Love it.

Also... Just going to throw this out there. But does anyone think for a minute that James Franklin sat his team down and made them take their medicine like that? With that passion for getting better?

Also anyone else notice that Lanning was doing the full team meeting in the indoor practice facility and not the comfy as auditorium they have set up for team meetings?

Lanning made them take their medicine as he ripped them for their mistakes against Indiana. And the players took their medicine happily which showed against Rutgers.

I was thinking the same thing. Folding chairs vs. the comfy theater seating. Coaches sat around a basic conference table as well.

Appropriate theme for the Rutgers game "Go to the Doctor".

"Now's our opportunity to reset, refocus. No poor me, right? We're not afraid of hard work, but now we can work a little bit harder. We can prepare a little bit more. We can give you a better plan. We can execute at a higher level."

"I challenge everyone in this program to use it as fuel. Let's lean into the opportunity to get better."

'Ducks vs Them' recaps how doctor visit fueled Oregon win...

For Oregon fans, a game week isn't over now until they've watched "Ducks vs Them," the cinematic recap from Scott Anderson and the Oregon video team.

Penn St lost a tough game at home to a top ten team and never recovered. OBD does the same thing and Lanning shows the team film of recovering after being mauled by a bear! Aside from giving up bookend turnovers that lead to giving up ten points, the Ducks played about as flawless a game as I have seen.

Rutgers is not that good but they also aren't that bad. Before their 46 point blowout to the Ducks they had lost to Iowa by 10, Minnesota by 3, and Washington by 19. Hardly the doormat that OBD made them look like on Saturday. In those loses their offense had scored 28, 28 and 19. This blowout was more about the Ducks digging down deep to find a better team than they were before.

I think we may have just seen a young but dangerous team mature into a dangerous team. A+ coaching this week was nicely revealed in this week's episode.

Totally agree KK! Could not have said it better! THIS team could make a deep and deadly run into the playoffs!

If OBD completes league play with this intensity, we should get our opening playoff in Autzen!
