November 17, 2024Nov 17 Embarrassing performance from the offense in this half, Gabriel has to be better, has to realize you can't check down every time on 3rd down, push the ball down the field!!!! O-line has to man up. Unacceptable half.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Author Trash half. Hope Lanning and the coaches lay into the players and light a fire.

November 17, 2024Nov 17 Moderator So they're up instead. Crappy half for OBD. Something better happen at the half to light a fire.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Given that fact that we have no offense tonight, plus the fact the our Ducks no longer play offense in the 3rd quarter... This could be a very long road trip home.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Author Wisky’s OC is out calling Stein. More creativity and better execution.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Why waste all that time on two plays right before the half and not take any timeouts?

November 17, 2024Nov 17 It's not the injuries, it's not, it's horrible horrible play calling, horrible QB play, horrible line play, just a horrible half of uninspired ball by a team that thought they just had to show up.

You don’t want to drop 2 games in a row to unranked teams to finish the regular season, miss the conference championship game and leave it up to the committee.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 I've been surprised this year with how deep this team is overall that having a few people out injured just makes us massively worse. Everyone has injuries piling up by week 11. When we're near 100% healthy we're unstoppable, but a few players short of that and the wheels seem to just come off.

Oregon’s backups should be better than most of Wisconsin’s starters. It’s play calling and execution. Edited November 17, 2024Nov 17 by OregonDucks
November 17, 2024Nov 17 I hate to say this but unless they do what they haven't done most of the season ... come out and score in the 3rd... they will loose this game.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Moderator We get the ball after half. That first drive could be the whole ballgame.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 I have the suspicion that Oregon is easier to defend without Tez Johnson in the slot. Losing Lowe did not help, either. Wisconsin looks to this non-coach to be playing well. Our tackles are being pressed hard in pass protection. We need to find a second receiver to target. Holden? Ferguson? Sadiq? I will be curious to see what Stein can devise. On defense, Wisconsin had better success by running the ball toward the outside. There needs to be an adjustment to curb that, putting them back in second and third and long.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Moderator This is why I was the only person to predict a Wisconsin win in the prediction contest. Wisconsin will make Oregon’s offense one-dimensional and tire the defense out to win a low scoring game. It’s tough to get up for a road game 2000 miles east with a bye week on the horizon. They’re playing like they just want to “make it to the bye week”. That’s a recipe for disaster.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Moderator Ok, this is where good teams show their mettle. Recover from a crappy first half and win. Defense not playing badly, just not getting any help from the offense. Ducks need to adjust the scheme, execute on this first drive of the 3rd and run the damn ball

November 17, 2024Nov 17 Well I think we are going to find out if we have that Championship pedigree in the second half!
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Going by Stiens play calling history in the second half we are in serious trouble.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Author Why aren’t Oregon’s TEs getting more targets with the wide receiver injuries?
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Author That’s unfortunate. The turf monster got T-Ferg. Hope he’s okay. Another punt to start the 3rd… Edited November 17, 2024Nov 17 by OregonDucks
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Author Wisconsin looks like the better team tonight. They are starting to get chunk plays on offense and are playing more physical. Edited November 17, 2024Nov 17 by OregonDucks

November 17, 2024Nov 17 Author Can we trade OC’s in-game? The Wisconsin OC is calling the game Stein should be and is not.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Author Matayo is the most improved player on the team. He’s been a monster. Great play at a big time in the game. Edited November 17, 2024Nov 17 by OregonDucks
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Author The offense needs to respond. We need to stick with the run. The downfield passing game is not there tonight. DG needs to use his legs to pick up first downs.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 I realize all teams are hurting now but not all teams have a #1 target on their back and the Ducks are not super deep. Injuries matter to THIS team
November 17, 2024Nov 17 Absolutely have to have a long touchdown drive so our defense can rest or I’m afraid we will loose this game.
