I know, I know, nobody really wants to hear about 'best week of practice' and all of that. Hey, I'm with you guys. It's frustrating, I get it.Fuck. At least JHop knows it's stupid.
But the reality is this, I've heard from an array of sources the energy and the tenacity this week has been perhaps the best this season. Like I said, I get it. It's hard to buy right now. Fool me once, shame on you right?
I'm just relaying what I've heard and like many of you, I'm hoping it shows up on the field this week so I don't have to spend my Saturday night deleting message board posts.
I'll go into this more later this week, but I've actually got Oregon winning this one big. I'm impressed by what Petersen is doing up in Washington but I don't think they have what it takes to beat Oregon yet.
In other news (of "what I'm hearing"), Carrington will play, and Big Play VA should start. Either way, it should be interesting.

Or you know, just go grow some balls and let the negaducks be heard no matter how difficult it is to answer your phone for the day.
Fuck that eunuch.
The entire season rests on Saturday night.

I know a guy who ran his own hobby board for years, and could testify to the destruction trolls can have to a website. You need to ban them early and often.
I would think that most long-time Oregon fans took relative joy in the downturn of UW and are able to recognize similar signs of decline in their program. If the blowout loss at home to a top of the conference contender at Utah wasn't enough to slam everybody back into reality that they are a bottom half of the conference team, the loss at home to lowly Washington State was. Recruiting has been down since Helfrich took over. Player development doesn't seem to be very good. General sloppiness and lack of killer instinct in the program are noticeable. Even as @AZDuck has alluded to, the reality of the situation is starting to hit home.
But the one thing that the Ducks still have to hold their hat onto as a dominant program is their streak against UW. Beating UW means that at minimum their biggest threat to their own rise back towards the top of the division (and considering that Stanford recruits/play so differently than them I do feel like Oregon views UW as the one long-term threat to their throne in the North) is kept below them for another year. It helps them in their recruiting pitches when going head to head against UW. So much of their recent identity is tied into the whole Duckade of Dominance and whatnot.
Should UW beat Oregon, the last of the Oregon façade starts crashing to the ground in a pile of rubble. The downfall isn't a question anymore, it's a question that is instead turned into how far they fall. It's the last shred that they have to hold onto right now that everything will be fine and that this is just a bump in the road.
I do expect that we'll get Oregon's best effort ... we better be prepared to match and exceed it.

"We here at UW scoff at 6 conference titles, two national title games, three Rose Bowls, two Fiesta Bowls, an eleven year blowout run over our rival and just generally being one of the mainstays at the top of the conference over the last twenty years."
GTFO you doog turd. You'd suck Kim's cock for UW or TCU to get to Oregon's level for the next twenty years.
Slingblade in himself is a turd much like Bellotti was. However Bellotti was smart enough to hire good coaches to right the ship. Slingblade is at his 2002. Joey/Mariota is gone, the defensive backs are horrible, and it looks like the end is near. Mediocre Mike had them back to ten wins by 2005. We shall see if Slingblade can right the ship because he isn't getting fired.
