You KNOW what I mean.

How many times have we all thought...."this IS the year!" And our hopes were dashed by injuries, referees, weird stuff, etc.?

We protect our hearts as Duck fans, we only want to believe to a point. But you have to admit--this is a GOOD TEAM. Dante Moore is so much better than I EVER anticipated, and made clutch plays as if he was a senior. We had freshmen play as if they were seniors...

And we had coaches who took another big step UP.

We have as much a chance of winning a 'Natty as anyone. Are ready to pull off the shield from your Duck-Heart and truly BELIEVE this is the year?

Hill and Davidson need more reps. They were fantastic and easily the next two running backs tonight.

Limar looks like a pretty decent to good blocker but his running is frankly meh.

And Whittington is a threat to be a home run but if he doesn't hit a big play it's often not for many yards.

Meanwhile... Hill just ripped off yards using his speed and vision. Davidson had some fantastic blocks and some power runs.

Seriously ... Get those two the ball more. They are the future and the best two running backs on the roster right now.

I wholeheartedly agree, they are the next Duo at Oregon with the lightning and the thunder. Reminded me of good old days of fullbacks as lead blockers and short yardage backs. I'm just waiting for them to line up in the I formation!

I believe the trenches out muscled and out worked a very stout team tonight for one of the most hard nosed football games Oregon's had played in a long time. Reminds me of Stanford in the good old days.
