I will drink coffee in the a.m. post some takes here. Probably go troll some fusky fans. Watch some football Troll my brother lightly. He is a die hard fusky. Followed his crappy team into every Pac-12 stadium. Then I am going to watch every minute of the Duck game stone cold sober. My dog will go hide in another room like every week. I am compleatly jacked up already. I love these feelings these big games give. It's the climax of every week. I live to watch football.

This is a question absent from the conversation many so called "experts" are having. Oregon is just as capable of boat racing Fusky and UW is Ducks. Maybe more capable. Az was giving Husky fits on both sides of the ball. And as a result, Husky was starting to lose composure. Even with the lead I don't know that Husky, mentally, can play from behind. If Oregon gets up I think fusky could break down. If that happens, better keep your head cuz husky will play some dirty pool

C'mon DJ-PP. The edit button works pretty good

I agree, Evan Williams is my dude. I love the way he plays. It's obvious he loves the game and is having a blast. He also has a chip on his shoulder with his brother getting lit up last year. Oregons LB group is also pretty quick. It will be interesting to see how Jestin Jacobs adapts to the game with so much time down. Oregon has a lot of options with many high IQ fast players. I am sitting here, broke down in the brush waiting on parts. This thread has me super jacked. Cant wait. Less than 28 hrs till kick off.

Another match up to look out for, much like the Taki/Popo v. Brailsford matchup, is Conerly Jr v. Trice/ZTF. Conerly is only a true sophomore. What is he 19? Trice and ZTF are what? 22-23 yo Dudes that have been in a college weight room for awhile. JC is a talent for sure. But he is young. I think Josh holds his own but probably gets schooled a few times. Going to be interesting how this one plays out. I am sure Fusky brings the heat with blitze pkg to Conerlys side of the ball. Try and get his head swimming a bit. Get him making mental mistakes. The pre-snap mistakes JC was prone to have got to be fixed. Watch the holding as well, Debore is going to prime the refs before KO for sure. Tuli is a pretty good player too. I think Ducks interior is 🔥. So I think Oregon wins most of those battles. They can't sleep on Tuli or Nix will be on his back. Pretty sure the potential damage done by Fusky talented front will be minimized and schemed. Going to be some great matchups for sure. There is a reason beyond Penix and 3 receivers as to why UW is #6

I agree, but it won't take much. I don't think Nix needs to use this legs right out of the gate. Kinda wait and see what the D is giving them thing. I think they spy Nix. That will take away a defender and open up the rpo a bit. But even a couple designed runs for Nix will put fusky D on their heels. I also think Stein needs to give the decision to run entirely to Nix. Husky has shown they are willing to submarine Nix lower body. He has to stay out of harms way imo. There is a lot of football left after this one Oregon's offense is good enough to score at will v. Fusky D. I don't think Ducks need to get cute. Just run the offense and trust your D to come up big a couple times.

KJ is going to have to play on an island all game. I agree, I think he is very capable. Kind of a sleeper is o-line, tackle on both sides. But especially JC. His play will be a huge factor in this game. Looking for him to be the silent assassin.

I think most of the Duck fans are sitting endzone to the right of the Duck bench. Hope that helps.

Ducks 45-35 1 3 328

Oregon is playing one of the biggest conference games played in years. Ranks up there with the UO/osu for the rosebowl in 2009. I was thinking about this Oregon team today and what it will take to pull off a victory on Mont Lake. Got me thinking about who might come up big and leave us with great memories of this game. Defensively I think Evan Williams is going to have a monster game. Lead the team in tackles, get atleast 1 sack and come up with a sneaky pick. I think Williams has something to prove to his old coach. Offensively I am looking at Jordan James. 110ish+ rushing yards and 2 scores. I do think Bucky eclipses James in all purpose yards but James production with Noah out will be a game changing stat line. What do you guys think about who could put up a game altering performance and seal a victory for OBD?

This will not be a clean game imo. There will ne some dirty play and it's most likely to get chippy. Oregon needs to keep cool. But a man can only take so much. Hopefully Lanning can keep his guys to understand that.

Here is a text exchange between my brother (fusky fan) and I.

I have listened to a lot of Husky podcasts this week. Coupled to these comments, I would say that Fusky fan is pretty ignorant about the team in Eugene.

All well and good, but when asked, he lied. If someone lies to me I am done. It's Just the way I am.

Ducks recruit all over the nation. Pulling guys from Texas, Florida, Alabama... Less games in LA shouldn't be an issue. Media today covers just about any team you want to watch. If anything, joining the B1G expands Oregons footprint from LA to NYC. Less and less, recruiting comes down to location. It's a much smaller world than the stone age of 1985. "Say what you want about Mario coaching...". I am sure Mariø will give us plenty of opportunity in the future. MC was shady in the way he left Oregon. Many of us take great joy in mocking his enormous blunders.

Bassa is a beast, stacked! Love the uni. Let's get it on!

IMO if possible, send the defense out first and smash Fusky in the mouth. Ornery and mean. Continue it till the last play of the game. Leave them battered and bruised and make a statement to the Pac that this will be different than what they have been used to. Leave no doubt that if you choose to challenge the Ducks you will pay a heavy price. Offensively, just go do your thing. Your really good and well coached. You have some of the best skill players in college football and an O line that might be better than last year. I am feeling more aggressive the closer we get to this game. Compleatly jacked for this deal to go down.

I like it when Dans salty. Rubs off on the team and makes the team salty. I want Oregon to play with a nastiness to them. After this Saturday, the rest of the teams on Duck schedule need to fear the Ducks.

I found this interesting. I don't understand some of it. Maybe some of you guys do and find it interesting to discuss.

Gonzaga has more value to the B12 than WSU and OSU? Clearly only Pac fans find value in these schools. The rest of the country seems to care less. I guess OSU should have built value in the program instead of whinning about Uncle Phil and Oregon over the years. Oh well, it's Beavus problem.

I heard people are hired to hold the sign. Duck fan or not. I hope ther are 50 Bo signs in Seattle.

Tim Tebow won a Heisman with 4 losses. I don't think going 13-0 would get Nix the trophy. Like said above, I don't know that it matters to Bo. Caleb Williams or Penix will probably win it even with multiple losses. I for one am fine with that. Nix, in my view, is a better all around QB and Oregon is a better program.

Do student athletes lose access to scholarship availability once athletic eligibility has expired? If so, maybe extending the scholarship availability up to a doctorate would be made available. A time after athletics to really focus on education

"Oregon is ruthlessly efficient on offense, and that is in large part due to Nix’s ability to run the offense. It isn’t flashy, but it is effective. Nix’s best hope to win the Heisman will come in continuing to do what he is doing: operate the offense and win games." IMO, this is what makes Nix the best player in college football. His ability to manage a game from "the booth". His football IQ is incredibly high. Nix is a second offensive coordinator sitting in the QB position. That is a dangerous man for opposing defenses. Nix can make all the throws. He can run the ball like a second running back option on the field. But what makes Nix special is cerebral. Nix will be the best player on the field this Saturday, every Saturday, because he has the biggest football brain in all of college football. Like a lot of this article says. Huge props to the rest of the team. They make it much easier for Nix to manage the games. Lanning has put together one of the best supporting cast around Nix in the country. This is a complete team across the first and second units. Go Ducks!
