every win is a good win! Actually it was a decent defensive game. Especially when you beat a big10 team.
Not sure I remember the last time ducks won a game with just a TD? Different era with emphasis on defense now .
it's not all Arroyo on the play calls. I think there's some stubbornness by Cristobol at work in the conservative game plans. And of course, the Ducks had 7 or 8 (if you count Mitchell's 1st end zone touch) drops today. That's 1/4 of the passes Herbert threw today. Cut that in half and Oregon actually sustains more than 1 drive all that said, I'd like Arroyo to be replaced. Cristobol may dictate the template but Arroyo calls the plays and too much of his play-calling has been predictable...and boring although that fake punt/FG/WTF play was not boring
Usually, in football if you have a good an and decent protection, you have a good passing attack. But this o doesn't seem to do a good job at getting people open.
think your right on Marios stubbornness to open it up. He's an O lineman that believes in a between tackles running game. IM sure he's going to get an ear full from some alum's about the passing game.
i think theres a few problems this is the first year in a long time Oregon doesnt have an elite RB. Then the recievers outside of Mitchell just havent been good. No seperation and too many drops.
