Pennsylvania Duck Moderator No. 1 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Ex-Washington coach Chris Petersen, now working as a television analyst on FOX, sounded giddy after watching UCLA dispose of Utah. “This wasn’t a statement game, this was a movement game,” Petersen said. “This is legit now. Chip needed this win to take his program to the next level. They've got a bye, then at Oregon, and it’s going to be ‘on.’” Canzano: Oregon-UCLA shaping up like a Chip Kelly Super Bowl WWW.JOHNCANZANO.COM Undefeated Chip Kelly visits Autzen Stadium on Oct. 22. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mic No. 3 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I've always liked Chris Petersen and hoped he would be Oregon's Head Coach someday, like... right after Mark Helfrich was let go. Then he went to Washington and his reputation suffered a bit for that. If memory serves me correctly, he was an assistant coach here at Oregon once (?). Regardless, I'm not surprised he's excited about UCLA but it's probably because of Chip Kelly. I believe he admired Chip when he was coaching for the Ducks and would have accepted the offer to follow in his footsteps after he left Oregon. It ought to be a marvelous game for him to watch - because I think he still harbors love for both Kelly and Oregon. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong about any of this. Charles?
