“Ohio State, Indiana and UCLA are the Big Ten’s top playoff contenders” is basically the three-headed dragon meme in sentence form. And we all know which one UCLA is.

Oregon is where Penn State was after losing to us last year. If they win out, they're in the playoffs regardless of how bad the loss to UCLA was, but realistically they won't win out.

And those numbers vastly overestimate the quality of his play today. Almost every incompletion wasn’t even within arms reach of receivers. 3 yards in the dirt short, airmailed over everyone’s head.

Dieffenbach missed some throws but he didn’t do anything stupid. Oregon’s defensive line played great today as well. I think even with mid QB play we’re still okay.

33

u/crimsontideftw24 UCLA Bruins • Alabama Crimson Tide 6d ago

You’re right, he was a steady presence and apart from rushing one 3rd down throw I had no qualms. Just not sure he can be a long term answer if we want to win out like we really should at this point. But crow is my favorite meal so we’ll see if it comes to that.

I said after the Oklahoma State game that Lanning should obviously not be fired, but he needed to fire his offensive coordinator. That it needs to be their asses now or it will be his ass down the line. Situation is still the same, fire him now or it will be the death of the Lanning era.

Seeing the defense kind of get it together is reassuring for Oregon

OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE BIG TEN CONFERENCE

Following today’s absolutely DISGUSTING display of football, Oregon and UCLA have been unanimously inducted as HONORARY LIFETIME MEMBERS OF THE BIG TEN WEST.

After years of flashy Pac-12 offenses and Oregon’s 47 uniform combinations, both programs have finally embraced the sacred traditions of punting, offensive incompetence, and making the forward pass look illegal. Kirk Ferentz reportedly shed a single tear and whispered, “They’re ready.”

I feel like this is Dans worst game as a coach. Pulled Raiola 3 drives too late, the 1st quarter 2pt attempt costed us the game. He has to be better

Honestly i hope we tank more games. I want a god damn coming of christ in the staffing room. Why we promoted internally as OREGON when we could have went and more than likely secured a veteran OC and DC is insane to me. NW got Chip Kelly, and you're telling me the best we could do was promote within?!

Now I'll give flowers to the defense and Chris Hampton, things to clean up. But they looked alive and the DL played their hearts out all game.

But Merhinger is a flop. He can't scheme, he can't make adjustments. We left Raiola in way too long and Brock Thomas came in and looked better by a damn runway

Gotta be one of the most embarrassing Oregon games I can remember watching. Absolutely NOTHING happening the entire time. Shot ourselves in the foot with that first 2-point try early on. Raiola looked like a lost puppy. Insane SICK game.

u/DW_Handicapping Oregon Ducks 6d ago

Ok so disclaimer im a Duck fan and Oregon deserved to lose and UCLA was the better team...

 But why did they make a big deal of announcing the ball  would be at the half yard line and then literally put it at the 2 for the conversion? That was bizzare. And then no one said anything more about it?

20

u/Super-Toe6694 6d ago

The two point conversion in college is from the 3 yard line, so the 1 and half yardline is half the distance. It was the correct placement. The announcers didn't correcr themselves. 

34

u/HurricanesnHendrick Miami Hurricanes • Georgia Bulldogs 6d ago

Was it because a 2 pt conversion is an all or nothing play? There is no “from the end of the run”?

Oregon needs to get some Accenture consultants in there and get Lanning to stop the early game gambles.

I’m not ready to call for his ass yet - but the Ducks need to go out on the market and get good coordinators. Dan’s loyalty to his guys is gonna ruin this program.

Gritty win by UCLA.

The final play was a perfect encapsulation of that game. Sloppy, no one knew what they were supposed to do, and just pretty ugly. I'm surprised the refs didn't jump in for a long discussion about something and nothing.

Someone in Oregon’s front office needs to sit Lanning down and tell him to put the 2 point and 4th down plays away and just win games. Oregon would’ve won the title in 2023 if he puts the ego away. Lost them this game too.

It’s cute and quirky when you’re playing bad teams. It’s costing Oregon wins against competent ones.
