Jestin Jacobs was asked about the eight game stretch without a bye week and gave this answer: "I mean, honestly, you know, it doesn't really register. Like, I didn't know that until you told me that, to be honest"

A look across the country:

A common theme in the questions today focused on the eight week stretch of games – and they were met with a common answer. Brandon Johnson today: “The weeks kind of go like days, move so fast. And, you know, when you're done with one week, you're on to the next," he said.

It is 35-27 at the half

Continuing our look back at the Maryland game, we take a look at the offensive report card today:

LOS ANGELES -- John Robinson, the veteran football coach who enjoyed many years of success at USC and with the Los Angeles Rams, has died. He was 89.
The Rams on Monday confirmed the death of Robinson, a member of the College Football Hall of Fame for his two successful tenures at USC. He died in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, of complications from pneumonia, USC said in a release.
Robinson also became the winningest coach in Rams history during his nine-year tenure with the NFL club. Sean McVay passed Robinson's career victories total only last month.
Robinson is high on the short list of football coaches who enjoyed significant success in both the college and pro ranks, going 104-35-4 at USC and finishing his NFL career 75-68 with the Rams. He was particularly dominant in bowl games, going 8-1 in the postseason at USC and UNLV.
Robinson coached at USC from 1976 to 1982 and again from 1993 to 1997. He never had a losing record at the school, and his Trojans won five conference titles and four Rose Bowls. Running backs Charles White (1979) and Marcus Allen (1981) won the Heisman Trophy while playing in Robinson's relentless rushing offenses.
Robinson moved to the Rams in 1983 and reached the playoffs in six of his first seven seasons, winning four playoff games and advancing to two NFC Championship Games.

Robinson spent six seasons coaching UNLV after his second USC tenure, also serving a stint as the Rebels' athletic director. He was most recently a senior consultant at LSU from 2019 to 2021 during coach Ed Orgeron's tenure.
Robinson was born July 25, 1935, in Chicago, and he grew up in the Bay Area, attending prep school with John Madden and graduating from high school in 1954. He played tight end on Oregon's 1958 Rose Bowl championship team before beginning his coaching career with the Ducks.
Robinson became John McKay's offensive coordinator at USC in 1972, coaching the unbeaten 1972 consensus national championship team and the 1974 team that went 10-1-1. Robinson left the Trojans for one year to join Madden with the Oakland Raiders but returned to USC in 1976 when McKay took over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Robinson coached USC to seven outstanding seasons, winning the Pac-8 or Pac-10 titles and the Rose Bowl in three of his first four years in charge. His 1978 team was named national champions by the UPI coaches' poll, while Bear Bryant's Alabama won the AP title.
Robinson kept winning in 1983 when he moved to the Rams, who played their home games in Anaheim, California. With an offense led by Eric Dickerson, Robinson's teams racked up six playoff appearances and lost to the eventual Super Bowl champions in two conference title games.
Robinson's second tenure at USC included a fourth Rose Bowl victory, but the school dismissed him following the 1997 season.
Robinson then coached UNLV from 1999 to 2004, taking over a program that had lost 16 games in a row. He got the Rebels to only the third bowl appearance in school history in just his second season, but Robinson stepped away after the 2004 season with a 28-42 record at the school. One of his more notable victories was a 23-5 win at No. 14 Wisconsin in 2003.
Robinson spent many years between his coaching jobs in broadcasting on television and radio.
Robinson lived in the beachside town of Encinitas in northern San Diego County.
Robinson is survived by his wife, Beverly, his four children, two stepchildren and 10 grandchildren.
A celebration of Robinson's life will be held following the college football season, in accordance with his wishes.

Good update from @RivalsWardlaw with 2026 four-star OL @zadenkrempin talking Oregon #GoDucks interest

I had fun putting this one together last night. Our Tuesday Take Two today is all about how Oregon's basketball success matters now more than ever, plus on the recruiting trail, it's not about the money:

I think most of us would agree that we didn't see the Ducks play to their standards vs. Maryland.

In a wierd way, I feel like a team going for a championship needs a moment or two during the season where they face adversity and they overcome. A refocusing if you will.

Learning what we have about Lanning and his staff.....I think they know how to turn this performance into a positive.

Forgot to mention all the youtube guys asking every week about Oregon having a let down....haha, this was it maybe.

To all of my fellow vets. Thanks for the big decision you made.

some of the rest of you were not able to after making an attempt. Thanks for that effort as well.

Seeing reports that Vander Ploog flipped. Any confirmation?

Right here:

Looking pretty good. Looks pretty much like our weather right now. So muchfor a late November blizzard.

Good morning #GoDucks fans, today on the DSA Inside Read, a 3-2-1 look back at the win over Maryland and ahead to the Wisconsin game.

As always, the Fifth Quarter is our instant analysis (I actually write this before the Sunday morning article each week to get myself a little more analytical rather than reactionary).

QUAAAACK: Vander Ploog flips to Oregon. We have our exclusive scouting report in our commitment analysis article below:

Right here:

Sorry no thread earlier. Literally just got to our RV spot for tomorrow.

Dominant as expected. Dicks up 57-30 13:30 left. Bittle woth 15; Bamba and Tracey woth 10 each

In an exclusive interview with Duck Sports Authority, Tobi Haastrup shared his remarakale journey this season with our own Lee Wardlaw

I was thinking a lot about how I framed this game in my mind yesterday and how sometimes I miss the bigger picture in the analysis of the minutiae.

Here are this Sunday Morning thoughts:

Boy, whatt a difference a couple of 2 point conversions make. Nobody was able to pick either team's score and a little more surprisingly. nobody hit the spread either. with a 21 point differential, you'd think somebody would have gather those 25 points .. but no one did. The "experts" did well (again) with Scott bringing home the trophy, though he still has that anchor of an OHIO State victory prediction weighing on his season total. I kidded Brandon about his obvious copy-cat pick but He did only beat Ski by a point, Newcomer Ellsmeyer finished in the top 14 so he gets a "well done" . In the Locked-on head to head Oregon's Spencer McLaughlin vanquished Trey Moore from Maryland's version of the blog 88-84, another Duck win. I managed to hold the whole stack on my shoulders this week.


I added in a few off the board guesses which I won't include on the season totals later.
