If you didn't hang around to hear Lanning's little interview on the field post game....

.....that man KNOWS what he is doing and he will have a title before he's done.

Does Maryland to really lock down running game, their strength on defense and Gabriel gets 400+ yards before sitting out the 4th or do they try to stop the pass and James gets 150+ running? Can't how they stop Oregon's offense since these guys stay focused or have so far, anyway. I think the D can shut down the Terrapin's game with no sustained drives.

But not w/o some controversy.

Once again Scott, you deliver. I have been concerned lately in our teams ability to score in the 3rd quarter specifically, and the 2nd half generally. I have wondered why, and suspected that Lanning is deliberate in all facets of the game, with the length of the season, and the talent at his disposal. You did a great job of clarifying this issue for me. It is clear, that Lanning is working his plan, building depth, limiting reps for players, etc. All, to be fresh as possible down the stretch, and deep as he can be with experienced personnel. In Lanning I trust! Go Ducks!

A little barroom talk here.

Who do you think would be better on the current team?

Bo or Dillon?

Miller Moss is having a great year, but it aint gonna matter.

To my eye Holden is our best WR this year. He's got size and speed and is connecting with Gabe's skill set. I have actually been surprised that Tez made it this far w/o injury. He's just not big enough. Stewart is faster and maybe jumps higher, but Holden is the best NFL WR prospect on this team,

Today on the Inside Read mostly looking ahead to Maryland this Saturday with some questions around injuries.

The season opens at the matt tomorrow at 7:30 for you, 10:30 for me. Wish I was saying any time and Mac Court but those days are head down the river, long ago passed under the bridge along so much flotsam from my past. I'll have tp pick up the broadcast from KUGN, unless I figure out how to use B1G+ (which I'll try out) . Otherwise, I'll be following with the help of Alexa. Most of you can probably pick it up directly, not hoping you'll have no WIFI interruptions.

Not that polls mean all that much this early in the season but there are only four team ranked as of now, and none of them in the top 10. Purdue comes the closest at 14 followed by Indiana (17), UCLA (22) and Rutgers (25).

Didn't find a preseason conference ranking to see where Oregon fits into the rest behind those four but I'll look some more later.

I was at the game this past weekend and the players kept on going thumbs down after big plays and at the end of the game. Anyone know what it meant?

First couple of papers I look at seem pretty fixated on the not a TD that became a TD as first articles.

of course they never got to 18 points and it wouldn't have mattered if the had.





There is other stuff if you care enough to subscribe to see them. I don't

Watching a replay to f the game this AM and noticed Dave Iuli suited up. Did not see him in the game though

This is great. Man, the dude is always in the right place, and is he physical?

Third quarter struggles continue to be an issue, but the Ducks still rolled to a comfortable 21 point win.

Here is our Fifth Quarter for the Michigan game. We will have grades later in the week, but this is our first take on the game:

Some Sunday Morning thoughts following the win over Michigan.

Excellent week for many this week Guest picker joined 10Duck in missing the final score by only a point, but saving me the task of going back and figuring out how many points a perfect guess would be. Since no one has done so I'll further save the pain by announcing a perfetco worth a total of 200 points. Seems fair unless there are objections. All of those who nailed either a team score or the spread are the guys who scores this week are above 100, and there are a lot of you. By the way, all those scores above 90 are pretty rare for not getting a direct hit on something. Nice job, guys.

Anybody who thinks I messed up a score, let me know because I probably did if you see an error.

Thanks for sowing up. Hope to you all come back to take a shot at the Mary-had-a-little-land game score guessing game.

In a battle of the beatens, the superiorly academical University of Washington outlasted the Conference Destroying USC Trojans by managing to kick themselves in the nuts just a little bit less.

A highly anticipated rushing of the field by UW students never truly materialized.

Trojan fans wondering why they left the chance to be #2 to Oregon every year in the P12 just to land at 15th in the Big 10.

Let's get this started:

Don't you hate it when one of the "experts" climbs to the top of the hill? Somebody knock him off !!! by the way, congrats Brandon and thanks for knocking me down a notch. Another highlight is the Youtube sim predicting a 17-14 Illinois must have had an anchor in its purse as it did the Atlas thing and holds the rest of the guessing world on its squashed shoulders. I hope they take another shot at calling an Oregon loss if I can find it this week. Must have been a lot of movement this week with all the correct picks of the Oregon score though yet again nobody picked the Illinois score nor the spread. I find the almost amazing especially the spread.

Hoping all of the guys listed above are back again and we find a new face who will like join the fun.

I guess I'll take another wild shot with a 45-10 score for Oregon's second straight win in the big house.

Lanning spoke at length with media following the game. Here is our recap:
