Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted September 3, 2022 It is back my friends, the thread for discussing the actual game as it happens. Now we can discuss the game here before and after, and of course have other threads about elements of the game, but the short reactions and thoughts while the game is in progress is meant for this thread. I have had to ban a few people in the past...simply because of this thread. They were fine during normal forum discussion, but turned into something ugly in this thread when things in the game did not go well. Posting negative is fine, but going dark on the entire program, the future of Oregon football, the IQ and tenure of Dan Lanning over one play, one decision or even one game is too far. No venting. Telling us you don't like the interception and adding some salt to it is fine, but hammering us 10 times in the thread about how stupid something is--will be deleted. This is a place to let go, but not vent. Can you tell the difference? Again....negative is fine! This is the hard part of moderating, and that is explaining how 95% of the negative written is just fine. We can be critical of player performance and coaching decisions, but we cannot get personal on them. I really do want you all to have fun with this, and sorry for having to delve into it, but I know I need to spell this out for a few people. Now let's have some fun discussing the first game of the Dan Lanning era! 1 2 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirklandduck No. 2 Share Posted September 3, 2022 As expected, the stands at this “neutral” site are almost entirely red. Let’s hope OBD makes that place dead silent today! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 3 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Oh good grief. Look at the stands… Is there any green at all? It looks solid red. And they wonder why we make fun of “Neutral City?” Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirklandduck No. 14 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Nix seems to be comfortable in the offense, which it great. Now it’s up to Dillingham to call the right plays and the other skill players to execute. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherOD No. 23 Share Posted September 3, 2022 3rd and 11 is tough to defend as a DB if you run backwards 13 yards before you turn around. 1st series on D so it's understandable. The chance to get off the field on 3rd and long was there though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherOD No. 31 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I had a feeling the offense was setting up to take a shot. I think if you run that sort of script, you are expecting to get a guy more open than Seven. If you are going to throw that? Maybe try 6-3, 6-5, or 6-5 instead of 5-8? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherOD No. 38 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Other than Bassa getting ran over by a freight train of a TE, the front 7 looks ok to me. The DB group is off to a tough start. Georgia to me looks like they are going right at them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
