Quack Fix: Auburn practices, Oregon practices are still closed, and the Tigers' "other guys"

in Morning Quack Fix
Email
PrintT-minus 5 days and counting. I can't take it any longer. The suspense is killing me. Here's your Wednesday Morning Quack Fix:
- The Auburn Tigers got on the field for the first time yesterday after arriving in Arizona on Monday and even spoke to reporters afterward. Meanwhile, Chip Kelly and the Ducks continue to, as Cliff Harris would say, lock shit down from the media. The Oregonian's John Hunt still managed to put together a handful of notes from both teams' practices, while Rob Moseley compiled a series of comments from Kelly and Jeff Maehl.
- Should next Monday be considered an Oregon state holiday? For some city councils around the state, the answer is yes.
- Much has already been made of Oregon as the atypical BCS title game participant. But probably one of the lesser mentioned anomalies is how little interest Oregon's players are drawing from NFL scouts. The Oregonian's Aaron Fentress has the story.
- Fentress and Evan Woodbery of the Mobile Press-Register continued their Oregon-Auburn comparison series with an examination of the assistant coaching staffs. Both give the edge to Auburn because of Gus Malzahn, but I like the Ducks' staff's tenure over a hot name on the coaching carousel. Advantage: Ducks, says I.
- The Oregonian's Lindsay Schnell takes a look at "the other guys" for Auburn on the offensive side of the ball. Believe it or not, they have a plethora of weapons not named Cam Newton. And despite the long layoff, Newton expects he and Auburn offense will come out crisp, but if the Heisman winner continues to stay out all night, those other guys might be relied on to play a bigger role.
- Following TCU's Rose Bowl win capping off an undefeated season, NBC Sports posted a poll asking fans how the Horned Frogs would fare against Auburn and Oregon. The results are somewhat surprising.
- Oregon basketball recruit Austin Kuemper suffered a setback when an MRI revealed a stress fracture in his left leg. The 6'9" Westview High School star is expected to miss a month. I guess it could have been much worse, but it's still a bummer for Kuemper amid his senior season.

Chad Doing, 95.5 The Game Morning Sports Page guy was discussing Nate Costa being in pads and was criticizing the move to potentially have Nate Costa take the last snap of the game if we were assured of winning. He thought it was disrespectful to the team, Darron Thomas and to the program to make special arrangements for Nate to possibly be in the game. He also seemed quite upset about the prospect with his co-host, Matt Brock, calling the notion “ridiculous”.
I just have one question. With practices being closed to the media and no information about this particular situation in published cycles, doesn’t this sound like a whole load of BS? I was a little concerned about this being passed off as fact.

Given that the illegal blocks Auburn throws are usually by OLs like Chaz Ramsey or Ryan Pugh, I’d be more worried about ending up with no defense than no offense. :-P
I can tell you one thing: the grass in Tiger Stadium tastes the best.

First off, it's not disrespectful at all and I am pretty sure Kelly would ask the team for their thoughts before doing this.
Second, it’s Chad Doing. Creating an entire show on baseless rumors is his forte.

Regarding TCU poll,
I would hazard a guess alot of TCU fans have been on their voting. I voted they would lose to both.
It's also a matter of our short attention spans.
Auburn and Oregon haven’t played in a month. TCU beat a very good Wisconsin team four days ago. People vote on what they remember. That’s why a win the last week in the season is better than one in the first, as far as the polls go.

I'm still mad about that season
I have one of the posters that declared “Catch Oregon making a run at 11 straight winning seasons” with pictures of former QBs and RBs and players all from the previous 10 seasons. I had it signed by Mike B. and framed then we lost to O freaking SU at the end of the season to keep us out of a bowl game and give us our first losing season in a decade. Man I was pissed.
Thanks for bringing that memory back depressed face.
Seriously though, I don’t care for the band-wagoners but it can’t be helped. Any team with success is going to have them and Oregon is no exception. I just take it in stride and know that in a couple years when we have a rebuilding season or two I won’t hear their voices in the crowd and I’ll be no worse off for it.

But that season had lots of moments that made me want to gouge my eyeballs out with a rusty ten penny nail. The baver beatdown was just the capper.

Yes
Here’s my take: It’s our duty to educate them. My 10 yr old is technically one of these bandwagonners. I’m going to turn him into one of the greatest, most knowlegeable, classiest Duck fan in the history of Duck fandom. We shoud all do this with any newbies within our sphere of influence. Some will float away from us when we don’t go to a BCS bowl every single year, but many will stay. They are now part of the family.
And I started as a bandwagoner
Thanks to the 1994 Rose Bowl team but moved to being a huge fan pretty quickly. Some if not most will float away but others will stay and become Ducks for life.

To my defense
1994 was the first year I started watching football. I was 7 when the Rose Bowl happened. The only thing I remember about that season was watching the Rose Bowl and not understanding how we could lose and betting a kid $5 that the Ducks were gonna beat the Huskies…and winning!
I credit my urine for the victory.
The first game I ever watched Oregon play
Was the 1994 Civil War on prime sports (long since dead network).

First Duck game I saw on TV
was in 1977, at Stanford.
We didn’t get on TV much back then. I was renting a house with some other students (1510 High St) and we sat my little 13" black and white TV on top of the oil-powered space heater in the dining room, because that’s where the reception was best. Watched us lose 20-10. (James Lofton was fast.) Drank too much beer, passed out on sofa. Forgot to move the TV from the heater. Heat came on overnight. Bottom of the plastic-bodied TV melted clean off and into the heater. Didn’t start a fire but made a big mess. I took it as an omen — the next game would be worth seeing in person.
The next week we lost to UW 54-0. That one wasn’t on TV.

*sigh* Just looked on StreetView. The house isn't there any more.
Just a vacant lot.
It was a funky old house. Best party house ever — there was a huge room upstairs with a wood floor and windows all around, and a separate stairway and entrance off the back, and you could park a dozen cars between the house and the alley, and the insurance company on the other side of the alley had a big parking lot too, and no fence. Plus an enclosed front porch that was the smoking lounge. Which, being the late 70s, is where everybody hung out.
That said, it was a teardown in 1977, but it lasted at least until 2001.

What was the cross street?
It sounds very familiar. Of course, you may have described about half the big old houses near campus…
On the west side of High between 15th and 16th.
From the satellite view it looks like the house is there, but the street view says otherwise.

My first Oregon game was the Oregon – UCLA game in 2000. My friend (not even my girlfriend yet, although she became my wife) and I had walked from campus to Autzen, only to find out when we got there that she’d forgotten the tickets in her dorm room. We ran all the way back to campus and got our bicycles and rode back. We made it by the end of the first quarter.
The game itself wasn’t incredibly memorable except for the atmosphere. I had never been to a college football game before and the crowd and the noise and the intensity were unlike anything I’d experienced. I was hooked.

I remember Freddie Mitchell getting a LOT of grief from the fans during that game. A mouthy one, he was.
That was, IIRC, the first time GameDay was in Eugene. My tix were in section 17 down towards the front. I remember watching Lee Corso standing on the sidelines talking on his Motorola flip phone, and holding it in the air when we were on D so whoever he was talking to could hear the racket we were making. Also remember him standing at the corner of the end zone intently watching the play on the field. He moved pretty good for an old guy back then.

My first game was in '73, but i was too young to remember
my first few years as a duck were spent sliding down the hills around the stadium on cardboard boxes. I was probably 8 (’78) before i really started watching and enjoying the games. Many a Saturday spent at Autzen in the fall. Most memorable game at that time was the toilet bowl due to its extreme suckitude. That and we got major shit for pulling up in an orange suburban with Duck flags all over it.

Taking my 8 year old to the NCG
I’ve been a fan since 1988, so I’ve got a lot of, well, perspective. He doesn’t. I wonder what the hell will happen if we don’t pull out this victory. He was also with me at the Stanford game, and I had to keep talking him back form the edge during the first half. If he’s a bandwagoner, he’s gone all in on this team and this season.

My 10 yr old is having a daily SNIT that I’m not taking him to the NCG (Mr. Daisy is tagging along). He keeps giving me detailed accounts of why he is a bigger fan than his dad is, and is throwing the guilt around because I didn’t take him to the Rose Bowl last year either. It’s sort of working. I wish he could go – he’s such a huge fan and he would be over the moon about going to this game. I’ve been driven to promising him that I will take him to some bowl, someday. He’s only slightly mollified.
Have fun with the guilt trip!
As for my wife and daughters, they’re flying to Phoenix with us but not going to the game, and they are happy about it (and my wallet is happier than it could have been). Tell your son he should feel lucky his mom is even into football.

This is so patently false that I don’t know where to begin. The whole point of the season is that it’s a long journey. Each game builds on the other. It is a test of fortitude and depth and resilience to last an entire baseball season and come out on top.
And then there’s the statistical significance. The San Diego Padres lost a “meaningless” game in May last year. It turns out they missed the playoffs by one game. So how meaningless was it?
I understand some people have a preference for football’s shorter season, but that doesn’t mean midseason baseball games are meaningless.

I hope Morris doesn’t get in. He was only the “dominant pitcher of a bad era” by luck and because people remember him for that one game in 1991. He pitched alongside Dwight Gooden, Steve Carlton, Bert Blyleven, Orel Hershiser, Fernando Valenzuela…who all pitched better than him. Maybe not for as long, but Morris was never truly great.

If my suspicions are right, and TV makes it slow, which team makes the better adjustment?

Oregon
Simply because we are a lot deeper on both sides.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Actually, I think that makes Auburn more likely to make the better adjustment. Oregon gets a lot of its value from the depth. But if depth isn’t all that necessary, some of that value is wasted.
I think the slower pace will slightly favor Auburn, but I don’t think it’s enough to get worked up about.

And the difference in the pace
Is that Oregon goes fast all the time except late in the game with a lead while Auburn will occasionally slow the pace to give their D a rest.

There’s one more TV timeout per half, which works out to 33% more commercial breaks (4 instead of 3).
If it seems like a lot, it’s because it is. Add the TV timeouts to the 6 allotted to the teams, and in the second half we’re looking at 10 breaks of a minimum 2 minutes each.

That they never have to worry about having a NC vacated because of that.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Its interesting
Except for your NC game vs. Miami, the team that has come in with LESS close calls has tended to win (and obviously your game was so close it didn’t matter), which makes a lot of sense when you think about it.
That’s Oregon this year.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
That NC v Miami team was all defense. Weird thing about this game coming up is that both Ds let people score. don’t get me wrong, they are good, but there are not the Ds one usually associates with a NC game, which makes this game very interesting.
Oregon's D relies on three principles
1. Don’t give up big plays.
2. FGs not TDs.
3. Be opportunistic on turnovers.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
And I will add 2 more to be fair
4. Move as a group, focus on gang tackling, don’t try to tackle 1 on 1 (we fucked this up royally vs. Pryor last year).
5. Use speed to overcome size disadvantages.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
I’m curious to see how they handle Newton.
FWIW – The kinds of D I usually associate with a NC game has it all size, speed, skill, and discipline. You know a lights out steel curtain kind of thing.
Could this year be the start of a new trend?
I've always believed that in College
A really good offense will beat a good defense more often than not because of discipline. That’s the trend I see.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
I see better conditioning becoming a widespread trend as well
I’m not making a bold prediction, but we believe we can win every football game.----Chip Kelly
I always think these adages change in post season play to some degree. I think we are in an era where offenses have gotten very creative and powerful, and found systems that are easier to fill recruiting wise, but even in this era, I think most of the NC of the BCS have been won by teams with nearly perfect Ds. This year it wont be so.

Yep
Although, I’d question whether just sitting in the front lobby of the school was the best use of his time. So while I see that he has a job to do, his job should be covering stories/news for the readers.
I’d have been interested in stories of what fans were doing, what other journalists were doing, what security was doing etc. He could have asked for interviews. He could have gone out and probed for a lot of interesting things. I’ve not yet seen anything from them regarding the stadium, the conditions, the press coverage, the TV situation. Nor the cleats, the uniforms or the weather. Nothing on the local interest in the game. Nothing on the financial picture behind it all (I’ve learned more from reading Death to the BCS).
There are so many, many things he could be covering, that if I was his editor and he’d asked me if he could just stand all day in the school lobby, I’d have made some pointed remarks. Even for the stories he wants to cover by standing there, I’d say some other means to get the same story would have made more sense.
And no way would I have condoned any sneak peeks of the practice. No, this is not journalism at its finest.
And on top of all that, to actually publicly write about his grievances which can ONLY make him look bad and piss off readers? Mystifying…his bosses are falling down on their job, too.

best prank, fill a manila envelope with flower, slip the open end under your room mate/ dorm mate’s door and stomp on it so when he gets back he finds absolutely everything in the room covered in a thin flim of flower that only gets sticky and gooey when you get it wet.

line up a whole bunch of dixie cups right next to each other on his floor (you can lay out a bunch really fast) then go back and staple them all together (once again this goes pretty fast, you could have about 50 dixie’s laid out and stapled in a couple of minutes. If there is two of you, you can cover an entire dorm room).
Then take a pitcher of water and fill each dixie to the top. If he tries to lift one up he’ll pull the whole thing apart and spill water everywhere. In order to dismantle it he’ll have to individually take each staple out of each cup and dump the water out of the cup.
12-0

Even better
Fill the dixie cups and then freeze the dixie cups. Now you place them upside down on a hard floor and let them be. The ice will melt and the only way to clean them up will be to spill the water on the floor. The suction of the dixie cups will keep most of the water in the cup untill it’s picked up or the seal around the rim and the floor is broken.

Anybody remember the '98 roster?
Someone’s selling a ring from the Aloha Bowl on the ebay.
The casting on the side of the ring reads “Davis”, “LB” and #94 on the helmet.
The only Davis I remember from the ’98 team was Davis Sanchez, a CB, not a guy likely to have a size 12 1/2 ring finger.
Oregon Ducks. Undefeated vs SEC since 1977.
94 was Quinn Dorsey. He was a linebacker though.

Based on the number of people I know who are going down like Dead fans, "looking for a miracle"

Right now there are only 139 tix available on StubHub. That’s not much turnover this close to game day.

The deal with Colt for me...
Is we are recruiting him as TE. Now, obviously the coaches know what they are doing, but we are pretty stacked at tight end. I was less excited about him there than I was at linebacker.
White, Paulson, French, Williams...
I mean, tight end is a very important position for our offense it just seems like we have greater need at linebacker…
I think we have like 4 verbals at LB...

“Oregon is a very exciting place to be right now with the way the football program has taken off,” Blackmon said. “They run a very explosive offense that is fun to watch and fun to be involved in.”
Blackmon, who played quarterback, running back and wide receiver, as a senior is ready to focus on one position and join fellow Under Armour All-American Tacoi Sumler (Miami, Fla./Columbus) in Eugene.
“There’s a great opportunity in Oregon because a lot of receivers are finishing up their college careers,” Blackmon said. "So I know if I can come in and work hard there will be a chance for me to see the field next year.
“The more guys like myself and Tacoi learn the system, our speed and talent will shine.”

Stub Hub is no longer selling tix to the BCS game according to Moseley's twitter, due to High Demand and Low Supply
Benzduck: ATQ's historian since 1894
interesting..
StubHub is no longer selling tickets to the BCS National Champ Game. Here’s Why: “As a result of the high demand and scarcity of BCS National Championship Game tickets, we have been unable to fulfill some customers’ orders,” said StubHub spokesperson Joellen Ferrer. “Unfortunately, one of our larger sellers for this event could not secure enough tickets to fulfill all of their confirmed sales, which has caused a trickle-down effect. We have purchased as many tickets as are available to help fill customers’ orders, however we are still short of tickets due to the incredibly high demand for this game. Additionally, we have currently stopped the resale of BCS National Championship Game tickets on StubHub and have chosen to reach out to buyers to offer them an incentive to more than double their purchase price in exchange for their tickets. Should buyers choose to resell their tickets, we will use them to fill the outstanding orders. StubHub will not be re-listing any of these tickets on its site. This was done in an effort to satisfy as many customers as possible, while standing by our FanProtect guarantee that states that all confirmed ticket orders will be fully refunded if they are not delivered on time, authentic, and as good or better than the tickets ordered.”
So.. Some sellers put their tix on StubHub but didn’t deliver them because they saw how fast the tix were increasing in value. StubHub sold the pledged tix before having them on hand. And some people who bought tix on StubHub won’t actually be receiving said tix.
That would really piss me off if I was one of those buyers who thought he was getting a pair for $750 as advertised a month ago.
Any other way to interpret this?
Oregon Ducks. Undefeated vs SEC since 1977.
That is exactly what is happening
as the price goes up so quickly, and it takes 3-5 days or so to process an order, a seller sells their ticket for 1000, waits for stubhub/paypal to process, then they see that tickets are now selling for 1400. The order clears but the seller rejects the payment, cancels the sale and reposts the tickets at 1400.
This happened to my friends and I. We got tix at 700 a day prior to the Civil War, then the seller backed out right after the CW when prices shot up 30%. We got our money back but had to pay 1050 to another seller. Those tix are in hand though, which is good as prices are now pushing 2000
its so good. that Fallon jersey is pretty sweet. i threw it up over on TrackEmTigers also.
ps: there’s zero chance they flipped a coin.

Fucking assholes. I just watched Jessie “The Bachelor” Palmer and Craig “Don’t stuff my kid in a closet” James on ESPN talking about Oregon’s defense. It was supposed to be a piece about how Oregon’s defense is underrated due to the offense. Pretty easy set up, lots of things to talk about, good cut from the players and coaches talking about the defense… cut to James. He says that everyone gets enamored with Oregon’s offense during the game and that’s why Oregon’s defense is so good… What the fuck? Ok, well you’re an idiot.
Then Palmer talks about how Oregon gets burned by their blitzes and worries about how many times they blitz Cam Newton because they’re going to get burned.
Ok, you fucking morons. Don’t talk about how Oregon’s pass defense is top 5 in the country. Don’t talk about how many turnovers they create. Just give them backhanded bitch slaps so that your boy Cam looks that much better going into the game. FUCK YOU!!!!!
I fucking hate ESECPN. I hate you, you cheater James. I fucking hate you, you troglodyte Palmer. I hope our defense feels jilted, over-looked, and underrated on Monday. I want 11 pissed off motherfuckers with something to prove on the other side of that line from AU and Newton, and I want people wondering what the hell that was they just saw from that gimmicky Pac 10 no defense school from the Northwest.

I know but that shit just pissed me off
They had a great opportunity to talk about this defense. How the offense and defense compliment each other. How teams are forced to go up against Oregon’s defensive strength (pass defense) in order to keep up on the scoreboard. How there are no real NFL prospects at this time on this defense but they’ve achieved national rankings by the way they play… etc etc.
Instead I get Tweedle Dee talking about gwacking offenses and Tweedle Dumb talking about failed blitzes. I really hate ESECPN and their talking heads. I wouldn’t begrudge Bellotti one bit for bolting that shit hole and getting back into coaching.

I feel your pain.
I had to stop watching all this stuff. Going back to Robert “Who The Fuck Is This Guy” Smith and his accusations of fraud, I concluded that for the most part these guys really aren’t paying attention and are just saying what they think sounds good. It drives me nuts.
I’m looking forward to their post-game spin control attempts. However, these will also piss me off, because they will not involve public self-flagellation for their transgressions.

All year they doubted us and said we’re good and flashy, but not for real. First we had to prove ourselves at Tennessee. No, wait, they suck, we have to beat Stanford. Well sure they turned out to be great, but that was just one win, we aren’t for real until we beat USC. Oh, we beat them, but wait, they’re down, how about Cal or Arizona? Beat them and THEN we’ll be legit. Okay, well you still have to get by the Bavers, but that was a “workman-like” win without any flash or style. You may be 12-O but clearly you aren’t any good.
You blew everyone out, which was bad because you were never tested. But you fell behind in half those games and had to come from behind to beat those weak Pac-10 teams, which is even worse!
Clearly we’re the worst team in the nation. We may as well just pack up and go home now.
