    With that offense?  Not much downside!

    Come to think of it, I never thought we would find another offense as "Stone Age" as Mario's - but lo and behold, I think we found one that's probably even worse lol

    That said, if TT does end up in Iowa, totally rooting for the kid to lift Iowa's O out of the Stone Age - except when playing against OBD of course

    I am would throw Justin Herbert into that mix also.  Between Mariota and Herbert, we had Vernon Adams who was developed elsewhere and the Dakota Prukop experiment that paved the way for Herbert.

     

    Herbert started as QB2 behind Prukop but then was thrown into it as a freshman.

    Oh yes - thanks for correcting my post! How could I have forgotten about Herbert lol!

  3. I just hope that the Ducks' ability to recruit QB's is not damaged down the road.

     

    Just concerned that in the future, good QB's coming out of high school may have second thoughts about coming to Oregon as they will probably think they'll just be riding the bench anyways in favor of someone coming in through the TP and thus will hardly get a chance to start, if ever.

     

    It's a Catch-22 situation, balancing decisions between the "win now" mantra vs possibly going through some seasons with maybe 3-4 losses while the QB develops. Probably the last QB we had that was developed by Oregon was Marcus Mariota.

  4. It is what it is. At least OBD get a chance to play in a New Year's Day bowl game. Although Liberty is probably not a "sexy" enough opponent for most of us, you know that they are really hyped up for this game and will play lights out against us.

     

    Just want OBD to play lights out as well, hopefully close out this season on a great note with a victory and look forward to creating havoc in the B1G next season. Go Ducks!

    These big game losses hurt. 0-3 to uw. We wasted the entire 1st quarter, managed to win the middle 8, then collapsed. Burch going out on the first series was a killer for our D. But, we got out coached all the way around. Why did we onside kick with 2:14 and all 3 timeouts? Why?

    Im heart broken.

    I know a loss is a loss, but it's not like we were blown out by UW in any of our previous games under DL.

     

    I was thinking the same thing about the onside kick. However, even if the ball was kicked deep, the way UW's passing game was going, and our D seemingly having no answer for it, that would have just delayed the inevitable unfortunately IMHO. Plus UW's offense is that good that they can score a TD literally in just one play.
