Here we are my Duck-Buddies, the thread for pondering the actual game as it happens.  Let's discuss before, and during the game!

I have made a major change in how we will moderate our GameDay threads. Bottom line, is that you will be allowed to spew your frustration, to vent, as you wish.

But Note the Parameters:

--This is for GameDay threads only; you have to behave in the regular forum threads as in the past.

--You cannot take shots at those who disagree with you, just like in the forum during the week.

Remember how we discussed this upfront in this thread.

Let's Have Fun Posting During the Game!

Our own NJDuck and his family are seated on the 40 yard line, mid-way up at this game. Good for him!

I’m looking for the offense to make this a statement game. If they don’t score at least 45 I’ll be disappointed.

Well, that's a bad way to start

Rutgers weak secondary is well documented. But instead of immediately attacking it they go with 2 run plays and a short pass that resulted in a fumble…😬

Finney shows why he'll be a freshman All American. Rutgers gets a FG. Offense needs to get it together

That's more like it. Noah for 68 yd TD

Hopefully that means the offense is settling down.

Didn't they say this was a sold out game?

I'm seeing a lot of empty seats.

Running the ball well does that.

Methinks I may have underestimated the final outcome...

SADIQ is have what may be the game of his career.

At the game. Lots of Duck fans here!

258 yards of offense in the first 17 minutes

Rutgers fans have already checked out! 😂

Yeah...

With Oregon's loss last week I knew I didn't want to be Rutgers.

And I don't think Rutgers wants to be Rutgers right now..

Whittington with 120 yards in the first half!

Ok...

I talked about how some of the new rules were good and others bad.

The new rule concerning injured players I said was going to result in some dumb penalties. And I'll be honest this is one of them.

Sometimes after some hits it takes a second for a hurt player to realized they're hurt.

I thought Rutgers would put up more of a fight. Wittington is lookin great

They are fighting like hell out there.

But Oregon has a fire in their bellies and is just physically superior.

I want to say there are more players on the line of scrimmage than normal on defense..

Nice banner!

Do we dub this, "abuse by committee "?

The goal for the remainder of this game should be minimize injury exposure to main people.

Dante 14/18. 279 yards. 4 TDs.

At the half. Amazing. What a fabulous turnaround from last week.

Is Austin Novosad available to play?

Heckuva first half. Sadiq and you will find.

Hopefully he's ok after that TD grab. Johnson and Saleapaga seem to be doing ok in his absence.

This is the kind of effort I wanted to see, just eating nails and breathing fire. Wish more of that offensive fire showed up last game but maybe that was the spark needed to get them out of complacency for the rest of the season.

I don't think your going to be disappointedl

Whelp my score prediction was wayyyy off and I couldn't be happier about it! 🦆

My stress level is enjoying this game. The Duck is getting a nice workout!

Rutgers is asking for an annulment of the B1G expansion.

Oh my goodness. Davison is both thunder AND lightning. Serious wheels on that long run then big burst to the endzone.

I'm starting to feel bad for Rutgers.
