November 20, 20222 yr I saw it. I didn't like it. Yet, it was worse than I could have imagined. Did we not learn about getting too cute last week?

I mean I like Dilly giving the te some different looks to react to but this doesn't feel like the time.
November 20, 20222 yr 2 plays tonight trying to get cute...2 fails. Cute last week failed. Bad things seem to happen with TT in. Thornton 2 fumbles...that one may be on TT and play calling. D gets a big stop and the O give Utah a TD 😠
November 20, 20222 yr They gotta get past it...Still up by 7, and they'll get the ball. That will not decided the game.
November 20, 20222 yr the defense just gets was big stop and we give a team that is down with nothing going their way, momentum.
November 20, 20222 yr I really don't think that fumble touchdown was on the coaches. There just seems to be a too many players from the Cristobal era that are mental mush when it comes to killer instinct. I have never seen so many unforced errors as I've seen since Cristobal came to Eugene. How many changes in momentum will we see with his players?

How did that play show a lack of killer instinct?
November 20, 20222 yr Dilly is giving up on the run game right now... Need to get the run game going again.
November 20, 20222 yr Moderator Poor Ty Thompson. He's either cursed, or he is a curse. It's almost comical what happens when he comes into a game.

November 20, 20222 yr Perhaps the adjustment was to utilize Ty legs...If that was plan B, I hope he has a plan C. The offense needs a running threat from the qb.
November 20, 20222 yr I don't see how they win this game. The defense has to win a game. OUR defense has to win a game. Good luck with that. Why in the heck can't we run the ball? All you need to see if if there's a back in the backfield to know what's coming. Ugly.

But plays like that show up out of the blue, andow and behold, the team OBD should kill, gets back in the game. That kind of play changes momentum far too much. And it was constant in the Cristobal era.
November 20, 20222 yr Yep gave a dead team momentum and here we are. Looks like Utah made defensive halftime adjustments. Haven't seen it from OBD.
November 20, 20222 yr Washington didn't beat Oregon. Utah won't beat Oregon. Other than Georgia, only Oregon has beaten Oregon. Two out of the three losses will have been lost by the coaches. Don't see Dillingham going anywhere right now. He's not ready. He needs to get a lot less cute. Been nervous about Lupoi since the get go, and NOT sold now.
November 20, 20222 yr Moderator That turnover is the turning point. Nothing seems to be going right since then.
November 20, 20222 yr I want to know why Oregon abandoned the running game? Only 14 carries through the 3rd quarter. I just don't understand the game plan with an injured Nix. For comparison purposes, Utah has 2x the number of carries. Edited November 20, 20222 yr by OregonDucks expand

I just don't understand the game plan with an injured Nix. I'm totally with you. When we have run, is been about 5 years or more per carry.

I just don't understand the game plan with an injured Nix. Utah adjusted. They’re completely disregarding runs by Nix because he can’t. That allows them to focus on the running backs more and now they’re stuffing the run more often.
November 20, 20222 yr On 11/19/2022 at 10:05 PM, OregonDucks said: I want to know why Oregon abandoned the running game? So do I!!! Dillingham seems to have a tendency of getting pass happy at times and it just doesn't set Oregon up for success. We need to run the ball!
November 20, 20222 yr Need to shift gears and find a way to attack the middle portion of the field. Utah is taking everything else away and betting they can hold up against the Duck WRs (and TEs).
November 20, 20222 yr The backers can fill their gaps quicker without having to account for Nix. When Nix is healthier, backers have to account for him, which is just enough for our o-line to get up to them, which is not happening tonight

November 20, 20222 yr Irving is not having a great game with at just under 4 yards a carry but he is not able to get any momentum.

November 20, 20222 yr Liked the Thornton play more, I think it was (almost) there. Not really thrilled 3rd and 10 and you throw a one yard pass hoping to get 9, when you have already ran it 63 times in the game.

November 20, 20222 yr Thanks to Rising for throwing it into the ground. Basically whomever screws up the least in the last few minutes wins this game. Despite everything it still might be us.
