I'd agree with you though I keep coming back to how we have only had one game with scoring more than 40 this year. It feels like we're lacking some offensive firepower.

HDuck No. 53 Share Posted October 19 Regarding under the radar Indiana. First year head coach Curt Cignetti had 13 players follow him from James Madison to Indiana. 8 of those 13 are starting among the 22 first-team guys, 2 others are on the two deep, and 1 of the other 3 guys is the designated kick returner. That's a pretty good culture infusion and shortens the instruction time for a new staff. His last year at JMU was 11-2 with those guys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastBayDuckDad Moderator No. 57 Share Posted October 19 Very enlightening to watch the Illinois-Michigan today. I'm glad Oregon plays Illinois here and Michigan there. I'm more impressed with former's offense and less with the latter's defense than I was two weeks ago. That said: The Wolverine offense is truly one dimensional. In spite of years in college, their QB is bad throwing out of the pocket and the Michigan O-line has let the Illini D-line pressure him way too much. The Ducks should be able to get a couple of scores up, harass Tuttle and not allow them to control the clock with a plodding ground and pound, 100,000+ Big House fans notwithstanding. The Ducks will have the advantage over Illinois in talent and should be able to control the LOS and challenge their secondary over the top. I would anticipate a hangover from what looks like a win today as the Illini haven't beaten UM since 2009. Plus the 2000+ mile trip to Eugene. Go Ducks! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of that could be the OL isn’t is as effective on rush blocking as last season but a good part is that Bucky Irving was a special player. Jordan and Noah are above average college backs and perform well for the most part but Bucky was a nightmare for defenses to bring down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Joseph Moderator No. 91 Share Posted October 20 It Just Means More to give your head coach an extension after losing your bowl game to Arizona, running off the All-B12 QB Gabe in favor of a youngster who threw 3 INTS in said bowl game, and without a returner on the O line going into the B1G Boy SEC. What are these ADs smoking? What is wrong with paying someone a hefty salary and worrying about the guy getting poached when the contract should give the AD a 'Right of 1st Refusal'; an opportunity to counter a 3rd party offer? It's PRIME TIME. It took Neon 2 years to kind of do what C1G has done in one year. DeBoer, What Is He Good For? Not every 1 score game in Dixie will fill your cup.
