So, the fanbase isn't completely fucked up.whatshouldicareabout said:
If this is the opposite of The Pick, I'd gladly rewatch this game on HuskyTron at every home gameAZDuck said:After the inevitable failure of the Oregon offense under Jeff Lockie, I literally grabbed the leash and went for a walk with my daWg along the lake to get some perspective.
Mentioned something in the game thread (during the 2nd Q after VA went down but apres le deluge) that I have seen this before.
Spent my childhood in SE Texas as a fan of the erstwhile Houston Oilers (fuck you, Bud Adams, rot in hell) and I watched the game against Buffalo where Houston gave up a 31-point lead to let Buffalo win in OT.
That has now happened twice to me as a fan, of two different teams in two totally different leagues and parts of the country. Owen12 might be preferable.
Best comment on 247 was this: "You just witnessed the opposite of The Pick. This loss could be the end of Oregon football as we have gotten used to if things are not handled properly, and difficult decisions are not made."
More rumint on that bored to the effect that the AD, Uncle Phil, and Helfrich had a little pow-wow after the game.
We'll see.
Disagree. -
You doogs are all correct. Oregon will be lucky to win 4 games next year

Might as well cancel the program.

A fool? It was the Alamo Bowl. Just as nobody would have cared if Oregon won if, nobody cares that Oregon lost it or how.HuskyInAZ said:
Contrarian? More like a fool. Biggest meltdown in bowel history, played early enough that everyone could watch ... not good.IPukeOregonGrellow said:Maybe it's because I'm a contrarian in nature, but that one didn't hurt. It would've had it been a Rose Bowl or a Fiesta Bowl. But no one is going to remember the 2016 Alamo Freeze Bowl Winner 10 years from now.
Right now, I'm more curious about what Phuckup can do. No one is going to be VAJ when it comes to the deep ball. But a better running QB coupled with Freeman and a healthy Tyner along with an even weaker Pac 12 isn't a bad consolation prize. Assuming someone learns to snap the ball.
Next year, you'll again have loads of talent and experience at the skill positions, but you lose 3 OL starters and 6/7 of the front 7 on defense. All hat, no cowboy?
And hanging that hat on a "better running QB" who has yet to play in a FBS game shows just how much Kool-aid you have chugged. He may very well be as effective as VAJ, but I doubt it. Then again, he may get blown up early in the year and you'll be riding the Lockie train again.
Improved next year?salemcoog said:
This just in.....IPukeOregonGrellow said:I wouldn't say it that way. I'd sum it up that Oregon has five players on its current roster who will be drafted in the first five rounds of the NFL draft, two of whom are seniors, two are true sophmores and one of them is Carrington who could stay or go. It's not going to take much to find the next Tyson Coleman or Matt Pierson. And that's the reason why people who say Oregon (or Stanford) is about to fall off a cliff are generally wrong about it.
Going from the Natty to 9-4 with no plan at QB is falling off of a cliff considering that all of your division foes look to be improved next year.
What are they going to do? Shock the world and win 8 games? -
As usual, the doogs focus on Oregon getting the hammer or just sucking rather than UW actually getting good.AZDuck said:You doogs are all correct. Oregon will be lucky to win 4 games next year
Fucking losers. -
LOL Oregon got embarrassed in the Alamo Bowl
-
@AZDuck: Shit man, that sounds overly optimistic. Good athlete, but kid's never played against a Pac12 team and pass defense in the Big Sky is almost non-existent. Big, big adjustments ahead for that kid.AZDuck said:Prukop is a better fit for Oregon's offensive style than Adams is. I think that he's going to be a good one, and Nicky Satan agrees with me. The backfield and WRs remain in place. Give Helfrich his due, offensive production has been good as long as the QB isn't Jeff Lockie. Hopefully the staff will have a better Plan B in case Prukop gets hurt.

Doogs are always harder on UO than they are on UW.
UW gets 15 or 20 years to go 6-3. But whOregon SUCKS!!!### -
Go back 12 months and read what this bored had to say about Adams - same shit, different yearTurdBuffer said:

It's what keeps me coming back to Hardcore Husky.PurpleJ said:I love it when AZDuck wants to kill himself following an Oregon loss.

I recall a mix of opinions. Adams tore up UW when he was at EWU with what looked like a lot of "lucky" plays. I think most in here actually understood that the potential was there for him to be a real difference maker at Oregon. He's clutch, but also smurf, so the possibility of seeing him out for injury playing at this level was justifiably pointed out, and you are on a Husky board, so expect some trolling.AZDuck said:

Personally, I think Montana VAJ has the potential to be even more dangerous than VAJ v1.0. He's bigger and runs the ball much better, which is the secret sauce for that uptempo zone read spread option crapola the ducks like so much. It works very well with a guy like Pharump, especially with a backfield like the current one at Organ. The PAC is soft as hell right now, and the only truly physical team in the conference is replacing a boat load of players. I think Organ has a very good chance of winning the conference next year with Montana VAJ, even without a defense. UCLA has pulled that off when the conference was down, as have prior Organ teams. But, as always the correct answer is LIFPO. Still, I like the yucks chances next year .. until Montana VAJ tears an ACL and Jack Locknie takes over ... haha. -
Seeing as how Adams fragile nature led to 4 losses I'd say we were spot on

The same way that Peyton Bender was a better fit for the Pirate's offense?AZDuck said:Prukop is a better fit for Oregon's offensive style than Adams is.

I hate the offseason. -
@AZDuck: By that time, we'd already seen what Adams could do in Husky Stadium. 31 of 46, 475 yards, 7 TDs. If people were saying the same shit, they were dumb fucks.
@Southerndawg: Luck cannot explain those numbers. Adams tore us apart threading the needle and throwing darts. Sure, our pass defense was shitty that day, but the luck was all UW's in that EWU played Big Sky D, allowing Miles to have a banner day too.
Point is that UO can't shouldn't expect another VAJ, cause that's not what they're getting. -
That's why I put lucky in quotes. It wasn't luck, just a great game by VAJ and his receivers.TurdBuffer said:@AZDuck: By that time, we'd already seen what Adams could do in Husky Stadium. 31 of 46, 475 yards, 7 TDs. If people were saying the same shit, they were dumb fucks.

Did you guys know cody pickett is faster than tui? 2003 is going to be special

Carrington should go to the NFL. He could be picked in the 4th or 5th round....maybe even as high the 3rd if someone falls in love with him.

Wait, so everyone thinks VAJ is good now?
Or is this like a Sark is better than Ty kind of good?
Cuz that dude fucking sucks.

I'd be fine with the Hooks taking him in the fourth or fifth round. He can play. -

He was injury prone in college. No way he lasts in the NFL.
Why would the Hooks waste a pick on him? -
Thoughts on the Oregon QB topic.
1. VAJ looks like a CFL player to me, in fact someone who could be very good in the CFL. He is too fragile for the NFL.
2. I watched Prokunt's film (HUDL), he is decent. He looks like he can run around a bit. I wasn't sold on his arm, it looks a little weak. There is also one glaring difference between Prokunt and VAJ:
VAJ went 28-6 as a starter at EWU, plus 7-2 at Orygun. That is 35-8 as a starter... a winning percentage of 81%
Prokunt was 20-16 at Montana State. A winning percentage of 55%.
VAJ is a winner, Prokunt is Jake Locker.
