    Civil war will be juicy this year. Probably another Ducks blowout though

    The lowly Ducks sounds about right.

    Very much. Got to hand it to the kid. Nothing spectacular, but gets it done. Great game manager. Oregon's totally undisciplined defense hasn't hurt either. This is the worst display of Oregon defense in a long time. No one has been in position to even come close to making a big play. I'm not gonna slam Lanning. It's too early. Georgia is awesome, but they're winning with what looks like vanilla play calling. Now on Mix, he is what he is, and it's time to see if Ty Thompson can play , or not. Mix had his chance, and failed miserably.

    I actually feel bad for Coach Lanning. Many of his players look like they've never played before, and sure as heck have never tackled.

    Georgia’s style of offense has really given nothing to pounce on. I mean they were all in on that one play and that little wideout was wide open in the end zone.

    I’m interested to see how the Ducks bounce back from this game. That will tell me a lot about the coaching staff.

    I’m not sure there’s a team in the country that could come into this atmosphere and pull out a victory. That’s a road game to start thdd Ed year against the defending national champs

    the Duck D has looked lost, confused, and baffled. They'll give up 50 if they don't get some 3rd Q stops

    Nix threw a bad interception and is locking on 1st options rather than going thru progressions

    I think a more disciplined team will play better. The Ducks defense looks like the three stooges. They're lining up so far off receivers, Bennett doesn't even have to think of going to a second read. He's been able to dink and dunk all day. On offense, a better QB would have Oregon in the game. Nix doesn't seem to be able to survey the field, at all. The Line is doing pretty good on protection. Nix just isn't that good.

    The SEC can have their QB back. I haven’t been impressed whatsoever.

    Lanning needs to nix, Nix. Ty Thompson needs to get a chance to prove that 5 star rating . If he gets picked , he does. Ain't any worse than watching Nix.

    I know I just want to see what the kid is all about. If he sucks ass that is a pill I can swallow. Just leave no stones unturned

    A 3rd down stop would be cool

    I’d rather lose early against the defending champs than knowing we’re not going anywhere and getting smacked in the mouth vs. Georgia early

    Brutal. Ducks look like a Juco team today. Georgia's great! But these Ducks don't look as good as i thought they'd be. I'm surprised how awful the defense is.
