Looks like Indiana is winning the "Middle Eight" minutes.

Maybe we look like a top 25 team --maybe

IU is an excellent team, but we look beyond unimpressive in the first half.

It appears that Oregon players let all of the compliments get in their heads after the Penn State victory.

Hope they can reset and make adjustments in the second half. I’d like to see some WR/TE screens and some plays across the middle.

Defense is playing good enough to win. It’s the offense that is not showing up consistently.

You can sub way to many players and risk gaining/losing momentum.

I would think that after the Ducks watched UCLA beat PSU, that their PSU win didn't go to their heads.

II’m watching PSU crap the bed against Northwestern in Happy Valley. They’re an average team. Our win doesn’t look so impressive. Nobody looks great today. Not even Ohio State.

So UCLA beating PSU last week was not a fluke. Well, that sucks.

Will we ever find a reliable kicker? Going on 10yrs of this

They just need to go with Hurych.

I have had to step up. Changed out of the Yellow Oregon T to a Green Oregon T. GO DUCKS!

Oh, maybe top 20 even.

Where is 23 -Dierre Hill, Jr.?

Can't watch the game so I need some eyes...

Is Lupoi running the Mint, or what I would go with(the 3-4 which takes away most of what IU does). Are we blitzing (we shouldn't unless it's a corner blot in the short side of the field)?

Is Stein going deep (he should every series)? Are we attacking the middle of the LOS (that is where their strength is, but we can handle them inside)?

This game is about taking it to them... especially on offense. If Moore doesn't have time, max Protect or roll him.out.

On defense, take away the out routes and slangs with the OLBs. That will also allow #9 to handle the edge and cover those routes I mentioned.

My hack opinion of course.

Great punt and coverage...

I'm sick and tired of screen passes.

We definitely look like a young team today. Worried about Dante, he looks really beat up taking hit after hit.

The Oregon punter should receive the play of the game. LOL

Not happy with play calling on both sides of the ball. Missed tackles are a huge problem, and playing 5 yards off the receivers isn't helping.

Great punt and coverage...tackling is atrocious today!

Now all of a sudden the officials are calling PI?

I'm worried that we're going to lose unless Stein and Lupoi get a lot more aggressive.

time to play some weaker teams

Weak energy against a hungry well coached team so far

Stein is having trouble making consistent good adjustments. It’s now or never.

Weare being outcoached on both sides of the ball so far. But not by so much that we cannot turn it around.

We definitely need to throw the ball farther down the field. Its not that far off

A couple of QB runs would help keep the IU defense on its heels.

Man Im glad I did not put any money on this team for a national championship.

Coach Stein has had 2 weeks to come up with this game plan?!

Except Dante doesn’t have time and he throws it away if there is any defender in the vicinity.

It's starting to look like Montana State is our best win of the year so far.

Did the OL think they could mail in today’s effort?

Got to see first half highlights...

Yeah, we need to junk the Mint. Frankly, it sucks because everyone has figured it out. Not to mention, two down lineman on any do is a definite no no.

We will not be at any team with elite OL, and a very good QB. The Mint defense is unable to stop the multitude group of formations teams are using.

Our interior OL also aren't agile enough to use zone blocking. They must go ahead to head. Unless Stein starts using Jet packages.

I really don't think IU is that physical. They scouted well and are attacking our flaws and unwillingness to find ANY way to throw downfield

Moore looks a bit out of it

PICK SIX FOR THE FRESHMAN!

They just look like the better team, came to play. Out coached. Still feels like our coaches are not good second half adjusters, haven't seen that since Helfrich

Indiana is a really good team, but that was a bad pass.

I knew as soon as I typed that we'd get a pick 6! Now let's take the momentum all the way to the victory!!!

we needed that

D showing up Big when needed, now march out down the field and put up 7.

And my fingernails were just growing back.

We don't have an all 5*/all first round picks front 7 to make the mint work. What Patricia is doing at tOSU is impressive

Wish we had a different OC at this moment, I had thought we were keeping things vanilla against lesser opponents but 👀🤔‼️🤬. We definitely look like a young team today. Worried about Dante, he looks really beat up taking hit after hit.

great game

The announcer just said we only have 45 yards of offense in the second half... gross
