Quack Fix: Ducks suffer embarrassing loss to Beavers, Pete Carroll resigns from USC

I have never liked the seahawks and seeing them die by loyalty to an old over the hill QB as put a smile on my face. There old GM was bad, Pete could set this team ten years in the hole if he fucks up bad. But I think he will just be average for a few years.

but he can say “We’ll give you MONEY for the car.” seriously isn’t an NFL salary just one giant bribe? Petey’s in his element now…watch out NFC west.

if he’s not driving from half court and attempting it

but your general rule applies. They came in like OSU was just going to roll over and die for them. They pretty much got what they deserved.

We still had plenty of chances to win this game. But every time we made a run, TP started taking the dumbest shots imaginable, and OSU responded by either easy laying off turnovers, easy layins because we play Schaftenaar soft in the middle, or ridiculous threes by Haynes. Nothing you can do about the threes, but the layins were inexcusable.

But I found myself screaming at the TV when Oregon was getting abused by Tarver in the 1-3-1. Sure Tarver’s a good player, but it’s not like OSU’s defense is new. It’s the same junk they’ve been running the whole time. I’d also have a hard time believing that Oregon didn’t drill how to beat it. They did have a week to prepare, after all.

This one is on the players, specifically Porter and Armstead. The first thing you have to do to beat the 1-3-1 is beat the point man. Once you do that, you have a decided advantage and alot more lanes to work with. Porter looked like he became frustrated and decided the way he was going to be it was jacking up deep shots, or penetrating and trying to shoot over 7’ guys. If that wasn’t the case, Porter and Armstead tried to play monkey in the middle with Tarver, and Tarver generally won. Like you said, simply flashing a guy to the high post and working from there is an easy way to attack it. Dunnigan should’ve abused their guys down low, too, with the guards attacking the seams and dishing.

All in all it’s something to learn from and might knock them down a peg and teach the team to not underestimate anyone. To blame the loss all on Kent, though, isn’t completely fair. I just find it hard to believe that a coach with a full week to get his team ready didn’t go over these fundamental things for beating the defense.

singler did a few times

I loved cleaning up after the women’s games because there were like four pieces of trash in the entire place.

Men’s games? We had to bring a HazMat team into the bathrooms most nights.

They seem to cover USC more than their own team. That being said, I can understand why given how their basketball team is doing this year

Seriously. I just looked around over there, and they are being incredibly uncivil. Pretty much every front page story is just blatant name calling at USC and Pete Carroll, not insightful analysis by any means.

They have also come to believe that because USC is poised to take a few steps down in the football pecking order, that UCLA is the team to beat in the Pac-10 all of the sudden. Oh well, delusion is always sad to see firsthand.

Umm, what? USC was unstoppable in conference for from 2003-2005, and lost a grand total of one conference game during that time. They didn’t need help in 2006 (When they still won the conference despite blowing their finale to UCLA), nor in 2007, when Oregon had dropped out weeks before. The only time they backed in was in 2008, when Oregon State lost the Civil War to knock them out. They weren’t as dominant in those years, but come on, three titles in a row is an incredible feat. And what’s incredible about this, is that USC dominated in a time of relative parity in college football. The Pac-10 hadn’t had a repeat champion (who won the automatic bid to the Rose Bowl) since Washington in 90-91. Carroll then proceeded to win the conference automatic bid 6 years in a row.

What’s even more crazy that trying to denigrate 7 straight conference titles is to try and denigrate USC’s recruiting prowess under Carroll. No, Southern Cal does not simply sell itself. It sure didn’t under some of their previous coaches. Pete Carroll’s run at USC is one of the all time great recruiting runs in college football history.

Carroll accomplished things in the Pac-10 that will likely never be touched. Calling him overrated is a joke.

Its a local membership discount supermarket, they sponsor A LOT of the UO teams.
