When it was 21-3, I so thought it was over -ntrebon
I don't think that too many of us can disagree with Nick. When Stanford took an early 21-3 lead, it did not look good for the Ducks. They were getting outplayed in every phase of the game.
But, the Ducks did not give up. The emotion gave way to focus, and the Ducks started scoring, and eventually started getting stops. And that led to a 49-10 run that put the game away.
After this game, there isn't much doubt that when the Ducks are playing at their peak, they are one of the top teams in the nation. While they may not always play at that level, they are mere second away from playing at that level.
While watching this game, I couldn't help but compare this team to the 2006 Oregon team. The 2006 team may have been more talented (at least offensively), but this team is tougher. They will not give up. They will not let the other team beat them. They will not crumble in the face of adveristy. Darron Thomas will not always be perfect, and we can expect him to make mistakes. But when he does make mistakes, we can expect him to come back and rebound from his mistakes.
And that can be true for this entire team. They made mistakes early, but did not give up. They buckled down, and would not let an inferior opponent beat them.
There were many points of this game we could call the turning point: the gutsy onside kick, the Javes Lewis hit on Owusu, any of Thomas' touchdown passes. But put together, this team has something special. This game was one of the scariest and most entertaining game I've ever witnessed. And at the day, the Ducks turned the tables on Stanford and physically dominated them.
This win tells us a lot about this Oregon team, and should give us a lot of hope for the future. Our team fought hard, and despite adversity, won every play. This is a very good team, and we should enjoy such a great win. GO DUCKS!

The way he ran tonight
No Doubt. He ran hard nosed football and just pounded the defenders. I was impressed when he just ran over a cardinal on the sideline rather than trying to dance.
Quack Quack Bitches.
Dude has 712 yards in 4 games. 8 yards per carry. Even if you include the first game he was suspended, he’s still averaging 142.2 yards per game with a goose egg in game 1. Excluding that game, he’s averaging 178 yards per game. At Tennessee, at ASU, and Stanford at home are 3 of those games, and he only played a half of the other game. And now that DT has shown that he’ll beat you with his feet on the zone read and through the air, things are going to open up even more for LMJ.

Near the end of the game, I told people near me at the bar that he had a “Jacquizz like performance.” And then he broke a huge run. He can do it all. He is playing like a man possessed this year.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
So, it was Jacquizz-like until LMJ broke the huge run?
""Just remember," she said, "I'm holding you responsible for all of this.""
Yes
I remember seeing that. He just lowerd his shoulder and added three more yards on the carry. Pretty impressive when you have three guys trying to tackle you. That guy he pounded was knocked back pretty good. Just awesome!
Not enough praise for the O-line
Those guys did the job today. Opened holes for LMJ, kept guys off Thomas and played solid. Good to see them bounce back after that ASU game. Oh plus, no penalties I believe.

Kelly had such faith in them. After last weeks performance, they really stepped it up.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
Completely agree. There was never a time (after that first false start) where I thought, “Man, the o-line really blew it on that one.” Even the holding penalty, while regrettable, was a head’s up play, since DT was going to get taken down. But there were many times where I thought the o-line dominated the line of scrimmage.
Way to bounce back, guys.
Defending maligned chants since 2009
Although giving up 1500 yds in three games to Tenn, ASU and Stanford is startling ...
… its pretty clear that the offense more than offsets that and Oregon is easily the #3 team in the country if not #2. How epic would an Alabama / Oregon match up be with the running games of both teams on display?
Damn, my eyeball tastes good.
I firmly think
That Oregon should jump to #2. Why? Well there is 3 reasons why.
1) Oregon beat a very good Stanford team ranked #9 by 21
2) I watched the tOSU and Illinois game. tOSU did not look very good. The game could have gone to Illinois, but tOSU added a very late TD to put it away. So not very impressive for them they should drop to #3
3) BSU played who??? NMSST JV team? They should drop to #4 or even lower. Not saying they’re a bad team, but come on…. the Ducks just beat a team in Stanford that BSU would lose big too and they have been the media darling as of late.
I think the Ducks will be at LEAST #3 but should be #2. Just my take.
Funny how you only come over after a win
Rrobably didn’t want to talk about those awesome BYU and Nebraska games. Although, I’m sure that if we came over to UWDP and made any mention of how your defense has struggled, we be treated with a very intelligent conversation and not personal attacks or rose bowl games, right?
Enjoy your win fusky. You’re still a bottom of the Pac team that won’t be making a bowl game.

We also learned today that DT is no slouch keeping the ball on the zone read.
God, he made some nice moves. Absolutely broke one Stanford LB (I think it was Chase Thomas?)’s ankles on one play.
I’ll say it now-I think our offense is better with DT running the helm than the Polynesian Pilferer.

Stanford was the first teams to not respect his running ability. And he made them pay.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
It's not that he's that fast either.
He can accelerate to his top gear quickly, and he’s shifty.
My only complaints with him now are that he tends to force passes in some situations, and he also tries to throw the ball 100 MPH to guys that are 5 yards away sometimes. That is to be expected of a young QB, though.

He can accelerate very well. And yes, he’s quite shift. He made some LBs miss once he got to speed.
As far as his throws, there are a few times he’s thrown too hard, but those are really pretty infrequent. I’m really really imrpessed with Thomas. He’s been pretty amazing for a first year starter.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
Yeah. I guess I'm taking it for granted.
Lots of people were pulling for Costa throughout camp, and were disappointed when he didn’t win the job.
With all due respect to Nate, he seems to be a great guy and a quality leader, I’m so, so glad that Chip decided to give the nod to Darron.

He dropped a big 3rd down pass that was right on his shoulder.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
He got a late break on that one. He had to go up for that one and it hit him in the shoulder because he had only just turned around for it.
Hardly something we can blame either of them for. Just a timing thing.
My yoke is heavy.
It went through both his hands. I think we can blame him for that. If he’s gonna be the best receiver on our team, he needs to catch those.

Excellent point. I too, have been frustrated with Maehl’s drops. But, as Jared alluded to above, it’s because he’s our “best receiver”, so every drop is magnified. The thing that I think a ton of people miss out on is his blocking. We ran so many flare out screens that were successful for DJ Davis and LT; go watch the replay of all of those and see how many times Maehl has a DB dominated. WR blocking is extremely important in our system and Maehl is awesome at it, despite being relatively small.

Was that block in the back on him? They were talking about it on the broadcast (that it was probably someone else), but they never showed a replay. I saw a great cut block on that play, but didn’t see the block in the back.

DT
Did great. He looks so much like Dennis Dixon with out the speed. I can’t help but think that on a couple of his long run plays that if it WAS Dennis, those running plays would have been broken out for TDs. DT had a great fake pitch near the goalline that absolutely stopped the Stanford linebacker in his tracks. Seeing that play on TV was really great too.
I think this team has more talent than 2006
Stewart and Dixon > than LMJ and Thomas, but LMJ is a lot closer than most people give him credit for and Thomas is right there with 2006 Dixon. I’d take just about any other position from the 2010 squad.
Meh, I'll take Byrd over TJ3.

I was thinking about the difference between the recievers/TEs for 2006 and 2007 and I think I've figured out the difference
The 2006 receiving corps may have had more raw talent, this years squad lacks a real “name” guy (e.g. Jaison Williams), and I know I was guilty before the season of thinking “really? Maehl is our best guy?”… but this year’s receiving corps just seems more productive, and the team as a whole seems to reflect that same quality. Stewart vs LMJ is actually another good example.

I really doubt it.
In ’06 after 5 games we were 4-1 and had just been stomped at Cal.

This game could have gone the way of the 2006 Cal game (I was married on that day, fun fact!), but this team has a toughness that team didn’t. That team was incredibly talented, but continually shot itself in the foot, over and over.
What really amazes me is that this team is quite young at so many places, but plays like veterans.

I had to go to the Marine Corps Ball during the Stanford game in 2001. Since I had to be in my dress blues, it was the only game I wasn’t able to wear my Joey jersey that entire year. I still feel to this day like I jinxed it.

I felt the same way last night
My wife went out of town and took my #2 (TJ Ward/Masoli) jersey with her (she’s 5 months pregnant and none of her Oregon gear fits her). I wore another jersey/shirt until it became 21-3. I switched to a yellow t-shirt and as you know, 49-10, good guys after that.

Andrew Luck
is hella good.
and this was a pretty entertaining game until oregon blew it open. the whole stanford team got rattled after owusu got knocked out and the fumble went all the way back to the card’s goal line.
My question: Did Stanford just not want it bad enough?
""Just remember," she said, "I'm holding you responsible for all of this.""
I would say that they did want it as bad as we did, but they simply didn’t have the talent and depth to compete for a whole game when we were focused.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
I actually don't think they did.
Here’s my reasoning: just before that end zone pick, Stanford was down by 2 touchdowns with just over two minutes on the clock (or just under? My head’s still ringing. Anyway, plenty of time), and they were in the red zone. Unlikely that they would pull off the TD, onside, TD, but still possible. However, Luck showed no urgency whatsoever. The clock started running, and it took him at least eight seconds to get the ball into his hands. The guy next to me and I just looked at each other and said “he’s already given up.” Of course, Matt Daddy’s Special Someone put an end to any hope they had anyway, but even if he hadn’t, I don’t know that Luck would’ve made anything happen.

The booing started as soon as he went down. Which would’ve made us total jerks if he’d actually been hurt, but was pretty funny since he wasn’t. When he jogged back in, I thought a couple of guys in the section behind the bench were going to go down on to the field and drag him off. BALLISTIC doesn’t even start to describe them.

For the infamous Oklahoma onside kick the Ozone and the TV broadcast had different angles.
The Ozone angles made it obvious that we did not recover it at the time of the whistle.
The TV broadcast (probably ABC, can’t remember) made it look reasonable that we got it. This is the one the ref reviewed and part of why the colossal fuckup happened. People didn’t talk about this enough.
So I don’t know if they had different angles last night, but I distinctly remember thinking there were definitely different camera crews catching the game, and the ref should have had access to both.

On the TV replay it looks like his hands get under it after he juggles it and before it hits the ground. Whether or not a part of the ball might have touched the ground is up in the air. It definitely could have been a trap, but it should have been ruled inconclusive rather than confirmed.

He’s becoming the type of corner that other coaches are going to game plan to not even throw at. He’s by no means Revis, but he makes so many plays that QBs have to be scared. And now that he’s shown his jumping ability a few times, they know they can’t throw fades on him to expose his biggest weakness (size). So dangerous. We can almost just put him out on an island already and he’s only a true soph.

Meh, Harris still gets beat at times. He's very good at staying in position, which is important.
However, I’d say that putting him on an island still makes me nervous. He fell down and got beat on a play nearing the end of the game that ended up in an incompletion. Boyett had to catch up to it and couldn’t quite get there but we were fortunate enough for it to get caught up and fall short of the receiver.

You know what, it's the small things that I love about Kelly
Last week, ASU was timing their blitzes perfectly based on Thomas putting his hand down for the snap. This week, what’s Kelly do? The first drive he uses a phantom snap call by Thomas putting his hand down and totally takes Furd out of their timed blitzes with it.
Hey Daisy, git me anudder one!

I noticed that, too.
We definitely checked off to the sideline more this game than in previous games. At least it seemed that way to me.
I also loved how Stanford disrespected Thomas keeping the ball on the read the first few plays of the game. I think Thomas taking off added a new wrinkle that — had we not shot ourselves in the foot — would have just kept confusing Stanford’s D…but we had to wait awhile to see that :)
Also…how amazing was that Harris pick in the endzone? I don’t know how he kept his concentration on tracking that ball when he had his own player flying at him to break up the pass.

I noticed Luck threw a lot into double coverage

"Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do" -- John Wooden
I think a lot of it was adjustments Oregon was making
Plus, Luck does that sometimes too, because he doesn’t have a lot of playmakers around him. But, Oregon made adjustments every time they went to the bench to take something away from Luck. The first couple of drives he got his first and second reads, after that he was having to take way too long to find the open guy and usually it was the guy in the flat where out speed was able to get out and stop them.

Almost makes me think he was sandbagging a little at ASU with some other play calling as well.

but it’s pretty close and probably doesn’t matter that much either way
There isn't any real impact on SOS in computers, and voters SHOULD factor them fairly.
But generally, every USC conference loss is good because it bumps up the bowl prospects of teams that can actually go. Unless the boosted team is Washington.
What would be ideal is if some team would lose only to us.
This is more likely to be Arizona, so here’s hoping they carry the torch. But if they start losing, I’m still not going to lose sleep over it just yet.

It reminds me a lot of Pete Carroll’s teams in the mid-2000’s. Teams would expend all their energy trying to get off to a good start against the Trojans, and sometimes they would succeed in keeping it close (I know the Ducks did several times). But then SC would just run them out of the building in the second half because of their speed, talent, and depth.
I’m not saying Oregon is as good as some of those teams, but the speed and depth are certainly there. And that’s what you need to be a great second half team.

I know we can't answer this objectively...
but is Chip Kelly the best coach in the nation? The way he prepares his team; the way he his players buy into his philosophies; the way he instills confidence in his players and challenges them without acting like an ass…
I could go on. I know that his W/L record is too small of a sample size, but just seeing the way he conducts himself…it’s such a pleasant change from the anemic final days of the Bellotti regime.
I’m not just saying this in hindsight: Even down 21-3 I never was worried (my dad and brother on the other hand, hehe) because knew his team was prepared to play, and that they just needed to stop giving field position to Stanford and play their game. Once Stanford actually had to put drives together, our defense came through…and the offense never seemed out of sync.
"Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do" -- John Wooden
Also don't forget the way they bounce back from adversity
(fBSU and Furd last year)
If it was me it would be Kelly and Saban in those top spots. Saban is a great coach who does a lot the same way, but yeah, I’m pretty happy Kelly’s going to be coaching for a number of years at Oregon.
Hey Daisy, git me anudder one!
Addicted to Quack
Yeah.
I’m biased, so I’ll always pick Kelly over Saban. I like to think of Kelly as Saban with a pulse. Objectively, though, Saban is probably going to go down as one of the greatest college coaches of all time…so it’s hard to say that any coach is better than him at the moment. Like how we feel with Kelly, I’m sure Tide fans were never worried against Arkansas.
I loved Kelly being wired on Gameday, yelling at Lache to give maximum effort. As a teacher, I like Kelly’s motivational style and philosophies a lot, and I have to say, that on more than one occasion I’ve told my students to “win the day”.
"Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do" -- John Wooden

"Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do" -- John Wooden
actually, my point is that he's only been in one through one season of coaching...
… you gotta give the likes of Saban, Tressel, Peterson, Meyer, and Stoops a little consideration.
Damn, my eyeball tastes good.
Change the statement to say the best young coach and I think he has a legitimate argument.

I was happy to see no one bash TJIII in the comments.
Luck didn’t pick on him too badly today. I don’t know anything about defense, but I thought TJIII played a pretty good game. That one TD by Whalen was just a great catch. Boyett on the other hand…sheesh he seemed out of position on a lot of plays.
"Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do" -- John Wooden
Not sure what was going on there...
…but TJIII was really, really confused on the ‘Furd TD down the seam to their TE. On the replay it showed him realizing late where he should line up, then it seemed he ignored the receiver releasing. Maybe that wasn’t his assignment, but with the LB’s needing to cover the run against the power formation, he was in the best position to run with the TE.
Maybe Matt Daddy can help understand that one…?

I have a question. What did they say on the TV about the late hit on Luck? Because everybody was pissed about the call and then everybody got more pissed when they didn’t call one on Stanford for hitting Thomas late in either the 2nd or 3rd quarter and it would of been a way more legit call then the one on Luck.
Meh.
I thought the it was a bang-bang play on Luck and the flag could have been picked up. But I understand that in this era of football a QB like Luck is going to be protected. In fact, I shouldn’t even quantify that by saying “QB like Luck”…I didn’t see the hits on Thomas you’re talking about (mostly because that dude’s a man, and can stand in there and take a hit), but QB’s in general these days…you so much as breathe on them after the play and you’re getting a flag.
"Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do" -- John Wooden
Blindside
I think it was a blind-side thing. Luck was defenseless, not expecting to be hit after releasing the ball. The Refs are going to call that a bit more tightly than a defender hitting a QB in the mouth immediately after the ball is released, when the QB sees it coming.
I don't know if I've ever seen a "blindside hit" on a QB called.
QBs are hit on their blindside all the time after getting rid of the ball. I could be wrong, but I’ve never once seen them call it a personal foul to hit the QB when you come from out of his line of sight. What are you supposed to do? Side step him, change course, and hit him from his front side?
My yoke is heavy.
Not exactly my point
Just in the spirit of ‘protect-the-QB,’ I think that play should get called tightly. It was technically a late hit (though I was psyched to see the pressure on Luck, and applauded the hit at the time). Of course there was no other way for (Turner?) to hit him.
There is so much subjectivity there. What’s the Ref’s official guideline?
My mistake.
I don’t think it was all that late. Kaddu was coming in like his balls were on fire and he got to Luck right as he let it fly. Luck has an insanely fast release. There was less than half a second between Kaddu making contact with Luck and Luck releasing the ball.
My yoke is heavy.
I agree with Quinn here
Kaddu didn’t really have time to hold up here. Luck was hit only a second or two after he released the ball.

Musberger started off saying it was a great call
and then petered out in to half heartedly calling it a good call because of some nonsense about protecting the QB’s blind side (with Herby half heartedly agreeing). Looked like total BS to me (and I’m one of the “they shouldn’t have overturned the interception” people too).
I thought Kaddu's was late
I know I siding with the officials here a lot, but Kaddu was stuck in that spot where even if he let up he was still going to end up hitting him, where if he didn’t want the penalty he should have at least attempted to let up (the refs would have saw that not thrown the flag) but instead he went after Luck.
Personally, I’m ok with that penalty. It wasn’t dirty, it wasn’t cheap, and he wasn’t trying to hurt Luck (didn’t go low or lower his helmet) it was just one of those plays where he had a split second to realize if I let up I don’t get a penalty, oh well, give me 15. It’s like when you accidentally run a red light because if you try and stop you’d be slamming on the breaks and you decide for whatever reason not to do that.

Ive been watching Duck games online thanks to the MyP@P.eu streams.
What makes me so very excited about being a Duck fan is that, on the sites at least, only Oregon fans never gave up on their team. At 21-3 Stanford, I don’t remember one complaints by any of the Oregon fans, or the other fans just watching Oregon for fun; it was one “give it time” comment after another. Then I log onto my favorite website (and my homepage) Addicted to Quack and the first thing I read is “When it was 21-3, I so thought it was over” and while reading a great chat here with someone from the Stanford site Rule of Tree (another great name) Luck’s 12 PASS COMPLETIONS last year was described as “seemingly down the field every play to beat the Ducks” I had to consciously stop myself from screaming at the computer screen. I feel compelled to recommend “The Science of Mind” by Ernest Holmes to all y’all at Addicted to Quack. You guys sound depressed and negative far to often. Even when you know Oregon is great it sound like you also know the world ends tomorrow and so no one else will ever find out. As your brother in sports AND life, I just want to say “smile.” Smile and don’t stop smiling. Your a Duck and Ducks just KNOW things are going to turn out well.

BCS National Championship Game

Hi Andrew, my name's Cliff Harris and I just locked that shit down.
Watching the Titans game reminds me of one thing that sometimes drives me crazy about Chris Johnson and makes me love LMJ even more...
Chris Johnson sometimes takes way too long to wait for his blockers to set up holes. He ends up dancing around in the backfield and losing 2 or 3 yards on a lot of plays. LaMichael is patient, but he doesn’t wait unnecessarily long for something to open up. If it’s clear to him that he’s going to go down and that waiting for a block or 2 won’t benefit him, he tries to squirt ahead and get all of the positive yardage that he can. I really appreciate that with him. He has some innate sense of when he should wait for a block to be set up, and when he should just abandon it and pick up 3 or 4 tough yards (which occasionally turn into ridiculous 30 or 40 yard gains).

They just brought up Lamichael "headhunting his girlfriend" on OBUNG
it’s about to get dirty.
Hi Andrew, my name's Cliff Harris and I just locked that shit down.
I'm sick of this, and every other thing about the Ducks being dirty.
You know Oregon is going to lose. It could very be because one of the thugs employed by Chip "how the hell did I get this job" Kelly, get arrested for stealing no.2 pencils from KMart.
The arrests this past offseason was very uncharacteristic of the Ducks. Even so, the only reason it was such a big deal is because it involved star players. I’m sure Boise State had a few arrests this past offseason as well.
Also, you’d think they’d remember this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKQwuLjT09Q

OT, but funny: The honeymoon appears to be over for Justin Wilcox
observed @ RockyTopTalk:
Another positive from the game (looking at the big picture):
After having 10 defenders on the field for three plays against UAB and 13 defenders on the field for the penultimate play in the LSU game, Wilcox is averaging very close to 11 players per play over the last two weeks.
Baby steps…

My favorite stat:
Sacks Allowed.
Through five games, our OL has allowed one sack.
Tied with Michigan for best in the nation (and to be fair, Robinson just outruns all potential sackers).

You really jumped the gun on that one. Chill out man its the internet. There was no reason to get so mad.
"We'll run the same play seven times in a row," Holmes said. "It'll go for two, then two again, then two again. Then we'll pop one for 20. We'll just keep running the play, running the play. We'll just keep chipping away. That's how we roll."
Why are you guys over there anyway
No good will ever come of it. Do your self a favor and stay away.

Wait, you were more afraid of Arizona than Stanford before yesterday? After seeing AZ play Cal I was much more afraid of Furd.

I’ve thought Arizona would be our most dangerous game since the preseason. They’re a lot better on the defensive side of the ball than Stanford, and have a good offense. I’ll forgive them having a poor game after the big Iowa win.

Of course they're going to say them
Nothing good can come of going over there. Seriously. Don’t ask a question you know the answer to, especially with people that have animosity for us. It would be like us going over to Germany during WWII and asking who they thought had the best military.
I credit my urine for the victory.
That’s why I left as soon as it turned to insults and name-calling.

Speaking of which…I need to go get some paint. I threw my wooden back-scratcher and it bounced off the floor into the wall after they scored that 3rd touchdown and chipped some paint. Luckily I still have some green paint left over from when I turned my loft into my Ducks-mancave. 1 green wall and 3 yellow walls, with no less than 40 Ducks items throughout.

I don't drink it for the label, I drink it for the taste.
Also, word to the wise Mr. College Student. Generally PBR tall can six packs are cheaper per ounce than a case of 12 ouncers. It’s important to stretch your beer dollar, especially in this economy.

that was something else
Under winter skies
We stand glorious
And with Oden on our side
We are victorious
Got home after a wild weekend
earlier this afternoon and watched it on the DVR – it was even better than the second time around! It’s always really interesting to watch the recording after seeing it live, because I really miss things that happened during the game. I guess that commentators really do add a little value after all.
Also, down 21-3 in the 1st, I turned to my husband and said “That’s a really big hole we dug ourselves” and I was very nervous about our ability to stop them and to win the game. I was having very bad, evil thoughts. Never again – I’ll never question their ability to come back from any deficit again. It was just amazing!
