This is an AI answer and maybe not the text of the rule, bit based on this I think that was interference: "Defenders cannot run through the receiver's established path to the dropping ball, even if they manage to avoid direct contact with the player's body."

I've said this over and over and over since the Lanning era..

When are the coaching staff going to figure out how to stop the bleeding from mistakes. Stuff snowballs quickly after mistakes

Again? You have to be kidding me! Don’t throw it sideways on 4th and short. This is unbelievable. Another HS play call there. Wow. 🤯

At this point the Ducks are not a top 10 team.

I swear Mehringer making this harder than it has to be..

3rd and 1 and you don’t run?! 4th and 1 and you don’t run?!?!

Boise State does have the 5th most wins in FBS since 2000.

Ohio State: 286

Alabama: 272

Georgia: 270

Oklahoma: 270

Boise State: 269

Clemson: 252

Oregon: 248

LSU: 247

Poor showing by the OL so far. They shouldn't be having any issues handling the BSU DL. Poor blocking on the outside as well on that 4th and 1.

Jordan Davison is getting yardage, use him!

Throwing backwards against a G6 on 4th and 1? Really shouldn’t have to try to out scheme a G6.

This is a bit embarrassing. C'mon no more 2 yd passes, ok...

If you can't make a short fourth down by ramming it down their throats up the middle, why does Lanning insist on trying fourth downs?

I was shocked they didn't just use Davidson down the middle to get that 1 yard. Is confidence in the OL that low?

Too much getting cute on offense again.

So far we seem entitled, lacking heart, and poorly coached…other than that I like our chances

This team is totally out of control. Poor coaching. Poor play!

The defense is really undisciplined.

LACK of Discipline. Boise looked ready to play...Oregon Does Not!

So fat I have not seen the vaunted, experienced defense that was advertised for months now.

I am already sick and tired of the 2 yd passes. Hire Chip Kelly for OC

Throw the ball down the field

Ducks were unprepaired.

Check down Dante. He seems exactly the same as last year so far….

Let’s go

Big chance here..

Just keep it simple like this: throw the ball vertically!

Needed that!

You know... I'm thinking my 'all-in' prediction of 57-23 might have been "just a bit outside."

Half-time score in 2024: BSU 20-14

Half-time score in 2026: BSU 17-14

Boise is a good, well coached team. Even so, this game should be out of reach by now. Play calling is pretty much HS level so far. I hope it improves quickly, or this season might have Penn State 2025 written all over it.

the dropped return should have been a penalty against Boise.

Not to blame one guy, but the fair catch and muff completely altered this game. I think we’d be up double digits without those two plays.

This is why my game prediction had a far closer score than everyone else! We have never blown Boise State out.

The defense is keeping us in this but their penalties have all been completely avoidable. Drew Mehringer really needs to show me he deserves the OC job!

Hopefully we learn not to schedule these guys moving forward, regardless of the outcome. We’re 1-3 against them and the only win was the year we went undefeated…and we still needed a freaking miracle to beat them.

For whatever reason, learn, adapt, and quit scheduling these guys.

Accept it 😂

I changed uniform for the second half. Cast aside the yellow Oregon Football T-shirt and found a green T with yellow O. Had to go to "Old School". Praying now.

I hope we push the ball down the field and run it down their throats in the second half.

It just shows how much college football needs a CAP on NIL, Boise is hungry and the Ducks appear a little too full.

Aside from rushing being light, the first half stats were perfectly fine.

We only gave up 140 total yards. Dante threw for 163.

Dante Moore is playing fine. 18/23 and 163 yards. Our defense has barely showed up.

Tied up.. Good! We look awful. Win please and go back to practice!!

More better. Now get a stop.

Why does Stewart always fair-catching punts when he could run for 10 yards or more?

Good stop. Let’s go!!

My only hope is that Boise State is actually a Top-5 team in disguise.

Ok, Boise is a good and very respectable football team, but the cobwebs should be shaken off now. It’s time to take control and own this game. Leave no doubt!

GO DUCKS!!!

That’s a TD

My only hope is that Boise State is actually a Top-5 team in disguise.

Excellent edit, and I appreciate how you felt. But on that last drive, DM looked pretty great. His stat line so far looks excellent as well.

Good drive!!!
