FishDuck Article Administrator No. 1 Share Posted October 23, 2021 This is the official GameDay thread for discussing the game with UCLA before it begins, during and after the game ends. Yours-truly will have a game reaction article on Sunday, and an Opinion-Editorial article on Monday, so let’s have some fun pondering it all. I regard this game to be a tough match-up for the Ducks because of how well ...

Smith72 Moderator No. 2 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Thank you for sharing the outside zone read tutorial. So simple to block and so smart to use. The analysis was easy to follow. Teaching linemen to "take their man where he wants to go" creates those huge running lanes. I love watching the backs read the linemen's blocks and having the vision to see the hole. They were taught so well by Coach Gary Campbell. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyToBeADuck No. 3 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Charles awesome tutorial. Great way to start this football filled Saturday. Just a few thoughts: How disciplined will our young defense play today? 11 players in sync or 11 individuals trying to do too much? This roller coaster ride could be exhilarating or emotional devastation for the Duck faithful today. Can we set and hold the edges, string the plays to the sideline and allow our secondary to tackle for a loss? We have the key players to make this happen. From the tutorial it is easy to see your frustration at Cristobal for abandoning such a successful offensive scheme. A few basic plays with multiple options for success. One way to explain this is on our nuclear submarines when they launch a missile it has upto 13 warheads on board. At a certain altitude point those warheads disperse. Good luck shooting down all the options. We used to wear defenses out, at warp speed, trying to defend all the options. Short passes became touchdowns. Perfect for QB's who have trouble throwing over the top. Hammer! If CK upticks the tempo, look out! Hold the Bruins under 21 and we can win this game. Doubtful..... Let's go Ducks and may we all sit down to dinner with a Duck victory. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Joseph No. 4 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Thank you Mr. FD. This play sure seemed to work for Oklahoma in the 2nd half against Texas and vs TCU? Probably matters whether Jimmy or Joe is playing QB? Hope Forsyth being back will help both the run and pass game today? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Joseph No. 5 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Guest Picker today is not Judge Judy. It's UCLA grad Bill 'Conference of Champions' Walton. Show will definitely go over its allotted time. Impressive turn out by UCLA fans at 6 in the morning. UCLA last defeated a ranked opponent in LA 14 years ago. The opponent? The Ducks. Oh no! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Administrator No. 6 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Don't forget that this is the Game-Thread, and let's have fun with it! First...I noted that Spencer Webb has been beaten out at Tight End by true freshman Terrance Ferguson! And...as I look at the starting line-up, I say to myself..."how can we NOT do well?" Third....I have a Duck-Buddy who insists that THIS is the game that the Oregon Defense emerges in a big way. Boy would I love that! 2 1 Quote Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southwest Duck No. 11 Share Posted October 23, 2021 1st team OL has TJ Bass at left tackle, Jackson Powers-Johnson at left guard, Ryan Walk at center, Steven Jones at right guard and Malesala Aumavae-Laulu at right tackle Interesting starting offensive line according to Oregon live.

DuckIt No. 32 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Herbstreit just made my point, questioning why KT is being dropped back into coverage. This is at least the second time, DeRuyter has chosen to do that in this game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
