January 1, 20241 yr I agree that Nix's actions were heroic, but the question is, why were they needed?
January 1, 20241 yr Defense looks like they may be settling down and figuring out their assignments to this triple option.

January 1, 20241 yr Tez isn't used to running this much... Points off the t-o are nice! Edited January 1, 20241 yr by woundedknees

January 1, 20241 yr Charles, your pre-game article was unfortunately telling, but we've got it going now. DL will HAVE to figure out the slow starts to win big boy games next year. 3 drops won't help Nix get the % record, but it's not over. He got the Mariota record already
January 1, 20241 yr What do you guys think: Does DL let Bo finish off this game or does he put Novosad out there? I believe he lets Bo make the call and finish his college career the way Bo wants.

January 1, 20241 yr We’ve gotten a couple calls go our way, which by the way is not the norm. Our D line, for the second game in a row, isn’t getting the penetration without linebacker help. That needs to change before next season in my opinion.
January 1, 20241 yr Oregon definitely showed up in the second quarter. I think we could have beaten Liberty comfortably without throwing a single pass. They cannot stop Oregon’s running game. I hope that Bo sits the second half.
January 1, 20241 yr Moderator We gotta keep Bo in until he gets his completion percentage back up to #1 all time

January 1, 20241 yr Moderator I remember letting Lockie play the 2nd half of a bowl game with a larger lead.

One thing that @Mike West pointed out earlier was the linebackers' eye discipline, which (I think) RGIII mentioned during the 2nd quarter in passing.
January 1, 20241 yr I didnt know T Ferg was going to play, Go Ducks!! Bo and Tez Awesome Ducks forever!!!
January 1, 20241 yr Have to say a word about Tahj Boyd. He went to Oscar Smith High in Chesapeake, VA, where I went. It was not only tough on Liberty when he died in the off season, but for many Oscar smith players and fans too. By all account he was a really good kid and missed greatly. That's said, Go Ducks!
January 1, 20241 yr Name the Oregon coaches who would have kept the pedal on the floor as the half wound down? Kelly, probably. Any others in Ducks history? (history: Ducks led TCU 31-0 at the half, so - keep playing)

January 1, 20241 yr Moderator I'm glad the offense knocked off that rust and finished the 1st half strong. Receivers were uncharacteristically dropping passes here and there but that seems to have gone away. The slow offensive start for the 1st quarter is concerning however, they can get away with that against Liberty and the lower half of the B10 but that won't fly against tOSU or Michigan next season. Hopefully Will Stein figures that part out early next season. Defense seemed to make adjustments more quickly and played angrier after that Liberty TD, I actually liked Bassa getting in the face of the Liberty running back after tearing his helmet off. I want them eating nails and breathing fire the rest of the way!

He had his whole life ahead of him. Always sad when someone decides to end it, especially for those closest to him.

I don't think they were dropping passes all season quite as much as the first quarter and a half but then again my memory isn't what it used to be.

January 1, 20241 yr Liberty had a nice season but they have no business being in a New Year’s bowl game. Not a single victory against a top 25 team.
