There was a lot of stress in Duck nation for sure. That was easily the most boring exciting head scratching game I’ve experienced in my 55 years as a Duck fan.

I believe in Lanning’s process… mostly. First, I have not the remotest idea of why he kept Thomas in the game for three quarters. What on earth was he thinking? He and we are extremely lucky that the Ducks pulled this one out of the fire. The defense was as good as the offense was bad. Is that Lanning’s defensive genius on display? Maybe so. I am a believer that Lanning is one of the nation’s best head coaches. But he’s also young and has made some glaring mistakes. His OC is no better than most in that position at any group of 6 school. He’s worse than many. Oregon has the money and cachet to hire a top notch experienced coordinator. Someone who loves coaching offense and isn’t as driven to move on to head coaching opportunities. Losing our last two offensive coordinators in very short order definitely caused problems. Promoting someone from within made it worse in my opinion. I’m a Lanning believer but keeping Raiola on the bench for so long is troublesome to say the least. The leash on Thomas was far too long. Just my thoughts.

I believe in Lannings process so far. Clearly the defense has done s 180 as he promised. Its hard to really fix the offense without the main piece which is Dante.. Brock has heart, but he is an emergency QB, not a starter. I was scared we were gonna blow that defensive effort we gave. One game at a time

So I have been pretty silent about criticizing the staff as of late. I am not happy with the defense. Despite how well they played. But...they did what was necessary to win. I'll take that. I wanted to show everyone some things about the defense this week-good and bad. And I understand some of the dynamics of what is happening right now. I need to look at the offense like that as well (I just don't have the time). I may wait until the end of the season to go into the kind of detail I have uncovered. I didn't want to stress everyone out this week. We are rightfully all on edge at the moment. We don't need any more stress than the nightmares we are witnessing right now.

Maybe I am alone in thinking the plays on that last drive looked almost identical to the play calling all game. And I really don't care. I am sure OBD will not win playing, looking or coaching like that all year. But if they win ugly for the rest of my life, they win. I know I will age a thousand years, but I will take it. One damn day at a time. We are trying to solve every problem known to this team this very second. It is not going to happen. Tomorrow is another day. And let's be real here. We have not looked like a championship team Lanning's entire tenure. And he still wins a hell of a lot more than he loses.

Great win for the Gators! Golden Archie? And the Golden Texas roster. 😁

I'm stressed too folks. But I am going to stand by Dan Lanning. WARTS AND ALL. I don't like what I see, and I don't care. I am willing to be patient. I know, and I believe all of us know just how difficult it is to win a title. Indiana got incredibly lucky last year. No matter how much fanfare Cignetti gets. If Carson Beck throws that pass five more yards downfield-Mario Cristobal would have been called a pretty damn good coach. Five yards folks. Remember that when you think Lanning has to be the most brilliant coach this planet has ever produced.

BT took care of the ball, but couldn't move the offense. I was happy to see him get the opportunity to start, but he should have been pulled at the half. I would have loved to see Akili Smith get a chance too, but it was great to watch Dylan get the come-back win against his former team. Still scratching my head about the play calling, but thank goodness for this defense. They are giving the team a chance to win.

I think coaching, scheme, and play calling is more to blame than the specific QB for the horrific first halves the last 2 games. And yes there were some brutal throws. After all of this, Dylan offers more and better chance to win for as long as Dante is out.

On the worst day for top-ranked teams since 1936, a win is a good win. Five of the top 10-ranked teams lost. Four ranked teams from the SEC lost: Georgia, Alabama, Texas, and Missouri. Will find out later today if the losses to other SEC teams will be considered to be losses. The defense could carry OBD to the playoffs. This was a better effort on defense than Indiana played against Nebraska. If Ohio State can keep winning with Julian Sayin out for at least three weeks, and OBD keeps winning, a win in Columbus would put Oregon in the top 12.

It looked great in every respect. Something that we expected from the start of the season and started seeing against USC and UCLA. The offensive line looked better. Nebraska is good team. They took Indiana to the wire in their only earlier loss. I almost have the feeling like the one after The Pick, which fueled our 1994 season.

I did post the examples of QBs having good games and then a horrible one, followed by excellent play after that. That written, I wanted Thomas to start. Has it ever occurred though, that a QB had a good game (Riola v USC) followed by a terrible one (UCLA) followed by a good one, and his replacement in his off game looked good but then was ineffective when he replaced the first QB as a starter. If a Duck fan was imprisoned and had to watch most of the game tonight, it would violate the Constitution's prohibition of cruel and unusual punishment. As it turned out, it was a game I will always remember in a positive way.

Offense. It’s offensive. Lol Oregon football for decades had me believing we would get a touchdown on every drive yet today I doubted that we could even get a first down. Still predictable play calling, O—line issues, receivers can’t get open two games in a row. At what point does Drew really need to be stepped aside. And what is with Guys not knowing rules on special teams…coaching errors everywhere.

Oregon football: Dylan Raiola named Ducks Wire Player of the Game

If you beat a team with really good players like Oregon, bama, Georgia, Ohio St, Texas, then you deserve to move up in the rankings.

Oregon Ducks Football vs Nebraska Cornhuskers Recap | Addicted To Quack

It's startling to me that DR was not given the entire first half to see how he could rebound from UCLA. Then it was startling to see the offensive plan was to play not to lose. Then it was startling to me to see BT not get benched to start the 3rd quarter. It's very startling that we won a game by only playing 1 quarter of intentional offense. But man I enjoyed the cage our D made for that squirrelly QB.

I would have put Raiola in after the first two possessions.

If I had to pick . . . NEITHER ☹️

The offense. No question.

The last two games, under 60 yds offense at half-time. The offense.
