Are struggling mightily right now getting beat 17-0 late in the second half..

The Ducks couldn't do no wrong when I was in Eugene last September jumping out to a 42-14 lead.

I was at the game in Eugene. No matter how many times it happens, our defense getting *****-slapped never stops being sickening. At the time I thought Oregon was that good. Now I know it was our defense was a dumpster fire for whatever reason.

Boise just outsmarted themselves with the Statue O Liberty, then came right back and are threatening to score.

Hoping so. I've got Oregon. Anybody else feel my pain. I didn't catch Royce not playing. Pool I'm in rewards early picks with factored bonus points. Ugh

I'm glad our pool doesn't start till December 26...

I would have taken the Ducks in this game.

Royce isn't playing to get ready for draft
most teams don't give a hoot about the bowl game. they care more about the bowl gifts. they are meaningless. just a vacation for the kids
therefore if one team actually wants to win.....they usually do

That is because they were playing an offense led by Danny Langsdorf and a defense led by Bob Diaco. That isn’t happening today in the bowl game. Winking

With you all the way man, including not hearing about the 11th rated RB in the draft sitting this one out. This game has been horrible to watch from our side.

What was successful there is now gone, it's safe to say the Bellotti regime is over..
And the uniform monopoly is over. Their uniforms look cheesy and superficial, now that they play like crap and are as stable as the ring of fire.

I disagree about that. Wins and losses in the bowl games matter for the coaches, the university, and heck conference prestige. If key players elect not to play it disrupts the team and makes it that much harder to compete. I'm actually worried that we will soon see a player opt out of a playoff game because he's already projected to be a top 5 pick. At that point college football is lost.

The universities should make scholarships contingent on the player being participating throughout the entire season, or being on the hook for the cost of tuition for that season.

I was in Vegas staying where the team was. Players in the casino the night before the game. Not saying they shouldn’t have been but it just struck me that having a Bowl game in Vegas could lead to some strange behavior.

Boise has a chip on their shoulder when they play a power five school and their fans are rabid about their football team and love to travel for bowl games. Always take Boise in a bowl game.
