Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted September 8 Here we are my Duck-Buddies, the thread for pondering the actual game as it happens. Let's discuss before, and during the game! The vast majority of you are GREAT in this thread, but you must remember that this forum is different, as we require civilized discourse. Discussion of negative is fine, but don't vent on us! Rule No. 31d covers GameDay Thread Conduct, and it is not hard for the vast majority of us--just a tiny few who need to reign it in when things don't go well for Our Beloved Ducks. Let's Have Fun Posting During the Game! Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santa Rosa Duck No. 2 Share Posted September 8 I like everyone is hoping to see some significant improvement this week. Former DUCK Dante Dowdell has sure looked good in the Nebraska backfield. I want to see our running backs and hope they do well. GO DUCKS! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 4 Share Posted September 8 Dowdell wanted to play right away, and knew that with Jordan James and Noah Whittington...it would be tough. Something like 88 degrees out in Autzen even now? Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa Rosa Duck No. 6 Share Posted September 8 (edited) "Coverage will begin shortly" I wonder what this means? Surely NBC is able to broadcast two games at once I hope. Edit and they can! Edited September 8 by Santa Rosa Duck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 11 Share Posted September 8 OMIGOSH! Bedford did not start at right guard, as Poncho did with Pickard back at center. (Yikes!) However the starting right guard of Boise State went down, so they do not have their starting center AND their starting right guard. We have one less casualty... 2 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Marsh No. 13 Share Posted September 8 James has had a couple of decent runs. But still a far cry from where this team should be. Frustrating that Stewart didn't pick up the first down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaterPoloDuck No. 44 Share Posted September 8 Maybe I'm a stressed out pessimist on a roller coaster ride. If the O line can provide that sort of protection regularly then we can be on a higher level of play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
