November 12, 20231 yr Williams sacked twice in the first 9 minutes. USC gives up an average of 2.5 sacks per game. He will enjoy many more than that tonight.
November 12, 20231 yr So far USCs defense has opted to sell out to stop the run.... On the bright side they can say they haven't allowed Oregon any first downs..
November 12, 20231 yr Outcome of the game isn't in doubt imo. Real question is does USC get one stop the whole game? Over/Under on 3 stops?
November 12, 20231 yr Moderator Ugh, Lewis continues his kicking issues. Why gift USC a spot on the 45 like that?
November 12, 20231 yr Why in the world woud Lanning opt for a squib kick and not just kick it out of the back of the end zone? Edited November 12, 20231 yr by Desert Duck
November 12, 20231 yr That first quarter went fast!! Almost as fast as Franklin and Johnson running through the USC defense.
November 12, 20231 yr Miami assistant coaches: "Hey Mario, get over here and watch this Oregon team...they THROW the ball!! Why didn't we think of that?"
November 12, 20231 yr One of the announcers said that Royce Freeman played on the team at the same time as LaMichael James, that because LaMichael was so good UO put Royce at WR, and then capped his erroneous sentence off by calling Mariota “Marioti.” Ugh.
November 12, 20231 yr Non football related, but virtually every team wore camo and/or shoulder flags today. I see nothing on usc sideline.
November 12, 20231 yr I wonder if Fox has a Spanish broadcast...I think I'd rather listen to that then these guys...Spencer Tillman is ok, but I can do without the main guy
November 12, 20231 yr That play that laid Bo out had to be designed for a receiving TD for Bo for better Heisman odds. I don't think that risk was worth the potential style reward.
November 12, 20231 yr Bo - 5/7. 184 yards. 3 TDs. With 11 minutes left... in the 2ND QUARTER. Ummm... okay. Sure. Why not.
November 12, 20231 yr If we are doing any stat comparison of the Heisman favorites, BO-DACIOUS already has more TDs than Michael Penix had today.

November 12, 20231 yr On 11/11/2023 at 10:44 PM, kirklandduck said: I’m not liking all these 2 pt attempts. Just take the PAT! Reminds me of the Nebraska game with Helfridge. That is not a comparison, just reminding me of that.
November 12, 20231 yr On 11/11/2023 at 11:43 PM, kirklandduck said: I don’t see what penalty TFerg did? Yeah, I wasn’t aware that spinning the ball was a penalty
November 12, 20231 yr They said that one key to the game was keeping Oregon's offense off the field. Not sure that that's the way they meant...
November 12, 20231 yr Moderator Forcing Caleb into all these heroics bodes well for the defense. USC is putting in 10x the effort trying to score than Oregon.
November 12, 20231 yr Love the shot of the USC sideline players throwing up their hands when Franklin caught that ball... USC players don't even know what's going on!!
November 12, 20231 yr That holding penalty hurt, in mor ways then one, Bucky took a really tough hit for nothing.
November 12, 20231 yr Lots of mistakes but we have the lead. Lots of yards being lost to penalties. We’ve seen this before.
November 12, 20231 yr On 11/11/2023 at 10:06 PM, kirklandduck said: Nice kick Camden He got back the two failed 2 point conversation attempts.
November 12, 20231 yr Caleb Williams may start getting worse out there due to exhaustion. He has been running his butt off and no one can keep that up under this pressure.
November 12, 20231 yr I gotta say, I am not at all worried that the Ducks have only scored 22 points in the first half. I am crazy impressed that Oregon has held USC to 7. What a defense!
November 12, 20231 yr OK. We got those points back + 1 more and ran some clock. Lets close out the half by stopping USC again. Or not. Edited November 12, 20231 yr by SeattleDuck92
