out of Las Vegas, is one the fastest players in this class and can be an electrifying playmaker with the ball in his hands. The Trojans also added some defensive talent, led by Curtis, a tough and physical player with good range. Strengthening play in the trenches is key, and the Trojans added two D-line commitments, led by Samuel Greene, an explosive DT with active hands out of powerhouse program St. Frances in Maryland.

3 keys to victory for No. 15 Oregon Ducks against Stanford DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM The Oregon Ducks are 3-1 heading into a potential trap game at home against the Stanford Cardinal. Here are three keys to victory.

WSU did get their normal 4 downs. 1st Down: Intentional grounding. 2nd Down: Rush for 1 yard gain. 3rd Down: Rush for 6 yard gain. 4th Down: Punt Would WSU have ran it on 2nd down if they would have known it was 2nd down, likely not. However, it was an actual offensive play, so it had to count as a play. That is why they gave the ball back and made it 3rd down.

Nolan needs to stop throwing INTs.

Sacks only happen on pass plays. The sneak was never a pass play. However, I was also curious to see if they counted that as a Sack or not. WSU had plenty tackle for losses on us.

Mario destroys QBs. He won't last his contract. I'd like to know the buyout amount. Mario is a great human, great talker, great recruiter, but not a great HC. If he let his OC actually be the OC, it would work for him.

I thought the Fox crew did a good job explaining what happened. They didn't go to 2nd down, because they did run the ball. Would they have ran it on 2nd down if they knew it was 2nd down. Probably not, but it was an actual offensive play and not a punt.

With USC and OSU both 3-0, it doesn't really matter who wins as long as the Pac 12 HAS to HAVE a pecking order. If OSU wins, then we need them to win the rest of their games and then lose to us. If USC wins, they can only lose to Utah. Obviously, my preference would be for the Ducks to win out and represent the Pac 12 in the CFP, but if that doesn't happen, OSU, WSU, Utah or UW would work. USC/UCLA doesn't increase confidence in the PAC12 as they are out the door.
