    Slight? I'm an Oregon fan I'm just saying we've gotten lucky with QB transfers lol. We need to be developing QBs because at some point we're going to get another Vernon Adams who was okay....but yeah.

    Ugly wins are better than pretty losses

    Gritty win!

    Saw alot of ducks walk off the field hurt or injured. Hope it doesn't thin them out with anything serious. An extra week to rest should help but it did concern me so many guts leaving the game hurt.

    Hopefully with a week off, they can heal up for the Huskies and then the Playoffs. Can Burch finally get healthy? Will Tez be able to come back?

    ....and why does DG keep throwing Red Zone picks? UGH!!!!

    Last night's the ball was tipped, I really wouldn't put that on him.

    But in the Red Zone, with both teams packed into smaller real estate, shorter quarterbacks have a more difficult time seeing open receivers.

    Everything Oregon had to say tonight about... jumping around during "Jump Around":

    Lanning: "Kind of like Pavlov's Dog, when you hear that song it means it's time to go."

    Boettcher: "We played that every single practice. We knew going into the 4th quarter that was going to be a mindset... That song brought us all together and realized that no matter what the score is, we have each other's backs."

    Gabriel: "We just choose to enjoy it."

    James: "It was kind of a reset button... I'm sure it kind of threw them off that we were on the other side jumping around to their song."

    yes

    looked like he landed badly on his right-arm/shoulder. He immediately grabbed his shoulder while laying on the ground. And he trotted to the sideline with his right arm hanging kind of motionless. Didn't look good considering a shoulder dislocation might sideline him for weeks

    True but the throw was way behind Lowe. It was a really bad throw.

    Several throws behind intended receivers in the first 3 quarters.

    Seems like he cleaned it up in the 4th though...

    Coldest game they played in all season and it could have been a lot colder at CR mid November. That stadium get a lot of wind too.

    SEC fans are so unbelievably entitled man.

    When the PAC was beating each other up, the PAC was just weak.

    Now that the SEC is beating up on each other, it's that the conference is just so good? How can anyone take the SEC seriously when they play four fucking OOC games?

    Alabama just played a school that has an undergraduate enrollment of 4,774 students. Gonzaga has more than that.

    They don't want to admit that they're not as good as they used to be. The transfer portal and NIL has massively leveled the playing field. There are former Bama and Georgia players all over the league.

    Also the 12 team playoff. I think that will be huge for a lot of programs.

    All you need is one fantastic game to knock someone off.

    I would love to see them not even make the final four.

    Ohio State and Michigan negotiated no night games for the last 3 weeks of the season in their TV contract.

    Having things like an easy game and no night games late in the season are things the Ducks need to look into doing.
