in the Big-10 vs SEC matchups: USC beat Texas A&M Ohio State drubbed Tennessee Michigan beat Alabama Illinois beat SC Missouri beat Iowa Big-10 wins so far, 4-1
I hope the Ducks look livelier than either of these two teams; Penn State seems especially listless. Surprising in a game where loser goes home.
I bet on the spread. I thought they would keep it closer than 11 points. They probably would have if they didn't melt down completely under the pressure. I should have taken my own advice to not bet on any sports game you care about the outcome. I personally wanted Boise to win so that should have been all there was to it.
I think we have had enough of the Ducks 2024 thread. Time to start a new one. Ducks 2025 might ring better now?
The memes on social media of Jeremiah Smith dominating the Ducks secondary are hilarious. That kid is amazing. Ducks basketball getting their ass kicked at home by Illinois right now.
well, the weather was nice. One nugget for future playoff games is that the couple seated behind us bought their tickets off the secondary market two days prior to game day for $200 each which was $100 below face value. STOMP
We are sitting good at qb anyway. Moore will be the starter the next two years. It's going to be tough to stock pile 5* players with NIL/Portal.
I don't know how brutal it really is he was a last minute flip to Oregon, so his commitment was very likely a soft one. And he's not a 5-star on the 247 composite, which is the 'gold standard', he's a 4-star. I'll admit, when he flipped to Oregon I wasn't as impressed as a lot of fans. I have watched some Hudl videos of him compared to videos of Akili Smith Jr. and honestly didn't see much difference...other than Smith being bigger, stronger, and maybe even faster. Smith was probably a little less polished as a passer and pure QB, but other than that, I was rating them about even as prospects. And yeah, I know, the recruiting sites don't agree, and sure I could be wrong I think Oregon will be fine with Dante Moore, Smith, and Novosad. And now, the Ducks have a lot more NIL leverage in the transfer portal https://www.maxpreps.com/ca/san-die...ith-jr/football/stats/?careerid=5bje1176ts6k4
It’s not that the loss is that “big” especially with the transfer portal Just pointing out how recruiting is a shit show since NLIs mean nothing
Curious to see on average how many kids actually graduate from the school they initially committed to over the next few years
