  1. The off the field distractions should not be taking away from the product between the lines...I get it, the portal is here to stay, but the timing is horrible.

     

    It shouldn't even be an option until after the conclusion of the championship game. Can NFL team ink free agents prior to the conclusion of the Super Bowl? Where the leadership?

     

    Its the responsibility of the governing body...Can anyone tell me what the NCAA does anymore, other than run to the bank to cash in on  March Madness.

  2. I know a lot of us just saw Utah, a team Oregon beat a few weeks earlier, physically beat down USC. I have seen several social media post actually suggesting that it should’ve been Oregon trampling the Trojans tonight.


    But realistically, if Oregon was on that field against the Trojans tonight, Williams would have embarrassed them like he did Norte Dame the last week. 
     

    Utah won not because of their offense, but because of their defense. Check out the the 3rd down conversion rate for the Trojans offense: 1/12. No way Oregons defense keeps USC offense off the field like Utah did tonight. 
     

    Congrats to Utes!

  3. I share similar sentiment in hiring a coordinator whose talents have not been fully been recognized.

     

    However, as we have seen with Dillingham, those individuals will have short tenures at Oregon and consequently the continuity of the program will suffer. Furthermore, frequent vacancies leaves Lanning with the task of finding a home run hire every time a coordinator seeks greener pastures.


    Consequently, I am hopeful Lanning finds a productive re-tread that will be a constant presence on the side lines for years to come. Honestly, I am hoping he gives Mark Helfrich a call, but I don’t foresee  the donors buying that choice. If not Heldich, what about Troy Taylor (Sac St.)? 

     

     

     

  4. After seeing the Huskies throw the ball all over the field against our secondary, and the Beavs pound the rock down our throats (after being up by 21), I am not sure I want to see Oregon back their way into the championship game against USC. I don't know how, but USC managed to put a better defense out on the field this year that us, and K. Williams will have a field day against our defense.

     

    We only have to watch that defense once a week, but Lanning has to view it every day of the week. Perhaps, that why he goes for it so frequently on fourth downs. He probable has more confidence in Nix and the offense, than he does in his defense at his point. I am pretty even keeled, however I might just lose it if we were to lose to the Huskies, Beavs, and the Trojans all in the same year.

  5. USC just punched it in...now down by 7. It's tough to root for the Trojans, but my 'head' says that Oregon doesn't beat Chip a second time in the championship game, IF Oregon can get past Utah and Oregon St. (the Beavs playing good ball y'all).
