They just don't feel dynamic enough on offense to deal with Michigan. At the end of the day it might be nic to eliminate Penn State from CFP chaos with another loss. Michigan and Ohio State will most take care of themselves. It's the teams with one loss in the first half of the season that are the danger to sneek into the playoff. Oregon is one of these teams. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartan2785 No. 8 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Based on what I've seen Penn St. is not what you think of when you think about a 8-1 team. Probably one of the worst offenses I've ever seen for a 8-1 team. Just awful, Allar might have a been a 5 star, but he's plays like a 1 star against anyone with a pulse. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mic No. 11 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Watching the Mich - Penn St. game makes me even more thankful for coach Lanning & Stein. Penn St. has a defense that can play with anyone but their Offense really sucks. Plus, there was no adjustment away from what wasn't working. That was the most un-imaginative play calling I've seen in a long time. Yeah, Michigan has a terrific defense, but my Gosh. Penn State had no clue how to do anything but run the ball and when that didn't work - they ran the ball again. And when that didn't work - run it some more! This isn't even counting all the bad decisions Franklin made by going for two points twice when they didn't need them to stay in the game. The last one took any slim chance they had of making a comeback. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherOD No. 13 Share Posted November 11, 2023 (edited) Coach Petersen on the FOX Post game just said of the Michigan/Penn State game: "I don't get it, if this game wasn't in color tv, I would have thought it was 1950s football. It's all about winning the game and they did a great job with that with all the controversy surrounding that but I don't get it ... JJ McCarthy, is he hurt?

There is clear separation between Michigan/Ohio St. and Penn State, but neither of them looked good winning. How bad must the rest of the B1G be if no other team is able to compete with Penn State? It’s just frustrating to watch two teams coast through the conference every year without being challenged. And the other B1G teams have no incentive to change. Just show up to the games, take your 45 point beating and collect your $70 million every year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washington played out of their freaking minds against Oregon and Oregon shot themselves in the foot in so many ways that game. I think that was a massive learning game for the oregons staff. So....I don't follow the Huskies that closely but I'm sure they have some November depth issues at the moment. They have very little depth overall and it's November so most teams usually need to start digging into the depth. Not always because players are injured and out of the game entirely but because players start feeling the wear and tear of the season and just need more rest. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Joseph No. 32 Share Posted November 11, 2023 WAY TO GO, TEXAS TECH! 16-13 win at 16 Kansas moves TT to 5-5. UCF at home next Saturday should be a TT win in Lubbock and the greatest gift for Puddles would be a TT win at Texas. With CU likely not going bowling and the same for WSU, TT going bowling would help the OREGON cause. On 12/3, OREGON needs wins against teams with a winning record. The B1G? Michigan and Ohio State.

Desert Duck Author No. 40 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Mario starts the 2nd half with two running plays that go nowhere. So, with 13 minutes left in the left in the 3rd Q, what does Mario call next? A time out... of course. Followed by another run that goes nowhere. Their kicker did, however, drill a 50+ yard FG to lead 13-10. But, as we all know, Mario will blow it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Marsh No. 41 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Oh that cristobal offense... I certainly don't miss it. The runner goes straight ahead into a pile of linemen, both offensive and defensive, when there is an open lane if the back were to just cut and take it.

(More academic prowess X2) A Utah player falls on the ball at the 1 yard line. (WOW) Then KW runs a deep handoff 5 yards deep in his endzone on an obvious running play. With 8 defenders in the box.
