Phunteratc    No. 3 Share Posted December 30, 2021 (edited) Can someone explain to me why we were so short of players on defense. So short that we had O linemen playing D line. TE playing defense. Is is true we had returning players just opt out for no reason given? If that is true how does that impact the studs that showed up and put it on the line tonight? Just curious what is up. I know we had some players declare for the draft and opted out. I’m talking about returners that didn’t. Anyone know?  Travis Dye was not a disaster. I sure hope he returns for next year. Edited December 30, 2021 by Phunteratc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Axel    No. 4 Share Posted December 30, 2021 I didn't expect the Ducks to win, but I credit them for playing a competitive second half. We outscored Oklahoma 29 to 17 after the break. This game should be easy to put behind us; we can look forward to new coaches and a renewed optimism.  On the other hand, the two Utah losses will stick in my beak for a long time, especially the defeat in the conference championship, which cost us another Rose Bowl appearance. It was our first loss in a Pac-12 title game, a bitter, humiliating shellacking, and it was Mario Cristobal's parting "gift" to Duck fans.  When the Ducks aren't playing, it is always fun to watch unlikable teams--like Washington, USC, and Ohio State--and root against them. Now there's a reason to add Miami to the mix. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyin Vee    No. 6 Share Posted December 30, 2021 With all the portal, opt outs etc, the other way to look at these types of bowl games is as this winters version of next years spring game.  I’m old enough to rememberers buying into the independents bowl and excited to be there, and as it turned out, so was Tulsa!
