Oregon never posted the video from Lanning's presser that I saw and I have not been able to download it from the dropbox, but Aaron Heisen covered it for us and had the key takeaways:

He's getting crystal balls. Also, he's listed at 240 already. If he has speed and it's good weight, he could be even more massive in a couple years.

Latest update on high four-star offensive lineman Eddy Pierre-Louis from John Garcia now that the 2024 prospect has a top five. The Ducks remain as the lone team out West in the mix.

"Never had tortillas and water bottles thrown at him before...". Pretty funny.

We got our first two positive scores of the season, which is trick to do, as demonstrated by the rest of our scores. Wingman continues to be a source of worry for those of us who want to show up on tp as he divined a -1, followed closely by Adam with a -2 and Sharkie and Scott with -3's. But the champ this week is Grayduck with a +8 who surpassed the Rock' +1. (somebody scream at me if I got this wrong). Nobody got the spread right but Scott. Corey and Grayduck came closest.

Grayduck +8
Corey +1
Winger -1
Adam -2
Sharkie -3
Scott -3
10Duck -8
Rock -9
Fish -10
Quack -12
100% -13
Grave - 19
ME -29

I leave for NJ for a week but I'll make threads for the next two games before then. Results will have to wait unitl I am back. Somebody will have dig up the second game from past posts to make it available that week

Congrats, Grayduck

Seems to relish it. New $80m contract to boot.

....is realizing we don't have to listen to Gus Johnson do our game later tonight.

.....GameDay will be in Eugene in week 4.

Only three losses, one in OT and none a blowout, so far and next week has a chance to keep it going. That along with the bevy of possible 1st round QB's would really make for a great next season after this one if the next page didn't say "THE END"

Here's Aaron's latest piece looking ahead to today's matchup in Lubbock where the Ducks will look to build off their dominant Week 1 win.

Hopefully it kicks off with a CU victory over Nebr. Utah over Baylor would be cool. Stanford over SC? WSU over Wisc? All that would be nice, but seems a long shot to say the least. Not a whole lot of other big games, although you never know what's gonna happen when APP St visits UNC.
Let the games begin.

Please do not blackout during the Oregon game!

They are expecting a freak storm today.
The good news is that I have my cell phone and can watch it that way should I get blackout

I'll start with 59-13 but won't be surprised if it is bigger with two "tempo" teams going at it.

For the Oregon Rivals gurus at the game, are there any starters not suited up for the game?

Scott and Brandon set the stage for the big road test today:

7’’1” high jumper Osawese Agbonkonkon out of Frisco, TX will be attending UO and competing this year.

Really can't see everyone remaining unbeaten, even aside from the trojan tree game. Who are going to be the losers? Both Arizonas and Cal make my list. WSU should be there but they seem to play big 10 schools well and are home with a chip on their shoulder. Speaking of Chip, the Bruins may fall to SDSU, I'm not a Buff believer yet but I'd like to see them remain unbeaten until they play the Ducks. I'm even less a believer in Nebraska. It wouldn't break my heart to see the tree topple USC but .... shouldn't happen. Utah will be facing Baylor in the same kind of heat greeting Oregon.

I’ve seen this person on televised games. I can’t imagine wearing something that in anyway blocks another fan’s view.

Here is Jacob Hamre's review of notable topics discussed by the Ducks this week ahead of their matchup with Texas Tech that will pit them against a familiar face on the Red Raiders' side. Lots of good stuff here from Jacob.

He did not play last week. Scott made no mention of him in his article today regarding defensive regulars who missed last week. He was front and center in all the preseason talk about the secondary (his teaming with Tysheem Johnson at safety). What's up?
