Duckley Palace No. 51 Share Posted September 1 Oregon has two hundred more yards, three times the amount of first downs. But you can't let underdogs stay around. Silly things happen when the favorite starts pressing. Idaho can't move on this defense, their defense is going to start breaking down as well. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Joseph Moderator No. 52 Share Posted September 1 These boys aren't spuds duds. Boise's stud RB ran for 267 yards today. Hopefully, the Ducks come away with the win and have their game face on next week. Any unit have a better than C grade? This is why you want to open against an FCS opponent.

David Marsh No. 58 Share Posted September 1 Offensive line is holding this entire team back right now. The run game is getting clogged up at the line of scrimmage by an offensive line that isn't pushing. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Duck No. 63 Share Posted September 1 Sadly, if we don't punch it in on this third down play, I think we need to take the three points. Right now, I'm just looking to protect the W and live to fight another day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoduck No. 64 Share Posted September 1 Color me unimpressed. A rushing game like this won’t hold up in the BIG. The players must have bought into all those hype videos a little too much. Let’s hope Lanning is playing 4D chess and this is all some sort of facade to make the future opponents underestimate the ducks, if not it’s gonna be a long season. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haywarduck No. 75 Share Posted September 1 When talent realizes effort beats talent all day, talent begins to reach its potential. I think the ranking and playing a decent team is just what this Duck team needed to wake up. This is a talented team that was eating their own story before it was made. When was the last time, maybe it is the first time, Oregon was ranked #3 preseason? It takes a pretty seasoned team to not get full of itself when you have already won before you have even suited up. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceaniaDuck No. 76 Share Posted September 1 (edited) Idaho just scored a TD. Ducks will be lucky to be in the Top 20 after this game. I'm being generous, but our more accurate ranking based on this game is maybe between 21-25. Assuming we escape with a win.

Desert Duck No. 78 Share Posted September 1 This is really a bizarre game. If you take a look at the stats, we have absolutely dominated them in all key categories. But I suppose, that is why the game is actually played on the field. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
