12 Pac Review: Trash Talking Edition. Oregon dominates; Cal finds there’s no place like home; WSU puts up another fight; and yep, UW’s D still sucks.

PrintQuick programming note: I'm taking off this Thursday with my wife to go to Italy for our 10th wedding anniversary. Therefore, Dave and Paul have decided to step up and produce the 12 Pac Review for you the next three weekends. Daisy is also going to be filling in for me in the Jersey Contest and she better not let me down. I'm going to try and watch the games online in Italy but a 5pm start here is 2am in Florence. Since I won't be here to talk trash to USC, UW or Cal, I've decided to get 3 weeks worth of trash talk put into one post. So here goes.
1. Oregon 60 vs UCLA 13 - Now that's how a #1 team is supposed to look on National TV. Dominant. That game reminded me a lot of the Cal 42-3 ass kicking from last year, only Ucla was good enough to punch in a meaningless score against our walk ons late in the game, unlike Cal. Oregon was clicking from beginning to end offensively. And defensively, Ucla could only manage two field goals with that 3 yards and a cloud of dust "squirt gun" offense (someone want to explain to me why that offense is so en vogue again). Oregon's going to most likely stay #1 in some polls with that performance. Next up? Kiffin's Tampon 2.
2. Stanford 38 vs Washington St 28 - WSU is turning into quite the pesky little team aren't they? I'm interested to see how they progress the rest of the season as it looks like the kids are finally buying into Wulff's system and are playing with a lot of heart. Luck didn't have his best day as he went 20/28 for only 190 yards (a 6.8 ave). Luckily the rushing game picked them up as Taylor rushed for 142 yards and 2 TDs.
3. Arizona 44 vs Washington 14 - Arizona back-up QB Matt Scott didn't have any problems carving up UW's defense as he went 18/22 for 233 yards and 2 TDs. Arizona didn't need him much though considering they gained 234 yards on the ground for a team that is 7th in the conference in rushing and only averages 121 yards. I love the fact that UW has gone to a lot of zone-read, pistol and even wildcat offense. I thought Sark was a genius at the pro-style system and could turn Locker into a Heisman candidate and top NFL draft pick, and then all those great high school recruits would be dying to come to UW and play for Sark. I'm guessing this game might have something to do with the change. Here I made a picture in art class this week for Jake to commerate that game:
4. USC - So we've given you two weeks to prepare. I hope you've used the time to a) find a new defense, b) find a new coach, and c) figure out who the best running back in the conference is. Let's see if we can help you out with this (I'll give you an hint, it's the guy that's only played in 5 games):
| Player | School | Games | Att | Yards | Ave | TD | Yards/G |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LaMichael James | Oregon | 5 | 114 | 848 | 7.44 | 9 | 169.6 |
| Johnathan Franklin | UCLA | 6 | 112 | 679 | 6.06 | 5 | 113.17 |
| Shane Vereen | California | 6 | 111 | 630 | 5.68 | 8 | 105 |
| Jacquizz Rodgers | Oregon St | 6 | 141 | 621 | 4.4 | 10 | 103.5 |
| Chris Polk | Washington | 6 | 109 | 571 | 5.24 | 3 | 95.17 |
| Stepfan Taylor | Stanford | 6 | 99 | 482 | 4.87 | 3 | 80.33 |
| Allen Bradford | USC | 7 | 73 | 560 | 7.67 | 4 | 80 |
| Player ? | Washington | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| James Rodgers | Oregon St | 4 | 8 | 38 | 3 | 0 | 9.5 |
Seriously USC, what's your marquee win on the year? Cal? You might want to remind your QB that talking trash didn't work out too well for him last year. By the way, if the weakness in your defense is on the edges or to the outside receivers, that's not going to bode well for you either. Oh well, we're happy to bring along our travelling road show to get you some needed pub for the week.
5. Oregon State
6. Cal 50 vs Arizona St 17 - Cal, you're the Dorthy of the Pac 10. There's no place like home, there's no place like home, there's no place like home. Too bad the Wicked Defensive Witch of ATQ North still isn't impressed by Andy "Cowardly Lion" Ludwig's play-for-the-punt scheme or Kevin "Scarecrow" Riley's ability to stand still in the pocket as he gets sacked. I can see Tedford now, "pay no attention to that man calling plays, the Great Tedford has spoken!" You're going to need more than your ruby red high heels and Toto Vereen to avoid another 42-3 nightmare. But don't worry Cal, when you wake up on that Sunday you'll realize that it was all just a very bad dream.
7. Washington
8. UCLA
9. Arizona St
10. Washington St
Utah 59 vs Colorado St 6 - Utah, you're schedule is making Potato State blush. You can do a lot to change that perspective if you take care of business the next three weeks (@Air Force, TCU, and @Notre Dame).
Colorado 24 vs Texas Tech 27 - TTU might have won the battle, but Colorado won the war. That's right Tech, you still have to play in the Big 12 next year and continue to kiss up to Texas to make sure your paychecks don't bounce, while CU gets to join the shiny new Pac 12 and play in LA every year. Colorado should just lose every game on purpose the rest of the year as their going away present to the Big 12, then again they just might anyway.

Maybe Arizona fans need a second chance. This is pretty funny…
Arizona fans chanted “Wazzu’s better” as the Huskies left the field. Be thirsty my friends. After a loss like this it may be the only solution if you are a Husky fan. It could be worse though…you could be a Coug.

Yes
We are planning a trip for the summer of 2012 – probably 10-12 days in duration. We are taking the boys and I’m already very excited. We’re going to spend a good amount of time in Rome and the Vatican (we are Catholic so looking forward to that part) and I’m thinking we’ll hit Naples and Pompei – I think the boys will really groove on the ruins down there. I will be really interested to hear any recommendations you have when you get back!
ATQ's #1 Matt Daddy fan
You can skip Naples if you want
I wasn’t really impressed with anything down there last time I went. We’re spending a couple of days in Rome (I have a client who’s cousin gives private tours of the Sistine Chapel and she’s worked up an itinerary for us for our time in Rome, I can email it to you if you’d like).
We’ll be spending most of our time in Florence and Tuscan Region (we have a B&B we’re staying at the entire time in Florence and then day tripping to other parts of Italy via train).
If you all are interested I’ll do a write up of my trip when I get back. Not really Duck related, but 50% of the stuff on this site usually isn’t.

Florence is definitely on the table for us as well, so I’ll be glad to hear all about it.

Way worse.
At least Canzano pulls a coherent column out of his ass once or twice a year, although it’s probably just to keep an angry mob of Oregon fans from burning down the Oregonian offices.
I’ve never seen Wilner write anything that even resembled rational thought.

"Hawaii doesn't win many games in the United States." -Lee Corso
my expectations are that we lose 1 game. of course a National Championship would be better.
Life is about growth. People are not perfect when they're 21 years old. - Bill Walton
Expectations
I expected 1 loss a few weeks ago, but I wouldn’t say I expect it anymore. It’s more likely than not that we do lose 1 game though. They showed the updated odds, based on computer simulations, of each team going undefeated on Gameday yesterday. Boise State had a 96% chance, and Oregon has the next best chance at like 46%. If that doesn’t speak to how easy Boise State’s schedule is, I don’t know what does.
The way I think about our chances of going undefeated is like this: imagine we took a single die (dice). I give you the numbers 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 on the die, and I get the #4. We roll it 6 times. One each single roll, you have a 5 of 6 chance of winning, and I have a 1 in 6 chance of winning. However, if it comes up 4 one single time, you lose everything.
So assuming we have as high as a 5 in 6 chance of winning each single game, it’s not that simple. If that 1 in 6 shot comes in 1 time, we lose it all. Each time a roll a die it’s very likely that 4 won’t come up…and, sure, it’s totally conceivable that I could roll a die 6 times and never see a 4 come up. But chances are good that we see a 4 at some point. The fact that the computer simulations have us below a 50% chance of going undefeated confirms that somewhat.
That being said, I am becoming more and more convinced that Chip has found a way to keep these kids truly focused and bought in. If that’s the case, and we play to our potential every week, that 4 will never get rolled!

If we have a Stanford/Tenn/ASU like 1st qtr against a USC or Cal can we still pull it off? I look at some of our games where we could have scored waaay more in the 4th but shut it down – so even if we get we go behind again I think we can still pull out a TD win down south.
That or we really are that damn good and Chip really is Maximus Decimus Meridius leader of the Northern armies – and we slay them easily.

I know what you mean. They lose a close one to Stanford and then beat Cal and all of a sudden they are back? We all know Cal pisses themselves about 3 or 4 times a year, so that game means very little to me. UW went into the Coliseum and beat them. The are absolutely capable of beating us, but I’m WAY less worried than I was against Stanford. USC is going to score some points with those receivers and a pretty good passing game, but I can’t see how they stop us. As long as we don’t turn the ball over I don’t see us losing.

Drilling down into the votes..
We picked up 5 first-place votes in AP, apparently at the expense of fBSU, who lost 4 of theirs.
fBSU is only 43 voting points ahead of Auburn in the AP this week. Last week they were 78 points ahead of Okiehoma.
In the UPI USA Today Coaches’ Poll, we picked up 8 first place votes; fBSU lost six of theirs. Not a significant shift in point totals here.. which would seem to indicate that a few of the “coaches” actually moved the buckos up in their rankings this week, balancing out their loss of points in the drop from #1.

I think most of these GM’s are so afraid of being hired themselves that they are afraid to hire someone who’s not “established”.

Imagine if the Ducks had decided that Chip wasn’t “established” enough and hired Dan Hawkins instead.

I just rewound that on DVR and did frame by frame. It wasn’t a lateral. Rivers released the ball while the ball was at about the 38.25 yard line, and it touched Hester at the 37.5 yard line.
That being said, just another indictment on coaching. If it’s even CLOSE, you jump on the f**king ball. I have Hines Ward on my fantasy team and watched him dive on a ball that was CLEARLY an incomplete pass earlier just to be safe. I wonder why the Steelers win Super Bowls and the Chargers are the AFC version of the Cowboys.

On a serious note, that was an amazing job by the San Diego defense. You, as a defense guy, have to appreciate that. New England had 6 possession, 4 of which had the following starting field position:
New England 43 (punt)
San Diego 22 (TD)
San Diego 41 (punt)
New England 42 (punt)
6 possessions, with 4 of them starting at almost midfield or better, and only come away with 13 points? That’s a pretty good job by the defense.

My USC prediction:
They play hard, and they play well. For the first half of fhe night, Barkley is on and Thomas is off. The USC defense is able to bottle James and Thomas up (temporarily), and it’s 17-28 USC at the half. When we come back, their lack of depth and our complete opposite of that catches up to them, and it starts raining touchdowns.
Final score: 52-38, Ducks.

I don't think that USC has the discipline that Stanford does
The only thing SC has going for them is that they are playing at home and our o-line has struggled on the road this year. But USC has not played a team with this much speed on the edges yet. They may questionably have more talent, but they are thin depth wise (both sides of the ball) and their scheme is not good if you spread them out and beat them to the edges.
On WSU’s first drive they went to the spread and marched it down the field on USC. WSU couldn’t sustain after a pick 6 and their D got run over, but it was an example of how vulnerable SC is if you get the ball in space against them. If we only score 17 in the first half, I’ll be very surprised and that means SC got the ball first. We’re going to move the ball up and down the field on them.

There’s a reason they ranked 90th in the country on defense.
There is. Their defense hasn’t been good — or, at least, not consistently so. But one thing concerns me: Here are the total offense rankings of USC’s opponents so far:
9 (Hawaii), 54 (Virginia), 59 (Minnesota), 81 (Washington State), 53 (Washington), 15 (Stanford), 64 (California).
Here are the total offense rankings of Oregon’s opponents so far:
117 (New Mexico), 95 (Tennessee), 34 (Arizona State), 15 (Stanford), 81 (Washington State), 102 (UCLA). Portland State doesn’t count since it’s 1-AA.
Reordered for emphasis, and with common opponents bolded, here are the lists:
USC: 9, 15, 53, 54, 59, 64, 81
Oregon: 15, 34, 81, 95, 102, 117
USC: 9 (Hawaii), 54 (Virginia), 59 (Minnesota), 81 (Washington State), 53 (Washington), 15 (Stanford), 64 (California).
My point is this: While WSU is the worst offense USC has faced so far, it’s the third-best that we’ve faced.
I’m not saying that our defense is bad, or that theirs is particularly good. I do think our defense is better than theirs, especially at that whole “tackling” thing that seems so important. But what I’m saying is that our number may be a bit inflated, and that theirs a bit deflated, compared to reality.
I still think we win this game, but I think it’ll be scary.

Liars figure and figures lie
One of the reasons those offenses are ranked where they are is they got to play USC’s defense. I’m not saying they’re terrible because I think they have the athletes, they just lack discipline and the ability to shut teams down. This is not the USC defense of all is really what I am saying.
Also, when you start to adjust the defenses and offenses for a per play basis it starts to stand out even more.

You're totally right.
This is exactly the problem with stats. It’s much like how Oregon’s defense had great stats last year because it was the only team in the league that didn’t have to play Oregon’s offense. (Again, not trying to detract from our defense at all.)
I only mention this because I know that I’m supposed to panic. I’m trying to figure out what to panic about.
Having watched the Hawaii game and the Stanford game, I do agree that these stats are potentially deceiving. And I certainly agree that this ain’t your granddaddy’s USC defense. (Again, those guys knew how to tackle.)
But, seriously, PANIC.

USC gave up 8.0 yards per play to Stanford. Oregon gave up 6.7. USC gave up 4.8 yards per play to Washington State. Oregon gave up 4.4.
Obviously strength of opponents should be factored when looking at both teams, and Oregon’s overall numbers have been inflated to some degree, but USC’s defense really is that bad, and I think it’s clear that Oregon has the better defense by a pretty decent margin.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
USC gave up 8.0 yards per play to Stanford. Oregon gave up 6.7.
Totally true. I will point out that Stanford was the home team against USC and the away team in what Spencer Hall has described as the “little box o’ hell” against us, but I don’t know that a 1.3 ypp differential can be thusly excused.
I got nothing for the WSU differential, other than that the differential was small.
But dammit, I’m panicking nonetheless.

“Figures lie, and liars figure”.. but you can’t argue with the hard stats. Although U$C’s numbers improved after last week’s beatdown of Cal, the fact remains that they are, statistically, ranked 87th out of 120 FBS teams in total defense. That’s 7th in the Pac10, ahead of Washington (98th), OAC (119) and Wazzu (120).
At 30th nationally, we’re third in the conference, behind Arizona (10) and Cal (15).
One reason to panic is that the scumbags are improving as the season goes along; at one point, they were ranked 99th in defense. If this trend continues, it might not be as easy to move the ball as we’ve seen over the first 7 weeks.
They’re good against the run (39th; we’re 37th). As Hawaii proved in the first game, you can throw on U$C; they rank 89th in pass efficiency D (we’re 7th).
The Trojans have given up 1918 yards on 249 pass attempts. Oregon’s seen 252 pass attempts (comparable) but only allowed 1431 yards (incomparable). TD passes allowed? Oregon 6; USC 15. Etc.
I wasn’t feeling as good about this game before last Thursday, but DT is improving in the aerial attack by leaps and bounds, and I feel fairly confident that loading-the-box-and-daring-Oregon-to-pass is not going to be a winning strategy for Monte and his boy.

It's true.
And any lingering fears I had about our possibly-tepid passing game were eliminated in dramatic fashion last Thursday. Either Darron had an amazing night, or his receivers were just ridiculous, or some combination of the two.
I don’t know which it was, but I don’t particularly care, since if we can just replicate whatever it was, we’ll be in pretty good shape.

I see both team coming out fast.
I don’t see them bottling up our offense. They might be able to “contain” the running game for a short time but not BOTH the running and passing games.
We’re not going to be able to keep them off the scoreboard. They have a POTENT offense in their own right. But it is inexperienced and we lead the nation TO differential. That’s what is going to cause them problems.

I actually like the idea of jinxing Riley. Vereen’s going to be pretty good, but I don’t think he’s going to break the game. It all depends on whether or not Riley’s on. If he plays like he has in their wins this year, it’s going to be a tough game for us. If he plays poorly (thanks in advance, Juju), the Ducks will roll.

I was interested to see how the gap between Oregon and fBSU would change. I don’t think a lot of people realized that last week we were only ahead of them by .0023. For reference, the gap between us and Chokelahoma was .0294, almost 13 times larger gap than between us and fBSU. If this ends up being true, that’s a big increase. That also means that if we keep winning and beat USC, Arizona, and OS that gap will increase even more. Hell beating UW and Cal will probably increase the gap too.

Gut-check question for everyone
Suppose TCU and Boise both win out.
1) Who will be ranked higher between the two?
2) Who should be ranked higher between the two?
I think a TCU victory over Utah is the most impressive thing either of the two teams will have done, and certainly dominates a Boise victory over VaTech. Looking at their hypothetical wins, here’s roughly how they stack up:
Boise: VaTech, OrSt, Nevada
TCU: Utah, OrSt, Air Force
TCU’s 1 and 3 dominate Boise’s 1 and 3, in my opinion. My answers are 1) Boise, 2) TCU.

Hard to say.
Utah will actually be hurt by the fact that one of their OOC games is with Notre Dame. TCU has the better OOC sched, and they’re in the same conference, so you’d think TCU would be ranked higher. On the other hand, if Utah beats TCU, Utah will get a bigger boost from the win than if TCU beat Utah, since TCU would have been ranked higher and had a tougher schedule…

I don't care what the numbers say
USC concerns me very much.
1. Their offense has looked really good. I think Barkley looks a lot better than he did last year. During last year’s game, USC moved the ball very successfully against our defense in the first half. That was without Robert Woods. We will not have the Autzen faithful supporting our D. Our defense struggled on the road against ASU – Barkley won’t throw 7 picks.
2. Yes, USC’s defensive struggles are well known. But they’ve had 2 weeks to prepare for our offense. Defenses always play better against our offense when they have extra time to become more disciplined. Their defense looked very good against Cal (yes, I know its schizophrenic Cal). But the good performance will give them a boost in confidence. Our offense is fast, but not playing on the turf makes us slower. Plus, our offensive line either shows up in the big way (UCLA) or they struggle (ASU).
3. Special teams concerns me. As great as Barner and Harris have been returning kicks for touchdowns, they’ve hurt us by coughing up the ball. Although we haven’t lost every muffed kick, the fumbles are momentum killers and keeps our offense off the field.

I agree. I think sometimes people don’t even realize they are, in fact, trolling. I see people visit the site of a team who just lost and give 3 sentences of compliments with one little Canzano-type backhanded compliment somewhere and then can’t understand why the fans of that team get so pissed.
When the Rose Bowl was winding down, this Ohio State fan behind me said “look at all the Duck fans tucking their tales retreating from the stadium.” I turned around and said, “it’s not enough that your team won, huh? You can’t be happy and focus on your team’s win? For people like you, you can’t be happy unless you can enjoy someone else’s misery. Your team is celebrating right now, and you are focusing on rubbing our noses in it. It’s not enough that we all spent a lot of money to come here and have our hearts torn out…no you need twist that knife in a little deeper in order for you to be happy. Stay classy buddy.”
My point is that when my team wins, I am happy about my team winning. I don’t need to kick the other guy while’s he’s down to be truly satisfied. I don’t need to go rub anyone’s nose in it. Unfortunately, I really don’t think I’m in the majority in my thinking. I THINK most people, for whatever reason, immediately think to talk shit when they win instead of being happy that their team is winning.

How did the
tOSU jerk respond to that awesome set down? I hope he had the sense to be ashamed.
ATQ's #1 Matt Daddy fan
He opened his mouth as if he was going to respond, looked at his wife who was looking at him like he was in the wrong, and just stood there. I was about 15 rows behind the tOSU bench, surrounded by almost all tOSU fans and nobody said a word to me. I stayed until the bitter end because I wanted to experience that so that when I finally get to witness a Rose Bowl win some day it’ll be that much sweeter.
And when that day comes, I will remember how shitty it felt in January 2010 and I will make sure I’m considerate to the losing teams’s fans.

Agreed
I was in a section with all Oregon fans so I didn’t have an experience like that (we even partied with some very cool Ohio St fans that evening) but I will never understand the need some people have to kick others when they are down.
ATQ's #1 Matt Daddy fan
It’s just plain mean. When I see someone who just got his or her heart torn out, I don’t think “it would be fun to rub their nose in it, wouldn’t it?” My immediate reaction is “damn I’ve been there before and that SUCKS.”
I think its because I was a pretty good athlete when I was young and my dad harped on losing with class, but winning with even more class. That’s why I’ve always hated the O-VER-RA-TED chant…it has to come at the tail end of losing a game that a team was expected to win. Chanting that is focusing on kicking the other team when they are at probably their lowest moment, where I choose to focus on how happy I am that my team won instead.

I think its one thing to insult fans at a game
and another entirely to give opposing teams fans shit on internet messageboards. One of my business partners is an Oregon Stater and we have been flinging poo at each other for 25 years.
At any rate, my ban over at TDP is temporary. I’ll be back for the Washington game. People over there are in a foul mood these days and need some time to cool down. The funny part is that I was just engaging in normal conversation, not trolling at all (this time) :)

2-5 record, with 5 losses by 7 pts, 7 pts, 8 pts, 3 pts, 3 pts. Three of those five games we had the ball in a position to score with less than 2 minutes left. Twice we turned it over on downs after getting first and goal, and you just witnessed the 3rd where we missed a FG to tie and go to overtime. Fun times. If the Ducks weren’t doing well I may just have to give up football for the year before I hurt myself.

you forgot the false start that pushed your kicker back 5 yards
oh, and the fact that your own coach iced your kicker
"Hawaii doesn't win many games in the United States." -Lee Corso
He didn’t ice him. He was running the clock down as far as possible then calling a timeout so that if we made the FG we didn’t give the ball back to Tom Brady with a bunch of time left. The false start, after seeing the replay, could have easily been called encroachment as both of the defenders starting rushing and made him jump. Also, you may not have seen the play that was ruled a backward pass the NE recovered that was NOT a backward pass. I rewound and watched it and it wasn’t even close. I have no idea how they could say that there wasn’t enough evidence to overturn it. I think these refs use that excuse as a total crutch. They let plays play out just in case, which is a good thing, but then won’t overturn it if it was wrong. Pisses me off.

Bullshit. See above.
No player of the defensive team within one yard of the line of scrimmage may make an abrupt movement in an attempt to cause the offense to false start.
That’s how the rule used to be. They changed it several years ago.

They are supposed to be the same. I was reiterating the first post. This is the current rule. Years ago they defense could do whatever they wanted to try to get you to jump, but they changed it. Click the link if you’d like, it takes you straight to the NFL.com NFL Rule Book. This is another one of those cases where you say something smartass that is incorrect, you are proven wrong, but you stick to it and make the other people provide link after link in hopes that there’s some way of getting out of it. Both blockquotes are the same intentionally because that is the current rule.

"Hawaii doesn't win many games in the United States." -Lee Corso
Old-axemen rides again, I just hope this doesn't mean Old-Allioti got out of his cage...
The Pats weren’t ear which part?
No player of the defensive team within one yard of the line of scrimmage may make an abrupt movement in an attempt to cause the offense to false start.
2 players of the defensive team
Both on the line of scrimmage
Both made abrupt movements well before the Guard moved
The only debatable part of this is whether the refs need evidence that they INTENDED to cause a false start. I’ve seen a ton of times where they make this call and there’s never a way to know what a player INTENDED to do, because you can’t read his mind. That is debatable, at best, so your statement that it isn’t even close is wrong.
Forgetting all of that, you said:
well here’s the thing with that false start….people fake-rush all the time or pump-fake their blitz, if you will. The goal is to, you guessed it, make the opposing player jump.
Which means that you thought, at the beginning of this conversation, that “the goal is to, you guessed it, make the opposing player jump.” (Bold added for emphasis, italics added for condescending prick-ness) Which means that you thought that you could INTEND to make them false start and it was still fine. So, once again, you are wrong. You’ve been proven wrong. And yet, you are still trying to poke holes in it.
