If Dan thinks he's the guy, get him here ASAP. Sit him right beside "the OC" during games, let him get acquainted with the players now for retention and recruits for recruiting.

Oregon's slim Big Ten and Playoff hopes may depend on rooting for a rivalRooting for Lincoln Riley isn't fun, as it's far more enjoyable to point and laugh each time the Trojans' season goes sideways, but if it helps the Ducks, it's impossible to root against them. Knowing how USC has fared under Lincoln Riley, the Trojans will likely find a way to beat Indiana, but lose one of the easier games left on their slate just to let everyone down.

The Momentum Swing
I hate to see I injuries to any player that require a cart. I think momentum swung dramatically after Northwestern's starting safety Jon Jon Stevens left the game. His replacement was out of position on multiple plays, buying completely into an RPO when DR hit DKM on the 75 years bomb.

Week 9-10 AP Poll is Out - FWIW My Thoughts on Hold Until the PO Committee Rankings on 11/3
Great take, KK. I was not happy to see 2-loss NW at 26, but happy to see 3-loss OBD at 27. And I was not happy to see 2-loss Ohio State ranked No. 11 and not happy to see 2-loss SC ranked No. 18, but I was happy to see this considering next week's game in Columbus. Week 10 is loaded with great matchups. If ten SEC teams are in the committee's top 25, DUCK! Using the AP Poll, nine SEC teams, 56.25% of the conference, would be in a 24-team PO field; five Big Ten teams.

How can a team be ranked higher than a team they lost to?! Do head-to-head matchups only matter in the playoffs? Why do we bother to play the games each week?!

Honestly where would you even rank the Ducks? Are they the horrible team just begging to lose to Illinois? Are they the team that lit up USC? Are they the team that made Northwestern look bad? Are they the team that looked bad against Northwestern?

Week 9-10 AP Poll is Out - FWIW My Thoughts on Hold Until the PO Committee Rankings on 11/3
OK, a couple of thoughts: No. 18 USC 6-2 is ranked behind five 2-loss SEC teams, behind 2-loss Houston, and 2-loss No. 11 Ohio State, which the Trojans defeated 30-18. 5-3 South Carolina No. 23 and 5-3 Florida No. 25 are ranked. 2-loss Northwestern and 2-loss SMU lost competitive games on the road and are not ranked. Ten SEC teams are ranked. 10! In-conference losses are minimized, and in-conference wins are magnified. Will the PO Committee follow suit? No. 18 and No. 21 Iowa return to the top 25, which they should have not have left. Northwestern, with competitive road losses at No. 6 Indiana and No. 27 Oregon, drops out of the Poll in favor of two 3-loss SEC teams? 🤬🤬🤬

Others Receiving Votes: Northwestern No. 26; Oregon No. 27. Of course, two 3-loss SEC teams, Florida and South Carolina, are ranked. After a bad showing against UNC, Miami remains AP No. 1. I predict the PO Committee will rank Georgia No. 1. Of note yesterday. In the last minute of regulation time, the Minnesota kicker and the Indiana kicker both made 60-yard FGs to send the game into OT. Another close-call win for the Hoosiers with an invigorated USC coming to town on 11/14.

When you think about it, it may have been exactly that! For some reason, I was thinking about the Danny O'Neal led Rose Bowl team thatlost their starting QB to a finger infection... NOBODY expected the untouted second stringer to succeed, yet Tony Graziani proved to be the answer. That team played in the Rose Bowl with 9 wins.- Ever Seen a Quarterback Like Raiola?
It probably didn't hurt that Oregon had only (1) 5 yard penalty vs NW, compared to a season average of 6+, for 54 yards per game.- sUc v. BuckNut
Mayhap the Ducks can be firing on all cylinders next week... I'm fairly positive noone will be actually fired, today!- Surprising Prediction Contest Twist...But Not the Winner!
I am not often this pleased to be proven wrong... Amazing how many people I know jumped right back on the bandwagon after suggesting Lanning's tenure has run it's course! Proud to be one of the groupwho sees things from the view point of the early Autzen years. It's worth looking back to honor those who had the vision and foresight, lo these many seasons ago, to begin building this palace we call home!- sUc v. BuckNut
Ohio State opens as a 6-pt favorite over visiting Ducks. The line has moved to 9-1/2.- Ever Seen a Quarterback Like Raiola?
I believe that is a fair assessment. Below are examples of throwing a receiver open. It is difficult to execute because it requires precision, timing, trust and training (LOTS of training). But this is what it looks like when executed well. https://youtu.be/OHuSOwHA-9Y Here is another example... https://youtu.be/0wDRelNH8kw And here is one that is difficult to execute but displays why timing of the throw matters... https://youtu.be/RQqgcTQ44B0 Again, I agree with you. Raiola's strengths are throwing fade routes and he is more confident throwing to wide open receivers. That last pass of his is his hero ball complex. He was feeling it, so he went for it. It was a good example of an ad lib going well.- Oregon - Ohio St. Pre-game Reports, Interviews, Etc.
