We know they're a bottom-feeder in the Pac-10, but things must be really bad in Pullman.

Dr. Saturday: Waving goodbye to the USC hype train

Dr. Saturday: Waving goodbye to the USC hype train

Dr. Saturday talks about USC today, and discusses the lack of Reggie Bush-like players, and how the lack of reliable offensive playmakers has led USC to be very prone to the upset.

It's definitely as good read, as he always is.

Week 5 Pac-10 Power Poll Is Out: Oregon #2

The weekly Pac-10 Power Poll is out, hosted by our friends over at CougCenter. Oregon jumped ahead of Cal to claim the #2 position. However, things are sure to shake up this week, with two battles between top 5 teams, and #4 OSU going on the road against a good Utah team.

He can't revel in just beating USC.

I've been checking AtQ for awhile now and finally decided to make an account. I just didn't have enough patience to wait till the UCLA game but hope people still find it funny (also hope it hasn't been posted before). Go Ducks!

The hit that knocked Masoli out of the game.

Was it cheap? It wasn't really late, but the nature of the hit, and how the BSU player used his helmet was pretty crap.

Joey Harrington cut, NFL career over?

Joey Harrington cut, NFL career over?

This is just sad for Harrington. Never got the chances he deserved in the NFL. Bad coaching and bad players all around him cost him his starting gig in Detroit, and he was thrown to the wolves way too early.

Joe Giansante is a total asshat

Joe Giansante is a total asshat

Show some freaking respect for a good program. No wonder people hate Oregon, when jerks like this represent us.

Belittling a team throughout a game is bull, especially when that team is kicking your ass.

Don't hang your head

Don't hang your head

At the beginning of the season, and when I say beginning I mean when I feverously made a habit of reading every shred of recruiting information and visiting the Eugene RG blog on average five times a day, I also made a resolution to not go insane on game days and on Sundays after losses. I won’t lie, there were some outbursts yesterday rife with blasphemies that were most likely heard throughout Brooklyn. But in accord with my resolution to be calm and collected after a tough loss, here are a few thoughts. Feel free to poke holes in my release therapy.

-- I’m willing to give Chip Kelly the benefit of the doubt…this time. If I see that damn option sweep more than ten times in The Palouse next week I might raise an eyebrow. I have to believe that play calling is going to change. Period.

-- Darron Thomas was not playing over his head.
Well, not entirely. It’s a tall order to bring a kid in, only a few months removed from high school, to attempt to lead his team back. Part of me knows that his play came from an attitude of "nothing to lose" the other part, his confidence, coolness, and a good looking ball gives me chills. Don’t be afraid DT to use those legs. Further quarterback talks anyone?

-- Ducks showed some resiliency, again. But it was too little too late. I think this is best illustrated in not only the late game push but Chung’s second half kick return that almost broke. He almost willed himself into the end zone. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him run faster.

-- Anyone who has been around me on game day knows my superstitions. And although I never been one to transfer those ideas to uniforms, it might be time to shelve the grellow hats for a couple weeks.

-- In most football games, and particularly college games one can almost always count on some kind of break (fumble, pick, huge return, a bullshit pass interference call that should have gone your way, et cetera). Didn’t see a lot of those for the ducks.

-- Finally, after a tough week the Ducks will collect themselves. The resiliency will carry over, LGB will grind his teeth all week— look out Wazzu.

This was possibly the worst hire in the past 10 years. Bill Stewart cannot coach whatsoever. This picture was taken right before the 3rd and 2 play inside the 5 of West Virginia's drive in OT. That state can't do anything right.

Pac-10 Power Poll

Pac-10 Power Poll

SBNation affiliate CougCenter is putting together a "Super" Pac-10 Power Poll. They have done this on their own for a few weeks, but have started to incorporate the votes of other SBNation blogs. Currently CougCenter, UWDawgPound, HouseOfSparky, and AddictedToQuack are taking part, with more coming.

In the first poll, Oregon checks in at #2. I think it's a fair assessment at this point, though as always, there is a lot of football to play.

SMQ/Dr. Saturday previews Oregon-Purdue

SMQ/Dr. Saturday previews Oregon-Purdue

SMQ/Dr. Saturday provides good reasons why Purdue will be unable to match Oregon's offense. Purdue's defense is nothing special, and will have a tough time keeping Oregon under 30. Painter will have a hard time winning this game on his own. On top of this, the Oregon defense hasn't been tested, and against a high profile QB, they will be very motivated. Shutting down the Purdue passing game will turn some heads, and I think that will happen.

Also, Purdue and Painter have been terrible against non-MAC winning teams.

Overall, they simply do not have enough talent to match Oregon. They are average to below average at every position but QB.

AP Poll - WTF...ECU went from unranked to ranked over the Ducks???

I agree that ECU should be in the top 25 after their 2 impressive wins, but how do they jump straight from unranked to #14 in the AP poll? I think the coaches got it right - #20.

Ducks and Beavers Have Similar Records....

Ducks and Beavers Have Similar Records....

The argument that I always here is that over the past several years the Ducks and Beavs have similar records. Well, as we know, records don't tell the whole story....
