    First thing, and I hated it at GA, he passively aggressively smiles too much. And says, “right!”


    Makes my stomach turn.

    Now. On to yer video and review…

    1: Lanning is a young coach

    2: DeBoer outcoached him. Again.

    3: Nix is what he has been. Great against lesser defenses, not too good against GA or Bama types.

    4: Lanning has a few steps to go to get to Kirby or Saban standards

    5: Be glad he’s out

    6: He’s young. Recruit and be passionate.

    7: saw some saying he would be the next coach at Bama once Saban retires. No way.

    He gets another year from me, no problem.

    Completely bizarre season. Lost 2 games by a total of 6 points (to one team), won the rest by about 300.

    You can see player improvement under this staff unlike under the last 3 guys.

    Seaver is holding on Lanning.

    Lanning is a good coach who assembled a staff of amazing recruiters though they probably aren't the best position coaches.

    Oregon's schedule wasn't very difficult as their non-conference schedule was headlined by Texas Tech (come from behind win against them too) and they caught Utah and Oregon State at their worst moments (Utah reeling from peak injuries and Oregon State coming off a very difficult loss to UW, missing two OL starters, and finding out about Smith leaving before the game so it was a funeral for them).
    That’s a lot of moral losses, by 4 touchdowns.

    The above is no different than any other season as teams play out the schedule. I honestly don’t have any interest in the comic book writing that some of you do.

    You are shooting the messenger. You said it was a bizarre season and I pointed out why it wasn't that bizarre when analyzed properly. Another aspect is that Oregon missed Arizona on the schedule and they proved to be the 3rd best team in the conference. If Arizona and Oregon had played, Arizona would have had a decent shot of winning (2 of their 3 losses were in OT and their 3rd loss was to UW by 7 at home).

    You’re just cherry picking odds and ends to suit the comic book narrative.

    This was no different than any other college football season in the way injuries and mythical letdowns happen.

    Guess we'll agree to disagree. @haie also pointed out how things fell favorably for Oregon in not getting Arizona (along with getting USC and Oregon State at opportune moments).

    The USC-Utah-Beav stretch where they were ALL elimination games for them, plus the most greased up Coug Apple Cup of all time was the hardest test any team in this conference faced.

    Not to mention they got Arizona and Oregon back to back, and the bye week meant nothing because Oregon got one too.

    I will admit this meant a lot because of what Oregon has done

    Sure it's fun to talk shit but beating them twice this year is an accomplishment

    And it's been a bizarre year for Washington in a lot of ways

    They avoided every usual landmine and look like they're ready to compete this time in the playoffs

    Stranger year for Washington than Oregon I’d say.

    Kind of reminds me of 2001 Oregon who had a ton of close calls but had the underlying grit to get it done. But did hit one landmine.

    our OL can probably hold up against anyone (@firehuff). That is all we need, with our WR room back and healthy. We should put up points on anyone

    They are a better team than they were under Cristobal (sorry @creepycoug ) except for against UW which is an oddity quite honestly
    3-0, tanned, certainly not rested, but soon ready to go!

    vs.

    0-3, not tanned, certainly not rested, but soon ready to go!

    Rose Bowl vs. Holiday Bowl

    You? guys can't decided if it's winners win or these torturous "you got to play this team after a three-day weekend and steak and lobster on the flight" posts around here. But I have decided:

    Lanning wins the little ones like Bobby Bowden. Bobby eventually won some big ones

    Mario loses games he shouldn't but won the ones he needed

    Winners do win. Lanning has more. Doesn't mean Mario sucks

    Yep.

    Mario's biggest problem, and singling out just one is hard, is that what he wants to do absolutely is the shit and if you can do it you will win and win a lot and predictably. But having these O Lines that just road grade everybody and run your way to dominance is next to impossible now. With passing as sophisticated as it is, you need to be just so much more dominant that all the D lines out there and it's hard. Even Bama doesn't do it every year because they can't. Great O lines don't grow on trees. Running backs are a dime a dozen. But you need what everyone else wants, and you need a depth of them because they go down.

    We? all want to be Jimmy Johnson's Cowboys dynasty, where the passing game is a nice compliment to an offense that otherwise just runs it up your butter bean and controls the game tempo and keeps your QB on the sideline.

    Saw TVD portaled. May as well. He was broken.

    Seems a bit understated if we're being honest. Lanning isn't even 40 yet and he's built a legitimate juggernaut. It brings unquantifiable joy that we are the one hurdle he can't yet clear, but it's only year two for a guy who is going to be a head coach for decades to come.

    Lanning > Mario coaching wise if you ask me. Not that my opinion matters shit here in Jonestown. Mario is showing his true colors down in south beach. People forget he inherited good players that Helfrich and Willie couldn’t figure out what to do with

    Lol.

    Like Lannding showed up to an empty cupboard. 75% of my Mario takes are sure.gif tongue-in-cheek for your entertainment; but this isn’t your best work.

    What are “true colors” anyway? Was it false colors when he went 3-0 and won a Rosy? Beat Buck? I’ve never understood use of that phrase describing a coach who is not doing well.

    I know, but but but.

    Oregon thrashed Utah at SLC. Utah is not the same without a healthy Cam Rising. Andy Ludwig is a career OC who’s very average.

    Oregon has had zero problem with OSU AT AUTZEN historically (last 30 years). The Beavs have beaten Oregon twice AT AUTZEN since 1993 (1993 and 2007). This year would have been no different.

    Oregon playing at Parker/Reser is a different story.
