I think the talent on the O line is very high quality imo. They just lack experience. This game saw them grow a ton. Especially post Moore injury. The running game is starting to pop and zero sacks surrendured. This team changed yesterday. And the O line is a huge part of that.

So many things to reflect upon after the phenomenal program win last night at the colosseum. Of course the hit on Dante, the poised play of Dylan, continued concerns around the quality of the O-line, and the challenges in playing the style of between the tackles Oregon running that the Ducks like to play. But more than anything I’m so fired up about the Oregon program. I’m so proud to be a Duck, particularly in comparison to the embarrassing culture that was on display on the USC sideline and post game. That Oregon won the portal, getting the very best quarterback in Dylan Riola, a guy who was able to step onto the field during that emotional moment, and meet that moment with poise and power is a testament to the strength of the Oregon program. Their ability to recruit, coach and inspire the team is something we all can be proud of. Lanning is a great leader, evaluator of talent, and onfield was able to demonstrate the passion and the poise that made all of us proud. Yes, there is still some growth around scheme, self-scout, and managing mid-game adjustments. But the shameful culture of USCs program was on full display yesterday. Oregon’s response to the targeting call was to play with passion and incredible poise. I’m sure all the 4* and 5* star recruits saw everything we saw. We will continue to own CA recruiting, and Oregon is the premier program of the west. We may or may not make the playoffs or win the natty with this ‘26 team. But I still have confidence this team can continue to win with this deep roster while not needing to rush Dante back into the huddle before his body is ready. Proud of Lanning, proud of the Ducks program!

It is not just college football....it is the current culture we now live in...of what humanity has become. I thought having a "Safe" place to post would end up with ten-times the number of OBD members we currently have...and don't. Why? Because most people do NOT want to be polite to each other; they want to write what they want to write--when they want to write it. We have lost great members who would email me and tell them how much they loved the rationality of the forum. That is, until he/she broke a rule. Then I was supposed to ignore it, as the rules applied to everyone else, but not them! Even now...I have asked everyone UMPTEEEN times to please place caps in their titles.....to tell us in their title what the post is about? To please put vertical paragraph-like spacing after every three sentences so that everyone can read the posts easily. But most ignore me. And when I email them or phone them to please reciprocate the same courtesy that others extend to them...what do they do? They quit posting. I lose no matter what, so I end up correcting posts every single day...and never say anything to anyone because I am the bad guy when I do. All I want are titles and posts that are easy for everyone to understand and read. But they view the problem as "yours-truly," and not them, thus what I ask for is ignored. I even had to make corrections in this thread, so yeah....people are not as nice and courteous as they used to be. I know all about it.

Makes me sick. I don't want to lose my love for College football. I also don't want to support an organization that turns a blind eye to the behavior we saw yesterday across the sport

And there was supposed to be greater focus on unsportsmanlike actions this season. At least based on the rules changes where they said they would be focusing more on unsportsmanlike behavior. But I suppose that's optional.

I am thoroughly disgusted with the antics on the field yesterday in college football. We are all well informed about the Moore situation. Added to the disgusting play and celebration were the fans in the stands fighting and the clash between sUc players clashing with Oregon players in the tunnel after the game. We had punches thrown in the Bama v South Carolina game with no flag thrown Sacs celebrated with mimicking machine gun fire and urinating on the player. This is getting out of hand and people will/are getting seriously hurt. This needs to stop now.

I feel better! I expected to win.. But sure feel better now seeing our improvement in second half. Go Ducks. Get healthy during bye week and study film. I feel better also this morning knowing that Dante is ok and that Raiola is as good as hoped for.

Praying for a speedy recovery for Dante!!

This coach is despicable. Dan Lanning wouldn't have stand for it! Lincoln Riley explains why Desman Stephens was on USC sideline after ejection for hit on Dante MooreLincoln Riley answered many questions on Saturday night after USC lost to Oregon, 41-27. While the result was bad, the biggest talking point was Desman Stephens’ hit on Oregon star quarterback Dante Moore, which knocked him out of the game and sent him to the hospital. Stephens was ejected on the play, but he stayed on the sideline for the remainder of the game. After the game, Riley was asked why Stephens stayed on the sideline throughout the rest of the game. “Why,” Riley said. “Because he’s on our football team.” Saturday TraditionLincoln Riley explains why Desman Stephens was on USC sid...Lincoln Riley answered many questions on Saturday, with the main one being why Desman Stephens stayed on the sideline after being ejected.

I am very thankful no further damage was inflicted upon this wonderful young man. Our prayers are with you Dante! 🙏 Major update on the star Oregon QB after a scary moment on Saturday nightOregon star quarterback Dante Moore suffered a concussion on Saturday against USC, sources tell CBS Sports. Moore, per sources, is believed to have avoided any further injury outside of the concussion. He will go through concussion protocol and there is no immediate timeline for his return. Moore left the game in the second quarter of Oregon's 41-27 win over USC after suffering a terrifying hit, which led to the ejection of Trojans linebacker Desman Stephens. The game was stopped for several minutes after Moore's injury. He was carted off the field, put in an ambulance and taken to a local hospital. After the game, Oregon head coach Dan Lanning provided this update on Moore. "He's in recovery, so I don't want to speak too soon, but he's moving; he has the ability to move," Oregon coach Dan Lanning said after the game. "So, we'll continue to assess him, but I don't want to speak too soon, but he's moving." https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/dante-moore-injury-qb-concussion-usc-return-season/

My son said " Riley must have taken the Mario Cristobal School of Clock Management".

I was really impressed with Maiava (Until the last drive), he made some NFL caliber throws; tight windows where only his guy could catch it. Ducks held them to 14 pts under their average. Now on the last drive, they looked lost. Like someone said, "they looked liked they had never practiced a 2 minute drill". I hate to say this but I am now going to root for USC, the more they win the better we look (This also goes with the surprising OSU cowboys).

It does. It is labeled with a "D" and he can't find it, or it is broken! I saw a great quote. "Did SC get the old Gary Patterson or an old Gary Patterson?"

Charles, I'm assuming you're booing whom ever picked Coors Light over an Oregon IPA!

Maybe Riley didn't want to be late to the Chris Brown show.

Lincoln Riley is compleat trash. He has surpassed Kiffen as the most hated coach in college football. Absolute dirt bag.

Seeing the Herskies coug it was just icing on the cake! What a pleasant surprise.

Next road loss, SUC should leave Riley on the tarmac. I kept asking my youngest(who went to UO) why they weren't stopping the clock. It sure looks like the Riley hire isn't showing a good return on their investment...

It’s SUC…they don’t need to practice a two minute offense. The players were clueless about how much time was on the clock. That should be embarrassing to the entire coaching staff.

Cardale Jones was drafted in the fourth round, the 139th player off the board. He also led 4-seed Ohio State to a victory over No. 1 seed Alabama in the Sugar Bowl. 48 players on the Buckeyes 2014 roster went on to the NFL. One of CFB's best rosters ever.

Im very happy with yesterdays win and just want to take it one game at a time. What happens at the end of the season will be what it will be.

Two-thirds of the season remains to be played. Keep on quacking and improving. Before Urban Meyer won a title, Ohio State lost at home to VA Tech. Before Ryan Day's team won four straight games to win a title, Ohio State lost two games, including a loss in Autzen and a bad loss to Michigan. Keep improving and get hot at the right time?

Good call! Upon further review, the Irish won 11 straight, and UCLA won 8 straight. Post corrected. Thanks to you and others for the correction.

Uhh, Ducks lost a national championship game to a Buckeye team starting its third-string QB.
