I do not feel any group of teams they are able to cobble together will garnish an automatic bid to the playoff with the current (next years) conference arrangement. But, I do feel within a few years (within 10 years) there will be more restructuring of CFB in general. I feel select teams (likely 50-60) from all conferences will be picked for an upper tier league with four divisions/conferences. I could see OSU/WSU being selected for that. There are BAD teams in all conferences that likely would be left out making room for them. Of course this will only happen if OSU/WSU can stay competitive within that timeframe... which is highly questionable.

FSU is acting like they want to boycott the game. In reality they're petrified of being exposed.

LaMichael. My favorite Duck of all time! Well deserved!

That is my point. While fans may have thought there was a competition when Bo came in... there wasn't. The coaches already knew Bo was their man and as close to a sure upgrade as could be expected. I feel this must again be the case if the Ducks take another transfer this year. It must be a clear upgrade. Ty has had two years more experience than when Bo came. If he is not the man. For his own sake he should be guided to the portal. Novosad will be just as good of a back up as Ty was two years ago. I trust DL and staff will make the right decision.

Exactly, and that's why its a problem! If, your going to bring in a high dollar transfer. It NEEDS to be a sure thing. Teams are fighting over good QBs. Those fights consist of collectives spending big money and promises being made to the QB. If not, that QB isn't coming here. The coach has to have input into that decision. My opinion is DL and staff must decide now if they think TT will have the stuff to start next year or not. If not, they have to get someone significantly better than him. Not someone at his level to compete with.

I would say Season Tickets. But, I live in Southern Oregon and do not have to fight the nightmare that is northbound I-5 on Saturday night in the fall. If you live up north... ask for a third package option. One away game at B1G stadium of your choice and one home game of her choice.

Problem is... This is nearly impossible. A good transfer QB is not going to come without hefty NIL and promises. Also, NIL collectives want assurances of that hefty money is being spent on a starting QB not a backup.

David, I to must be a Superfan. I went to bed Friday night with a knot in my stomach. I hoped I would wake up feeling better. I did not. I couldn't watch any games on Saturday and found myself moping around all weekend. I had a business meeting Sunday evening with someone I knew was a Duck fan. He seemed fine. I asked his thoughts on the game. He cavalierly stated it sucks they lost. But, it wasn't going to affect his life. I walked away from that meeting feeling jealous of his maturity... Then went back to moping.

I'm not 100% sure the committee will see it this way. I would not put be shocked to see Texas at three and Alabama as the fourth seed. FSU may get screwed.

I was thinking the same thing. A one loss Pac-12 would not have been selected. That was a worry I had earlier in the week. I'm honestly glad I'm not on that committee. There are going to be some irate fans.

While I appreciate your enthusiasm and love for the Ducks. They did show the replay... and unfortunately, that was the correct call. His arm, and ball, were coming forward before the strip happened. I really wish that wasn't the case.

That's it... I blame Steven A!

Washington well deserved Pac-12 champs. I don't like it. But, they earned it. Hope they represent the Pac-12 well. Man, that's hard to type.

I already feel the need for another beer! Haven't been nervous all week. Now I know how Cam feels facing a 49 yard FG.

Oregon 45-21 1- TO 4- Sacks 398 passing yards

Quitter!

Nice write up Grandpa. You won this jury member over... oh wait, I was considered biased and relieved of my duties.

I'm more worried about the Georgia/Alabama game than the Duck game. I feel our Ducks will take care of the puppies. But, I'm not sure the Dawgs will handle the Tide.

Nice job Grandpa!

Las Vegas baby!

Huge!!! Nice pick!

Need to keep the petal down. Texas winning BIG! Ducks need to as well.

That's a strip.

Winner: Oregon Ducks 63-13 TO: 3 Sacks: 5 Passing Yards: 432 OSU will stop all conversations of future games. The Civil War will have been finally won. The Oregon state flag will have a duck on it from now on.

I was very disappointed when Tyler entered the transfer portal and have been cheering him on ever since. That being said... I do not feel the need for Oregon to use a scholarship on him. There just isn't anything that makes me think he is vastly better than our current options. I'll continue to root for Tyler and will be grateful he honored his commitment to Oregon even when Willie didn't. But, feel it would be a step back for the current Oregon program. Eyes forward. Keep improving 1% each day. Coach Lanning is just getting started.
