DCDuckfan No. 2 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Miami undoubtedly had the better athletes, but in a single game matchup, I absolutely believe Oregon could have beat Miami with Joey Ballgame on the field. Underdogs....yep, but the way the Ducks played in the Fiesta against the same Colorado team that smoked Nebraska...I have no doubt that the Ducks could beat Miami if they played that day. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say that but OSU beat that Miami team the next year with 0 first round picks and only two draft picks in the fist 3 rounds that draft year. Miami was good, but beatable. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIFY... if some of those dudes were on the contiguous US back then, they would have been out faster than a Don James Era linebacker...

Haywarduck Moderator No. 9 Share Posted February 20, 2022 I always look at it as what would happen over 10 games. In 10 games Oregon wins a few, there was a chance, a pretty good one with Joey leading the way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to bring up the 10 game scenario, while the Ducks woulda' had a punchers chance, Miami wins 8 out of 10 games.

Duck 1972 No. 11 Share Posted February 20, 2022 That's the problem we'll never know. Proved the theory of it's all about the money, not merit. Oh well as MLK said "I believe we'll reach the mountain top someday". Maybe sooner than everyone thinks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
