UCLA Bruins at Oregon Ducks, Oct 11, 2008 7:15 PM PDT
Autzen Stadium
7:27 PT, FSN
Please no black helmets, please no black helmets.
Its time fpr the defense to show us something. If UCLA can move the ball with any consistency, we're worse than I thought.
Fortunately, this isn't SC. There's no way they stop our running game.

Oregon - UCLA game streamed
Hey Ducks,
Every week, I put the stream the UCLA game on my site bruinvideos.com combined with the chat room from the UCLA forums site Bruinville.com. Enjoy the stream or come join the chat if you want to be civil.
Good luck.

Black is a Beaver color
what’s next? Do you want us to wear orange helmets? Purple and gold helmets?
The green helmet is the best in college football. The only reason not to wear it is the storm trooper look.

Defense hasn’t sucked entirely.
Offense is workin’ alright too. Masoli is carrying most of the load. Hopefully JJ can start breaking away.

I'd like to see even more read-option from Masoli
He’s had some success tonight (and some failures) and if he gets good at it he could really be the next ducks QB. Until someone proves he can work that, along with the passing game, we’re without a real QB to take us back into the national polls.

exactly...
I’m loving it, and want to see more!
Papadakis actually made a good point when he said we had been going away from the play in the second quarter.
He made some bad reads, but when he got it right we made some big gains, both with him and with the RBs running the ball.

they seemed tight, too (unforced fumbles, etc) – maybe this will settle them down

it's a great setup for an INT or something

We need to get some turnovers this year, and it’s not going to come against the better teams in the conference, like Cal or ASU.

so much for the black domes and one-piece uniforms. i like the combo though.
is it just me or is the autzen crowd overrated? not too loud, at least from the perspective of a guy watching the game on tv.

unless something has changed from last year
it’s the same as it’s always been. the broadcasters are in a closed booth. Also, the sound teams turn down the on-field mikes when they’re at Autzen. I’ll be sure and give you a report when I go to the Arizona and Stanford games…

TV coverage blocks out crowd noise so you can hear the announcers better. Every time I’ve been at Autzen (once in ‘06, 3x last year) it has been raucous. Plus, even though it’s homecoming, this isn’t that big a game

Curious about our Passing Game
Was UCLA’s passing D really that good, were our receivers not that good, or is Masoli’s vision for finding open receivers not that good?

I got the feeling that Kelly’s plan was to not loose this game, so he told Masoli to make no mistakes throwing the ball and instead, if there is any doubt, just try to get a few yards with his legs. And against UCLA’s D that is good enough
by bradLL99 on Oct 11, 2008 11:40 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Receivers dropped a bunch of passes and Masoli's accuracy was poor = 47 yards passing
