For your money what was the better football game, Red river shootout, or this game?
Glad you enjoyed Husky Stadium, Josh. And thanks for appreciating the intensity of the fan base.
These Husky fans are those same Seahawks fans and Sounders fans, Seattle fans always bring it loud
I was there, section 110, one of the best football games I ever seen. Got to enjoy with my son, we will never forget.
Go Dawgs
Husky fan here and far be it from me to defend Oregon but they deserve a ton of credit they are fantastic and very well coached. That Oregon team came into an extremely hostile stadium and looked completely unfazed they played hard nose tough gritty and mistake free football against their rival with huge stakes involved. The huskies made some dumb calls like two straight 3 and outs stopping the clock with 6 straight passes with an 11 point lead late in the 3rd. That was terrible play calling going for that kill shot deep pass when you should play the clock especially when you are running the ball well. The Huskies also got stuffed on a 4th down try. Both teams played aggressive and gutsy football and the Huskies barely pulled it out. Absolutely no shame from Oregon at all they win that game 50% of the time it’s literally a toss up. Its very likely they get their shot at us again in the title game.
Oregon fan here. Good to see Doboer doing what he was doing. The best thing to happen to UW was firing Jimmy Lake.
thank you....i pains me but yall just made a few more plays...penix is the best QB in the country should win a Heisman...ducks lost but showed they are not frauds...great game...hope to see you in vegas
Hoping to play UW again in Vegas, it’s a blessing to see these teams play when both are as good as they are
both teams left points on the field
Glad you had fun. Thought I'd mention there was a decibel machine on during the game that registered 131 on several occasions, just short of Husky Stadium's cfb record of 133.6
Thank you for acknowledging the gorgeous area and the quality of football, fans, and the stadium.
I think you can understand our frustration for the last decade and a half or so with the lack of media coverage in the area and the bias to other conferences and teams. Really sucks to see the pac-12 go, especially with atmospheres like you just saw.
well those atmosphers are Big 10 atmospheres not PAC 12. Stanford / Cal are PAC 12 atmospheres.
Dude you're right, when walking down the stairs from the top of husky stadium, it definitely gives you the jitters 😂 I hate heights
Never liked the 300 sections. Hope those that drink have good balance 😂
@@PnwPinoy96 right!? Seems almost like a liability lol
Washington’s defense impressed me. I’ve been saying Oregon and utah were the only p12 teams with a defense that can compete for a title but Washington proved me wrong, and I admit it.
heck yeah, they held Oregon to 541 yards and 31 first downs. Oregon held themselves under 40 points.
@@BSPotter0/3 on 4th downs but keep making excuses
Oregon has to take care of business from here on out, they do that, and we could see UW again for the PAC title. If it happens, its going to be just as wild as this one was.
Side note, if those calls wouldve worked out, folks would be calling Lanning a balsy genious. Dude has made big changes at Oregon so far, and more will come.
Yeah and soo farhis decisions cost us vs the huskies 2 years in a row, this one was incredibly bad though blowing it 3 times in on3 game
What has he changed? Chip & Helfrich both went to a Natty thats the standard furthermore
Oregon was already a well oiled machine when he arrived. Oregon's campus, Nike backing
sell itself, Chip made Oregon what it is today, Lanning loss both rivalry games last year and
this year he's 0-1 in rivalry games, appears to be a good HC, I've seen nothing to show
he's special, good recruiter, think's he's smarter than the room. If those calls worked out? Balsy genius
Are you a square, you don't have to be a genius to take points before the half, whether they worked out
or not it was arrogant and bad coaching decision in particular the 4th attempt before the half. If he pulled
that shit as an SEC HC 0-3 on 4th losing a game they may cost you CFP, folks would be talking about his buyout
here on the West Coast we're a bit more forgiving. No need for side notes, don't reinvent the wheel
@@702TifosiGambler my God you are crybaby🤣
Husky fan here. I thought Lanning’s decision to go for it on 4th and 3 was the right one. You have the chance to put the game away right there. It was just clearly not the right play call.
Are you crazy? Lanning is an idiot a horrible coach who so far has come up wrong every time! Its amazing that you Ducks cant see a poser when you got one on your payroll. Just cause a coach is good as a coordinator does not mean they will be good as a head coach. 500 plus yards of offense with zero turnovers and you lose??!! Give me abreak! Stupid coach!
I’ve always been a fan of, “if it’s 4th and 1 anywhere on the field we’re going for it. If we can’t get a yard, we deserve to lose.” However, Dan Lanning made some bad calls but he’s handling it well. He is smart enough to take a knee to end the game tho😊
As a Gator fan I couldn’t have cared less which team won. It was a intense great game. Hat tip to Washington
"We talk about winners first" you are one of the only ones... WA won and everyone talking about Oregon more. Glad you loved the atmosphere! Great game.. Oregon played better than I anticapated. Our Tackling needs work!
Duck Alum (class of ‘90) here: very rarely can you look at a game and say “this could have gone either way.” And that was this game.
D and running ball travel well and you take points on the road. You have to take those points before the half.
Lastly, it pains me greatly to say this: UW is damn good. I really hope we get another shot at them.
ya i totally agree take the points before half...love lanning love the ducks...dawgs just made a few more plays...it aint over...
What an epic game! Michael Penix a wonderfully accurate passer. It looked like he was hurting towards the end of the game. Oregon really put some heat on him. But he stood in there and came through. I live 15 minutes from Autzen stadium so Oregon ducks are my team. I cannot wait until the Pac-12 championship on November 1. By the way Josh, you are spot on. Dan Lanning is a wonderful coach and I'm happy that we have him as our coach. The only decision that I think maybe could have been different would be taking the field goal and the points with you into halftime. But he's the coach. The Oregon defense was superb. It's only going to get better. Dan is young and still learning. I love the idea that he is not risk adverse.
Josh, I really enjoy your shows on TH-cam. You are insightful and really well spoken. Thank you
These teams are rematching for the Pac-12 Championship Game. Both teams will only get better from here on out. Not only am I excited for one of these teams to likely be in the CFP, but for both to be in the Big Ten next year.
Washington can’t recruit for shit I’d be surprised if they aren’t a bottom feeder next year.
Some big 10 teams better get ready. Washington and Usc are the historically strongest programs in the pac10. And Oregon has all the Nike money.
I hate Oregon with every fiber of my being but they have been good at football recently. As a Washington fan. Beating them twice in a row isn't enough .
The dawgs on Washington won’t be there I’m not knowledgeable on who they have waiting in the wings maybe y’all know more than me
@@coreyjones1440 you aren't wrong. But it's only year 2 for their coach. Should only get better.
You forget the defending back to back Pac 12 champs? Utah can still make the title game if they can get rising back soon....so not so fast
Why not talk about the job Coach Deboer did?
Cuz he was given the game lol
Everybody knows he is a good coach. Still, the Ducks dominated the game in every measurable statistical category.....other than 4th down efficiency.
@@VinnyKnucklesAnd they still lost.
@@VinnyKnuckles and points
@@coryrikard8943I love people who give entirely unhelpful, useless comments.
I went to U Dubb my freshman year in 98. The view over Puget Sound is incredible. S/O to Brock Huard
Thanks for the props on our stadium . Let Purple Reign Again!💜 GoDawgs
Michael Penix Jr is the best QB in the country just off his accuracy 💯 dude deserves to lead the heisman race right now
Accuracy should be the #1 QB trait
Accuracy, dude was in the high 50s to end the year lmao
That was the BEST game I have seen in along time...Shout out to you UW, I've been rooting for you guys since 1994! I was stationed up in Bremerton, Wa. when I served in the NAVY...the boys and I spent a whole lot of time on UW's campus!!! 😉
Go Dawgs Mr navy man.
Right as half time started I told my dad "wouldn't it be something if Huskies win by a FG because they didn't kick the FG before the half" sure as shit that's how it played out. Go Dawgs!!! Miss you Gramps that win was for you!
Remind me of last year game.
@@rondolan6457 was very fun to watch. Both teams played exceptionally well.
I said the same exact thing “wouldn’t if be something if that non-FG at end of first half costs us the game” sure as shit that’s how it played out. Congrats, hope we both win out and meet in PCG
Both teams went for it on 4th down three times each. The difference is that Udub executed on 2/3 and Oregon was 0/3.
Yet the Ducks still had a very makeable field goal to tie it at the end, since they dominated the game in every measurable statistical category.....other than 4th down efficiency.
Fuck that you gotta kick the field goal before half that's just stupid , no nfl coaches are making thag move before halftime unless they are indeed up , it was 18-22 just take the points and be down by 1 coming out of halftime , smh and that weak ass sprint out play he kept calling was so obvious
@@VinnyKnucklesIf the ducks were so 'dominate' then they would have won easy.
@@sinerge2832 Games aren't won with stats, but if you look at the box score, what I said is true. Not only did Bo Nix throw for more yards than Penix, at a higher completion percentage, but the Ducks ran for over TWICE as many yards at a higher per carry average. The lone turnover in the game was a Penix interception. The Ducks dominated the time of possession and converted 3rd downs at a higher rate. Look at the box score. Virtually the ONLY thing Washington did better in this game was winning the small handful of 4th down plays. My point is, over 90% of the time a team getting outplayed in all those categories, like Washington did, will lose the game. Washington got some things to go their way that let them beat the odds. Since winning is all that matters, good for them.
@@VinnyKnuckles then why are you bringing up stats?! You're contradicting yourself. Only thing that matters is who won. Just get over it.
Haha as a UDub alum living in Texas among many a CFB fan who thinks like you did, I'm going to save this to play for all neighbors living in Myopia.
P.s. Excellent take on young coaches
Washington is in my mind top 2 best in the country right now
Nah
@@AuthenticGook who are you putting above them? a Georgia that's not clicking at all? Michigan I understand, but are you putting an FSU or an OSU team that's struggled with lesser opponents above them? OU and Penn State have one quality win between them, and Penn State is not the one with the comparable win.
too high
There isn’t a team in the top 4 that can defend their passing attack
@@theechoproject899 Uga stays above them you can't move the 2x national championship winner when they didn't lose and sure they not clicking but every year when they have won they played people close in games that shouldn't have , still undefeated . And Arizona played Washington pretty close , it's okay for close games to happen as long as you pull the game out that's literally the difference in most games . Michigan and Uga you can't move rn even with not clicking , I'll have Washington at 3-4 but if you wanna talk about that win you have to talk about Oklahoma bc I think they should be top 4 as well rn
Both of those teams looked damn impressive. Hope we get to watch a rematch in Vegas.
That Washington Oregon game is what college football should be. Amazing game, great offense, physical tackling. I loved every minute of it. I will say I think Oregon was the better team but they left too many points on the board. And Washington took full advantage. Shout out to the Huskies for capitalizing and getting the dub🤟
I'm from a little town called Sequim, Washington and you should have made a trip across the Tacoma Narrows bridge and come out and visited after the game. Such an amazing state and an amazing game.
Sequim (pronounced squim) is known for having the least amount of rain in Washington :)
Josh you've made clear for everyone to realize Lanning's decision. He's a great coach. Stupid to compare to Mario Cristobal. He will make Oregon better from here on out.
Dan Lanning tells Mario Cristobal, Hold my beer.
it was no where near that level of stupidity
Dan is my coach and Oregon is my team. And I am damn proud. Only up from here. And that’s saying something.
Ok I guess you are a loser! Congrats! Maybe next time! 3rd time a charm?!
Husky stadium already holds the record for loudest stadium in college football at 132 dcb and we were consistently hitting 130-131
He was on the Southside too. The Northside is from 1987 and is far steeper. You fall, you fall a long way. Seen many drunks fall several rows before someone stops them.
Josh, thanks for coming to Seattle and catching a game in the Dawghouse! The Huskies are always overlooked and underrated, glad you saw them in person. Go Dawgs!
I was disappointed in some of the aggressive calls by Lanning. I said weeks ago Washington was a top 5 team. Heck, they are a top two or three team. Fun to watch. Maybe two top 5 teams. What surprised me the most was Washington's Defense. They played great.
JP...probably the BEST take on this game that Ive seen! As a life long Duck fan......this outcome broke my ❤!!
Josh....thank you! You helped me reassess MY stance as a fan who " second guesses a coaches decisions in close games!" After this video....I will TRY to trust Coach Lanning's " in game " decisions...no matter the outcome!
Great commentary/analysis as always!
Great commentary and very accurate
The funny thing about all of this is that if Oregon's kicker does his job and makes the tying field we aren't even having this conversation about "coaching decisions."
Josh Pate, you just made my day. Thanks for actually talking about the winner of this game. No one else seems to.
I haven’t heard much about Coach Prime lately. Time to do a video about him. 😂
😂😂😂😂
During a 1992 game against Nebraska, Husky Stadium reached a level of 133.6 decibels, which remains the most noise ever recorded during a college football game.
It’s a strange thing when people say they are surprised husky stadium is loud; it has the loudest game recorded. And the Seahawks play on the other side of town and that is also the loudest nfl stadium.
Lumas field was built like husky stadium built to be loud
@@rondolan6457When we lost the Kingdom, folks were worried we would lose our noise advantage. The NFL even had a "Kingdome rule" where the home town could be penalized for beinflg too loud(!). So Paul Allen instructed his architects to design the new NFL stadium to be as loud as possible.
He is smug and thought he was so cool against Colorado lol. You got your clicks and humble pie.
huh?
Ok someone explain this one to me, honestly I’m confused as to what you’re trying to say
Lanning is arrogant and cocky and it has cost Oregon 3 games now since his arrival. They could not have found a more perfect coach for the identity of their program. The guy thinks he is going to outsmart the lessons that 150 years of college football has taught almost every other coach.
@@BWinDCIHe has to be referring to Lanning's "We're playing for wins, not clicks" speech. They did not get the win so it must have been for clicks.
@@area.man.your logic is very flawed. Even the guy who made the video was confused😂. It's not arrogance to think you're the better team when you're statistically the better team. They fell just short because of a couple good plays by Washingtons defense that weren't present the rest of the game.
Great video. Thanks for being so insightsul and honest.
Credit to Washington. That said, the reason why all those Oregon stats weren’t “good enough” was because of Dan Lanning.
Looked like a playoff game great teams
I love the non-typical, outside-the-box way of breaking down what he saw and throwing out a different narrative that people should grasp. Don’t think that you have to follow the popular narrative (Dan Lanning blew it), but perhaps instead it’s the other narrative (WA made the plays the ducks didn’t).
Cheers to the possibility of being blessed with round 2!
Go Dawgs!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Both things are true, 1) Dan Lanning blew it by taking unnecessary/unacceptable risks (cost us six points) and 2) Dawgs made us pay for the hubris of a young coach. I actually don’t blame Lanning at all with the 4 and 3 at end of the game, risk-reward and all. Congrats on the W, see u guys in Vegas
Seattle has some of the loudest recorded games across different leagues, we know how to get loud. Go Dawgs! 3:27
Josh...I've always loved your energy. In fact, several years ago I said put RJ Young and Josh Pate together in a format that works and they'll SLAY anything the networks can construct (on college football!); oh..to dream. But your take on Dan Lanning is grown man stuff brother! That's the point I've tried to make to the insane Duck fans that hate Washington so much they can't see the 'method to his madness' the 'forest for the trees' as to why a mental paradigm shift is essential to Oregon football! Even Cristobal had a hand in who we've become. It was Mario who contributed the athletic/SEC-sized offensive lineman in the mix. Lanning's shown tremendous growth in a condensed window of evaluation, and he's fantastically expanded on area his predecessors laid the groundwork fo (recruiting; exciting offensive football; our tradition of great running backs has returned on his watch).
I'm afraid our latte-sipping an base is going to run this guy right into a culture that understands and yearns for a Big Boy football team. These people are seriously out here WHINING about a character trait you can't win WITHOUT! When the bright lights of the CFP shine on the consciousness of a team they'll fold like a cheap tent if they're not mentally bullet proof.
Go Ducks!
Your take is spot on. As always. Good work.
This is why I watch your show, and subscribed. You are in tune to College Football. The one thing I can say, and think about being aggressive is more weight should be given to the consequences of not taking the points. The benefit of taking the 3 was more than the risk for 7, and the possible 0.
This game and red river unbelievable
2 instant classics....i was wondering if this game would match the red river...it did...
Desmond Howard said that Michael would bring that "Big Penix Energy " 😂😂. I cant believe he said that out loud
Penix sold T-shirts with that on them last year.
I’m a Bama fan and I do believe Washington is elite. They have 3 WR’s who are a match up nightmare for any defense.. along with a stud QB, mixed with some creative play calling.
We Duck Fans Appreciate You Josh! We Will See UW At The PAC 12 CG! It Was A Great Game, SCO Ducks! 🦆💪🏽
Looking forward to another matchup between the ducks. Hopefully both teams season will end up at Pac-12 CG
From a Canadian 🍁 Go Dawgs, here's my issue ; how the heck is #2 Michigan #2 bunch of homers voting or what ? Next issue ; Oklahoma #6 homers voting again. Next issue ; Arizona Wildcats ### where are they in all this, show some love, i can't believe they didn't even get a mention.
huh? are you saying homers are voting against them? Because they (Michigan and Oklahoma) definitely look like two of the strongest teams. If you are saying homers are voting for Georgia and Penn State then I get it and agree.
This is incredible analysis
Washington went for it on 4th &6 and converted they were just as aggressive
Used to work for Cooper Petagana as a scouting intern at UW before the pandemic. Tell him Gabe says hello
I’m a very happy Huskies fan because I saw the Huskies defeat the Ducks at Husky Stadium.
A highly anticipated game that wasn’t a disappointment.
As a Toronto native thank you for calling it the Skydome 😂
Odunze was an amazing reciever last year, he is one of the best in the league this year, no doubt!
Great, great game…👊🏻🇺🇸🏈
Somehow, this needs to all end in a Michigan/Ohio State vs. Washington in the Rose Bowl. Send the Grandaddy out in style!
"I trust that I don't know what they know"..... great statement and very true..... if you have never been a college head football coach of a contender...then just watch and enjoy it......PS Great show Josh
As a heartbroken Oregon fan this def made me feel better thanks Josh! I def didn't like the 4th down calls, especially the one before the half, when they were called but also get its part of the DNA of the team. Biggest issue I had with the call is that they didn't take advantage of a rare turnover and they also got the ball to start the second half.
UW could've had more points if they ran the ball more. The two three and outs they had were all pass plays. Dillon Johnson was averaging 5 yards a carry. If they score this game is a lot less close. If these two teams do meet again Washington will need to run the ball even more successfully to win
McMillan was out early too. If he's on the field it's a different game
@@Garlander he didn't play at all
@@glennbarrett7234 he was in for a couple snaps, then he reaggravated his injury.
Honestly I don’t think so. Washington was able to penetrate because of the running already. The moments where they scored were those deep balls. Both teams started to really get the run D down in the late game.
@@geediali9941- that's because Washington went away from the running game completely in the 3rd qtr. Two series in a row they went 3 and out without attempting a run. That changed the complexion of the game and allowed Oregon to come back from a two score deficit. Most Washington fans are complaining about play calling in the 3rd qtr and why they weren't as balanced as they were in the first half.
I honestly think that if Washington runs the table and Oregon runs the table from here forward and we get an 11-1 (8-1) Oregon vs a 12-0 (9-0) Washington in Vegas and the game is almost identical and Oregon wins leaving both teams 12-1….there is no way you could convince me that these 2 teams aren’t both top 4. If they were in the SEC, and we were talking 12-0 Georgia vs 11-1 Bama and Bama won, or this was the B1G and 11-1 Ohio St beats a 12-0 Michigan, they both get in 10/10 times. It’s a big if, but IF that is what plays out, Oregon and Washington both deserve a spot.
Oregon couldve won this if they convert at least one of those 4th downs
Go Ducks! 🦆
The reason people are talking about Dan Lanning is because it was Oregons game to lose, and they lost it mostly from bad coaching decisions.
I am still exhausted from Saturday.
I believe it was an awesome venue.
Autzen gets very extremely loud, too, especially considering how small it is compared to many SEC stadiums.
I'd bet Ducks on a rematch in Autzen with confidence.
While Huskies hold some sort of national decibel record, too.
Probably. Hard to admit, it is- such an excellent school all around.
PNW rivalry. I can't imagine how awesome it was to be there.
Btw, even Dan admitted he was to blame.
Can’t wait for everyone’s reaction when Oregon is still above Washington in the JP poll
He's been consistent about future matchups at a neutral site. It wouldn't surprise me if UO was ahead of UW in the poll. It would surprise me if either team was outside of the top 6.
I think Dan Lanning is doing awesome with Oregon, its his 2 year as a head coach, he just can't be a nick saban your Kirby smart in a couple years it not like he has been a head coach for years some where else.
Booked for the rematch in Vegas! Those poor fusckies!!!
Did they cancel the civil war this year? Or has OSU already forfeited the game? Hope you got refundable package. Last I saw, OSU was putting a beat down on UCLA.
You’ll take that statement about steep upper decks and view back once you decide to go to Clemson 😏
Saw you from section 300 Josh 😂
The real rematch between Oregon and Washington will be them fighting for a portal QB after this season
Uh.... And which offense would YOU want to play for?
I liked the mentality Lanning had for this game you gotta be willing to take chances in these big time games but the way he put forth that mentality in the game was not up to par. I too was really confused by the decision to go for it at the end of the half. Shoutout Washington they played hard and in the end wanted it more hopeful we get this rematch in Vegas
Washington, home of Microsoft, Starbucks and the Greatest setting in College Football
Husky stadium reach 130 dbs and averaged 120 dbs all game. It gets loud.
If panning decided to play traditional football Oregon scores on 3 field goals, assuming they make them, so yeah Oregon should have won, but we know what happened, taking nothing away from Washington, that pat penix drive was sick, 2 plays to take the lead
Washington could clinch playoff birth if they stay undefeated
My philosophy has always been, don't leave points on the field. It bit Oregon and also bit the Seahawks against the Bengals. Instead of playing for a TD to win, the Seahawks were in excellent position for a field goal to win, had they kicked the field goal on their previous possession. It all has to play out, of course. But play chess, not checkers.
It’s just extra painful because it was a similar story last year in Oregons losses. 0-5 on 4th down in a loss to the beavs. UW last year the last missed 4th down gave them a short field and set up the winning FG. Not all analytics apply to football especially in rivalry games. It’s just frustrating to see it happen a 3rd time. Either analytics aren’t always trustworthy or Oregon is extremely unlucky or bad on 4th down
Go Ducks
11:00. This is the critical piece. The quality of a football decision is not based on the outcome. Down, distance, score, time, momentum, flow of game, personnel, and those things define the quality of a decision. Just because you don't convert doesn't mean that the decision to go for it was bad; just because you do convert doesn't mean the decision to go for it was good.
For example, the Miami coach who ran the ball against Ga Tech made a horrible decision. Even if that guy gets harmlessly tackled and Miami wins, it was still a horrible decision.
I think the 4th quarter decision to go for it on 4th down was a poor one. The risk:reward scenario was out of balance, Oregon's defense had held UW to 7 points in almost an entire half, "trusting your players" is a concept that also extends to the defense, going 80+ yards is much harder than 55, etc. The FGs were a flip of a coin.
What a bunch of rubbish!
# 13 Reciver for The Stanford Cardinal 🍁 Keep your eye on him 😊
Not even just the qbs that moved west the starting db for Oregon transfers for Alabama Dan Lanning can get players out there.
Glad you enjoyed your time Seattle! Bow Down to Washington!!!
Husky stadium topped out at 131.4 decibels, 3rd loudest of all time behind Clemson at 132.8 anddd…husky stadium again at 133.6
Also thank you Josh for acknowledging the atmosphere in husky stadium. It’s hard to get attention in the PNW so your words are much appreciated🙏
how many years have both QB’s been in school?
Penix’s stats probably would have been higher if he wasn’t fighting stomach cramps in the second half.
It’s funny how Oregon has moved from being *perceived* as the “flashy and cocky” PAC12 program of years past to more of an “aww shucks, clock-in clock-out” kinda vibe under Lanning this year. From the aggressive play-calling and physical style of play to the types of recruits they’re going after and the masterful self-branding during the Colorado situation, I feel that he is successfully shifting that culture back to its roots. It also helps that USC and the Buffs are relevant again and have obviously begun to soak up those kinds of aforementioned criticisms
Listen, I hate Washington. And I hate that we came out on the side with an L. But this game was absolutely incredible. Their HC is the real deal man. Those receivers are all big time nfl talent. Michael Penix is the Heisman front runner and favorite at this point. All the credit to the huskies. They played outstanding football. They deserve the W. But I’m also so proud of our boys for going in there and fighting their asses off. There was no point in this game where either fan base could feel comfortable. What a show for the PNW. What a show from the PAC-12. We play quality ball out here too. And we showed it to the nation. I love our HC. He’s young, he’s still learning. But we have a lot to look forward to. Go Ducks!
Husky fan here, such a mature comment. I have to say....that it one of the best college I have watched. I mean to to be great, you have to beat a great. Both teams balled out. Oregon running game is like chinese tourture.
@@Joclaim1a hat tip to you. I appreciate the comment. I feel the same way about your passing attack. It’s like death by 1,000 cuts. Let’s hope we get to run it back one more time 🙏🏽
These are two very evenly match teams. They play 10 times at a neutral site, each team wins 5 games in my opinion. The conversation about Dan Lanning's choices would be completely moot had his team succeeded in any one of them. Do you notice how no one is talking about how DeBoer refused to just QB sneak on the one yard line -- not once -- but twice -- on the same possession, and got stopped? That would have been the conversation if Oregon had won this game.
Both coaches made questionable choices, that had they worked out, would have been hailed geniuses. The mistakes of the winning coach aren't mentioned, but the loosing coach gets blasted... People saying Dan is Mario 2.0... no, Mario would have blamed the loss on the kicker for not making the field goal at the end of the game.
you are reasonable and fair-minded. Thank you.
Mike Elko is your guy for A&M
No matter what every year they crown USC as the best team at the beginning of the year. Rarely true.
