Posted October 13, 2024Oct 13 Administrator I've never seen so many on the forum predict against Our Beloved Ducks! That and nearly ALL the media...even Herbie! Let's continue the after-game discussion! Mr. FishDuck
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Well let me be the first to say that I am so so happy to be wrong. Let's go Ducks!!!!
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Yep I didn't think we could win tbh. Amazing game. I was okay with losing a close one, but this win should get us into the playoffs one way or another. Everything about this game was unexpected. Offensive pass interference on #4 was the last thing I was expecting. He was rag dolling our dbs all night, but they finally called one at the most inopportune time. Howard threw better than Gabriel. Not what I expected. So many not what I expected things. What a game.

October 13, 2024Oct 13 And to be honest most of us, because many of us doubted… Amazing game. Lanning outcoached Day.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 I am Charlie Brown and I just kicked the damn ball out of the stadium!!! SCREW YOU LUCY!!!
October 13, 2024Oct 13 The BIG teams were 1-8 on the road with 2 time zones of travel. I would say the crowd was worth at least one point tonight. Great game, but the crowd was the difference. Mr. Harmon was my favorite player of the game. Boy did he play with passion, intelligence and execute, stepped up big time!
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Apparently the secret sauce to beating the buckeyes is having our best defensive player out.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 I'll say it, we own the buckeyes, away and at home. That has to start getting in their heads. Also CK still hasn't gotten a win against the Ducks, love it.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Moderator I figure No.1 Texas No.2 Oregon No.3. Penn State No.4 Ohio State No.5 Georgia
October 13, 2024Oct 13 You see it's reverse psychology, you predict the loss then reap the rewards!!!! Honestly I just felt like Ohio St. was going to have too many weapons, we didn't have our best pass rusher, I wasn't sure if we could run the ball, it just felt like a game we play tough, but come up a little short as we got worn down. So proud of these guys
October 13, 2024Oct 13 OMG check out the box score. The stats are the most even I've ever seen in a game. A tip of the cap to Ohio State for the uphill battle against the environment, the travel and the game time, that they came to play right out of the gate. BTW did DL grow or what? He trusted his D and kicked a field goal from one yard out.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Moderator This is my 2nd time picking against the Ducks at home. I’m happy to be wrong, but I am also trying to win a contest. I’m glad all of the Buckeye fans at Autzen didn’t get their money’s worth.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Ohio State fan photo...ya shoulda called Lloyd Carr for advice... Oregon Ducks, Ohio State: Deafening Autzen Stadium Breaks Attendance Record WWW.SI.COM EUGENE - The No. 3 Oregon Ducks vs. Ohio State Buckeyes matchup broke the Autzen Stadium record for attendance. Autzen Stadium was deafening with 60,129 fans in
October 13, 2024Oct 13 "I think the effect of the crowd noise was underestimated." - Ohio State fan (after the loss at Autzen)
October 13, 2024Oct 13 I’m glad I was wrong. What a game! Both teams looked good. The ducks even had to overcome their own mistakes to win. Lanning learned from the close games with UW last year and made some better decisions.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Moderator NEVER A DOUBT! Even though an OBD interception on the Buckeyes 1st drive turned into a tOSU TD. Tremendous football game. After Puddles shot Soylent Green on a Talking Head head before Kaitlin Olsen copped to losing her virginity on campus. 'THIS' usually happens not before CFB kickoffs. 👍👍👍😍😍😍😍 Any OBD Bros and Sisters who want to cop to Kaitlin's reveal? No matter, OBD scored and won the Day, the Chipper, and The Game. Purdue, who knew, took the Illini into OT. Blow Up The Boilers! Do not let Friday in Indy be Fry Day.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Moderator You see it's reverse psychology, you predict the loss then reap the rewards!!!! Exactly my theory, too. I majored in reverse psychology.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Open letter to USC fans: Dan Lanning is a better coach than Lincoln Riley. Change our mind. Lots of love, Duck Fans

What a game I thought Howard was more consistent than Gabriel. Dillon threw some absolutely beautiful passes tonight. If DG had just three more accurate throws and one proper read, we're talking another ten points on the board. DG faced more pressure over the duration of the game in my "super hack" opinion. Ohio State fans are going to blame Howard tonight. They couldn't be more (absolutely) wrong. Oklahoma and KSU sure made major mistakes going with potential instead of proven experience. Both teams would be undefeated this very moment, and KSU would be ahead by 14 as I write.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 I dared to hope... But I didn't believe until the very end. And then my toddler and I turned on Shout and had a good living room dance.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Moderator Yes, some cognitive awareness from Washington: Honestly. We probably won’t hear much. They really don’t give a (blank) about us, which is fine. We pose zero threat to them.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 I can't wait to see what this does for Oregon recruiting. It was reported that Oregon had the most blue chip prospects ever visiting for a football game. What a great game to visit to experience Eugene and Autzen stadium. The future is bright in Eugene with Coach Lanning at the helm! Edited October 13, 2024Oct 13 by OregonDucks
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Will Oregon fans finally get behind DG? He beat Texas last season and now Ohio State this season. He is a BIG GAME QB and there is no one that I would rather have with the game on the line. His down the field throws were money tonight.

October 13, 2024Oct 13 Congratulations to DL and staff for getting that FIRST Big Time Victory under their belt Congratulations to ALL the players for an A Plus effort and the reward of the victory . They keep getting better and overcoming their mistakes. Going forward, barring any let downs OBD's put themselves in one of the drivers seat for a spot in the BIG title game. A special thanks to usc and ucla for trying to run away from the Ducks by joining the BIG. Inadvertantly opening the door for OBD's to join the BIG. Now the nations football fans know the Oregon Ducks simply belong. And the Buckeye fans silence is louder than the noise level at Autzen Now, obe game at a time..... Well done and GO DUCKS.......

October 13, 2024Oct 13 Author Administrator The bad thing about the Buckeye fans at Autzen? So damn many of them. The good thing about so many Buckeye fans at Autzen? Many bought season tickets for nothing....UO Athletic Department says, "thanks." And they have tales to tell when they get home that will increase our audience on television, and at Autzen in the future! Mr. FishDuck
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Moderator After the obvious tOSU bias on the first drive... I couldn't watch. Thankfully the better team actually won... despite the refs. I'll sleep well tonight and be far too energetic tomorrow. Go Ducks!
October 13, 2024Oct 13 That kickoff play where we drilled the OSU player was deliberate. I can't believe the call, but we had the 15 yard penalty on OSU from the previous play so Lanning decided to go for it. So even if OSU recovered it on the 40, they would have ended up on the 25. Crazy, genius, massive big coconuts call!
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Absolutely Amazing Game. Both QB's were "on"! tOSU running backs owned the first half. Oregon's owned the second half. Time management was spot-on and the "correct" decisions based upon the current situation where made, and "mostly" executed. Both teams have some Very, very Good, NFL caliber, receivers. The Oregon Fans made up for a very good travel showing by tOSU fans. So much so, that I believe at least Six of the eight penalties against tOSU can be laid directly at the Oregon Fans making it Impossible for them to think...let alone hear, at the line of scrimmage. Neither team believed themselves the inferior. For me. The Best and most Entertaining game in the Dan Lanning Era! I WILL Definitely be watching the replay and cannot wait till these two teams meet up in a rematch in a couple months! Oregon Ducks Football Absolutely Rocks!!
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Sometimes things don’t make sense. tOSU appears to have monsters on their team, especially at the WR and DB positions. tOSU cornerback, Burke, is as big as Terrance Ferguson . . . But I don’t care that it doesn’t make sense. WE BEAT tOSU!!!!!!!!
October 13, 2024Oct 13 Fun Stat... Ryan Day is 0-2 against Oregon. Only HC at Ohio State to lose to Oregon... Let alone twice. Chip Kelly is 0-5 against Oregon since he left. 0-4 as a HC and 0-1 as an OC. Love ya Chip but take this L and get out of here!
October 13, 2024Oct 13 To me, those were two heavyweight teams going toe-to-toe for a full 60 minutes. Either team could have won the game. Oregon proved to everyone that they are capable of beating any team in college football, if they play up to their standard.
October 13, 2024Oct 13 On the season card I filled out for he Ducks, I had predicted a close win by the Ducks tonight because I thought he teams reasonably matched and,,,The game was at Autzen (which saw good for about1-2 points). So I am ecstatic. Not that my predictions mean anything, but I also foresaw a slip-up that no one sees coming and a loss in the B1G championship game. This season has simply been too unpredictable to think that anyone will run the table. I had thought the SEC would be easier to forecast this year than almost any conference. How wrong that is turning out to be. Bama was fortunate to win at home today over South Carolina, Georgia struggled some (owing to playing a scad of young pups and almost blowing a three touchdown lead, Ole Miss inexplicably lost to LSU (although it is very difficult to win in Baton Rouge on a Saturday night) and Vandy just keeps chugging along with its third straight SEC win, and on the road no less. The SEC has but one undefeated team, Texas, and that streak may be history this time next week. So we just experienced an unbelievable uplift from he win tonight, but the path through a 16-team playoff field is likely to be a minefield. So tighten your chinstraps and enjoy the ride as long as it lasts. It promises to be an experience that few of us will ever forget.

But didn't kick one that would have made the Nuts score a touchdown at the end instead of being able to get a FG and made my angina throught the roof. But yeah, I'm nitpicking at this point. Monday morning quarterbacking. Hind-sighting. And, frankly, a bit drinky at this point...........
