Good comments from A'Mauri Washington on UCLA #3 Knight. Respect. Good focus on practice! Oregon Ducks On SIOregon's A'Mauri Washington Doesn't Hold Back on UCLA's W...The No. 13 Oregon Ducks (3-1, 1-0 Big Ten) will have their defensive front tested when No. 21 UCLA (4-0, 2-0 Big Ten) marches one of the nation’s top rushing at

Irony of irony, Ducks are the 12th seed and get displaced by a team they beat, Boise St.

Before the game, that our poop didn't stink. After the game, that it smells like everyone else's, except sc's which is nuclear waste compared to ours.

Awesome comments. I keep writing Shakespearean soliloquies. So I'll try to be brief... Lanning's schemes worked against lessor talented and equal teams so much he didn't have to adjust. In the playoffs-both years- Cignetti and Day's adjusted and exploited those schemes. Boise State and Oklahoma State fed off what they saw in the playoffs. Misfiring in two games out of 26 the past two years wasn't cause for concern. I believe the complacency this year came from confirmation bias. The staff hadn't recognized each team wasn't "giving OBD time to execute" because those teams diagnosed how to take away our previous advantages. Three consecutive games told Lanning all he needed to know about what is going to work moving forward. Credit to him for being willing to adjust.

This evening at Fern Ridge.

I hope an on-field storm isn't Bruin. The team that played USC in LA shows up: clear and sunny skies. The team that played the Broncos and Cowboys: stormy weather. Weather or not, I think OBD, without the need for an umbrella, wins and covers. Back-to-back beatdowns of teams from Lost Angeles. 👌🤞😍

Sure hope so! But what did we all think about OK state?

I think it will be easier . . . we won't be tied in the 4th. This is Colorado 2.O in that they haven't played athletes like ours yet. Just shut down the run first and make Nico (try) and beat us. I think Chesney is a good coach, he just doesn't have all the players he needs yet.

Dylan Raiola preparing as the starter ahead of Oregon-UCLA https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/10/06/oregon-football-dylan-raiola-dan-lanning-ucla-dante-moore/92114454007/

I'm not sure lazy would be the right word for it. I think the program got complacent. Lots of success overall the last several years and internal hires belied the difficulties in replacing both coordinators because they had been with the program for a while.

Not only was Don Essig my principal in high school, he's my current weather man!

I completely agree, and thus my hesitation. Quite different from how I felt in the pre-season!

I hear its supposed to be raining touchdowns. Leaving puddles of Pooh Bear tears.

I was at the North Eugene/ Creswell JV game last evening(My sophomore grandson plays offense and defense). I mentioned to my daughter that the weather was what used to be called Indian Summer. She laughed and said I'd have to call it Indigenous Summer... It's a great time of year in Eugene. Even if it's getting too crowded.

I mentioned in another thread that Lanning is pissed. I think that's true. I think he takes full responsibility for this team also. After the USC game, his eyes changed. His tone changed. Dude is salty for sure. But it's turned inward imo.

Moore wont be back for this game.

I agree LH. I was thinking let the speedster Jackson be a spy and we always have a big body with speed around the ball. Containing passing QBs at the cost of bringing pressure and sacks has not looked good so far but it also might be the best way to contain a dominant run team if the edges can stay discipled and hold the edge instead of always crashing towards the ball. Time for the D to step up and put their stamp on the game.

It would be nice to have Dante back for UCLA, they are top 10 in takeaways. Moore is much better at taking what the D gives him. DR is a little more loosey goosey with the ball.

I know it is last year but look at Nico’s run performance against Penn State. Contain that and we simply out man UCLA everywhere. UCLA will play hard but we would have to be out schemed. We could just about play man in the secondary, spy on Nico and crowd the LOS and blow them out. Our offense should be able grind them down as well. Chesney is a better coach than his talent.

I put both corners and Finney on an island, I have full confidence those 3 can play Man most of the game. Spy Nico with a safety or LB and load the box. get them behind the sticks on 1st and 2nd down and UCLA is done. Oregon was vulnerable the first 2 games. Lanning got embarrassed with the tells. I think Oregon is pissed, and they will be every game from here on out. I see a big win for Oregon. Low 40's Ducks Low 20's UCLA

This game should be easy for OBD's......... Chances are it won't be easy. Why? Because you don't know which Duck defense will show up. Chesney has plenty of film on the Duck Defense tendencies and glaring weaknesses. The Bruins will game plan to take advantage of those weaknesses. The Bruins opponents so far are 8 and 12 for the season. They have not been challenged. OBD's opponents are 12 and 7 and the 3 ranked opponents gave the Ducks all they could handle. I expect the Ducks to win and it should be a high scoring game. All of the Duck's Offensive skilled position starters have the talent to play on Sundays! Have the Bruins faced a team with that much talent? Not even close. The problem is that the Ducks are working to play up tp their potential. If they do, then this will be a 59-27 Duck win...... If not the Ducks will be in a rock fight. More like 38-35. Go Ducks.....

Good on you for seeing it that way. I don't think it will be quite that easy.....
