Charles Fischer Administrator No. 2 Share Posted September 15 Jordan! This is a fun read, and my apologies for it not getting published until 9:00 AM. You completed and scheduled it for much earlier, but we had a tech glitch this morning that we just got solved. Not only is it great perspective you offer, but the pictures with all the vivid color in the background are epic. Orange is such a benign color to me now... 1 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyToBeADuck No. 3 Share Posted September 15 Jordan, yesterday's game was just an absolute fun ride for this fan. The team put alot of pieces together and simply let the rodents know who big brother is. They played 4 quarters and dominated. For this fan the frustration and angst of the first 6 quarters of the 2024 season has been double flushed by the last 6 quarters of play. The play has been exceptional. OBD''s came out of the halftime of the BSU game with an entirely different mindset. They haven't looked back! Were there some hiccups, mistakes and lapses? Yes...... That's going to happen in any game going forward. The penalties and fumbles that allowed BSU to take back control of the game in the 2nd half were not present against OSU. (Based on the game thread comments in the BSU game, there were some epic living room meltdowns on the Forum. It's what makes football such a great game) Though some of that meltdown was present on the game thread when the defense couldnt get some big stops in the first half in Corvallis. Hey OBDF members, isn't it great that we have a safe haven to melt down on. Thank you Charles and moderators...... But remember, the defense got the ball back for the offense. The offense drove the field, bled the clock to .02 and kicked that fieldgoal for the win........ What more could we want from our team? How about a complete destruction of the rodents on their home field on National TV.... Yes.... The Ducks delivered with a statement game.....now Plenty of things to work on in the next 3 weeks in preparation for tOSU game. Play it one game at a time and improve that 1% each practice session. With that improvement DG can and will give the Buckeyes all they can handle. GO DUCKS....... 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprising Oregon position group shows dominant upside that could propel Ducks back into elite status WWW.YARDBARKER.COM The Oregon Ducks were largely without their vocal leader on defense, linebacker Jeffrey Bassa, who played minimal snaps.

Jon Joseph Moderator No. 5 Share Posted September 15 Can't Get Enough of The OBD Love. Oregon Ducks emphatically slam the door closed on discussions over previous issue with dominant performance WWW.YARDBARKER.COM The Oregon Ducks finally looked like a team worthy of being considered one of the best teams in the country. Their 49-14 win on the road against Oregon State in their rivalry game was lopsided... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drake Moderator No. 6 Share Posted September 15 Nice recap. Simple game plan, force a running team to pass. The OL gave DG the opportunity to shine, and the offense gave us a reason to believe that we still are a very good team. The talent gap was obvious, and the Ducks dominated as one would expect from this level of talent. It was interesting that there were actually predictions of a loss. Winning doesn’t always come easy, Georgia squeaks by Kentucky, and Notre Dame….well, they always seem to do less with more. The schedule ahead gets harder, but with a team that plays well together, anything is still possible. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Administrator No. 7 Share Posted September 15 Yes, we have some B1G teams looking better than expected, and on our schedule such as Michigan State(3-0) and in particular Illinois (3-0) is looking impressive. It is kind of exciting, a new conference, and new teams to learn about in anticipation of playing OBD. 1 2 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 8 Share Posted September 15 I think the best thing about this W was that it wasn’t a bunch of guys complaining my back from injury riding to the rescue. it was basically the same guys that were having problems in the first two games figuring it out n the third. Can’t stress enough how important that is. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akubra91 No. 9 Share Posted September 15 Yes, it was a pleasure to see the convincing win over the Beavers. However, I'm still concerned about the defense against the run. I didn't like how well the Beavers ran the ball in the first half. Great job by the offensive line, finally. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Duck No. 10 Share Posted September 15 Bryce Boettcher has arrived in a massive, and timely, manner. This rockstar, 2 sport, former Oregon football walk-on, phenomenal athlete, is a beast stud. If he keeps this up, he's going to have a tough decision to make: MLB or NFL. Or maybe he goes Bo Jackson, and does both. Not to mention, the kid is a South Eugene grad!

Unlike SEC vs. SEC matchups, the loser of this game will fall more than 1 or 2 spots in the next AP Poll. No. 6 Tennessee plays at No. 15 Oklahoma next Saturday so we will have a comparison. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PittDuck No. 12 Share Posted September 15 I feel the need to apologize to all my Duck buddies here on the OBD Forum with Decorum: I have neglected to put my Ducks ’O’ Flag in my pickup for the first two games this season. I dug it out of my Duck swag box and flew it proudly this week. The results are obvious! Again, my profound apologies for this oversight, and I promise not to take it down until we own the 2023 Natty! Go Ducks! 1 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
