Football is back baby!

(@Strenuus head go bomb!)

Watching a little of the Ohio State game because the Ducks play them next week.
 
Beavs need to show for that game. Very important for the positioning this season.
Ducks ain't beating the Buckeyes. That game will be over by the second quarter.

You think unranked Minnesota was better equipped to match up with OSU than the 11th-ranked Ducks?

Gophers put over 400 yards up against Bucks. Bucks scored 1 rushing touchdown. OSU's secondary is very suspect.
If Oregon's D shows up and they dont turn the ball over they are in the game.

I think the Ducks are overrated and ranked higher than they should be. Top 25 yes but 11 is a bit high?
I also think Minnesota caught them off guard on a week they were still working out the bugs.
The Buckeyes will be ready and the Ducks will be left wanting to look ready.
Biggest game of the weekend at Ohio State. This game is a runaway.
Duck lose by 14+ points.

The Bears need to sorry about Hawaii.
They seem to lose one every year they should win.

Edit- Wow the phone got me. I am now on my desktop.

The Beavs need to worry about Hawaii.
They seem to lose one every year that they should win.

it's possible I exaggerated for dramatic effect

although, the longest drive ever is around 790 yards. of course, that was a drive that bounced a couple of times on a concrete golf-cart track. The drive put the golfer 300 yards past the cup. I think he ended up with a triple-bogey on that hole
 
I’d take Beavs +7. They always compete. Most losses last year we’re close games.

I think UCLA will beat LSU as well

that must suck to have the longest drive ever but also the most shots ever on the same hole. Bitter sweet. Lol.
 
I just dropped a couple pole saws off at my son's house which is close to Autzen Stadium and the air is so bad from fire smoke that I don't know how they'll be able to play football without passing out....got home and the air is crystal clear in the coastal range...just called my son and told him to pack up the dogs and our grandson and come out where they can breathe

I have one of these and love it.

Oregon’s offense seems boring a predictable. Not even passing the ball
 
Verdell and Dye are not doing much of anything with the running game, but nice TD finally with the pass to Johnson.
 
Oooh. Oklahoma getting challenged by Tulane in the 4th quarter. Love seeing upsets.

it isn't the RB's as much as it is the Duck OLine getting outworked. There are no holes. Now, to be fair, I think Oregon thought they could get by with vanilla offense and save a big chunk of their playbook for OSU. There has not been a single sweep or off-tackle play....all runs up the middle

and Oregon's zone defense is playing too soft of coverage. May have to go for some man-to-man
 
Quick question. Still think they deserve that lofty number 11 ranking?

Another quick question.
Do you still think they will compete against Ohio State?
