    even if they had won, they stink. how did they end up with so many freshman on defense and offensive line? terrible recruiting lately, not imaginative playcalling.

    Prukop's oregon career should be over. He almost threw the ball away on the prior series as well. Why on earth would you throw it up for grabs in that situation? Oregon had the game in their hands, 2 time outs, plenty of time. A completly moronic play and decision.

    This is on Helfrich for recruiting such a mediocre smaller division quarterback and giving him the starting job. Herbert should start next week but he won't.

    Wow, and the new Blazer announcer is trolling the Ducks on Twitter, great way to engage the fans in your new market, Mr. Seattle.

    Back to back close loses, but losing at home to Colorado with their backup QB is less excuseable. I wasted my time watching this shit only to have Dakota just throw it away.

    So at what point do they finally fire Helfrich? They have to realize now that he was carried by Mariota.

    Time to fire everybody. There are guys on that coaching staff who have been there since Reagan have been in offense. This rehire culture and continunity bullshit is a cover for being fucking cheap. If you don't want to buy out their contracts and accept mediocrity then go up to Corvalis.

    They clearly aren't recruiting well anymore. The team has taken a dump in terms of culture since Chip left.

    What makes this worse is that the defense played pretty well in the second half and ultimately made the play to stop them on 3rd and short... Prukop and Helfrich/Lubick just gave the finger to the best our defense could do.

    Oregon doesn't seem to be landing much talent anymore. They have a lot of good RBs and WRs, but that's it. We used to always have a handful of good defenders, but who do we have now? The offense has played well enough to win, but the defense simply can't stop anyone.

    Sadly, I honestly don't know who they are going to get to come in to change things up. We shold have hired Peterson when Kelly left but they didn't even interview anybody. What's more worrisome is just how fast things unravelled at Oregon. Other places like Washington, SoCal and Nebraska can go decades with bad coaching and pick up like that. Oregon had three HOF caliber coaches in Brooks, Belottti and then they leave.... the place becomes all milquetoast. (minus Mariota) The crowds. The players. The coaches.... This is just not a football state. You can't maintain anything here. Soccer and the NBA yeah.

    I started watching College football right when Chip Kelly took over...before that I had never been into it, but his offenses were so entertaining to watch. I've been a bit spoiled in that regard. Not sure how to root for a mediocre/bad college team. At least with pro sports there is the promise of a high draft pick. Or you can eek into the playoffs as a mediocre team and still have a "shot" for an upset.

    But in college, the more you suck the worse you get, because you can't land top recruits.
