    Listening to your coaches on Portland radio, they don't seem confident. Why?

    It’s called coach speak
    Remember? Those Cristo interviews on Portland radio, where it's all Oregon State alumni (lolz), that trouble you so much? It's that: poor mouthing. Only coach I've ever seen who had the ballz to deliver it straigth w/ no bullshit was Steve Superior, who was a confident mother fucker. Everybody else plays it the same way.

    Why? Does Pete sound confident?

    This should be a close game unless one side just goes retard, which can happen. Herbert will have to find a new favorite receiver this week or they are toast. I don't think they have the running back talent yet to run their way to a win, even though they have the line for it.
    I expect to see a lot of Mycah Pittman
    I'll raise you a Puka

    Oregon should run it 45 times but they won't
    They might if Verdell could get through a game w/out getting hurt. He's really the only guy on their roster who runs inside with power other than the Hibibi guy, who I assume is strictly short yardage for a reason.

    I don't think it's lost on that coaching staff that their passing game is, at best, inconsistent. And I'm sure they know who they lost at TE. I think they do what they do because they have to.
    Habibi-likio is slow, but I think he’s our(?) best rb. Definitely better than dye. Based on last weeks usage coaches are finally leaning that way too

    Washington has a chance because Mr. September will play hero ball and throw at least 40 times

    Doubt there’s as many scouts at this one. Will only start chucking it around if they fall behind.

    He had to throw for 42 times to beat Montana
    “Had to”

    Yeah just squeeze by in that one didn’t he?

    He can’t help himself. It’s in his DNA and who he is.


    His draft stock is slipping his Heisman chances are totally gone and now he came back for his senior year to play for maybe a chance in the Sun bowl. He hast to do something on Saturday in front of a natty (SWIDT) audience and it sure as hell won’t be hand the ball off

    Chinned for the Sun Bowl reference.

    Pac-12
    North Division Conf All
    Oregon Ducks (12)
    3-0 5-1
    Stanford Cardinal
    2-2 3-3
    Washington Huskies (25)
    2-2 5-2
    Oregon State Beavers
    1-2 2-4
    California Golden Bears
    1-2 4-2
    Washington State Cougars
    0-3 3-3

    Oregon is a win away from clinching the PAC 12 North.

    Dye is usually good for at least one 20+ yard burst, and maybe two or three 10+ yarders. But then Arroyo tries to use him as an every down back and that's not who he is. The kid runs tough for his size, but he is who he is: a peanut who has elite burst for about 15 yards and then hits top gear. He's never going to shake a tackle or run through contact, and though his first five steps are elite he will get run down by any corner or safety with good wheels.

    Call me crazy, but I don't think it's really up to him. He's calling the plays at the LOS about as often as Eason. We're not talking about Joe Montana here.

    They could still go 4-5

    I’m not going to argue how many passes Guy Herbert is going throw in a game that hasn’t happened yet as I’m not on a message board from 2006. It’s just that you had to go back 4 games and the outlier for the entire season to to come to your useless conclusion. I’ll stick with the teams current trend.

    And like anyone outside of Washington or Oregon is going to watch this fucking gayme.

    And pretty sure in-season performance has a negligible effect on "draft stock". Scouts and GMs know what they want in a QB-a 6'6 guy with a cannon for an arm. Josh Allen went 12th after doing this against a very not good Oregon defense.

    I thought for sure that would have tanked his draft stock.
