GO OREGON DUCKS

:woohoo:

Let the trash talking resume.

the words to the fight song are archaic and stiff, except for that last line.

Go Ducks! I'm so excited.

There is no place like Nebraska
Dear old Nebraska U
Where the girls are the fairest
The boys are the squarest
Of any old place that I knew

Just so we don't have to hear about SEC football superiority again...

It just is, it doesn't matter whether you hear about it or not.

Holy cow, what a stinkeroo! Both Arkansas and Ohio State should be thanking the good lord above that they didn't have to face Boise State or any other team that's mastered the defense of that new-fangled forward pass thingie. Terrelle Pryor would have had five or six of those fluttering throwaways cheerfully taken away by any competent cornerbacks or safeties. Luckily, he was playing against an SEC team that seemed bamboozled by the sight of an airborne football.

...and congrats to them on their win from an Arkansas fan, would have handed Boysy State their ass on any given day. When Boysy state actually plays someone, and wins, let me know. Thanks.

Including last year when they won the Pac-10 championship. Also Boise State held Oregon's offensive production to their lowest yard total last season. Or what about Oklahoma w/ Adrian Peterson a few years ago?

And bring tissues to the game.

... when I was in Eugene for business and played tourist around their campus a few years back. I started loving the Ducks since then.

I'd love to get more socks, too, as they were comfy.

Are they a dance troup at Disneyland or something?

you sound goofy......

War Eagle, fly down the field
Ever to conquer, never to yield!

Fight on you Orange and Blue!

Go! Go! Go! On to victory

War Eagle, win for Auburn
POWER OF DIXIELAND!!!

:P

WAR EAGLE is the battle cry. Long story.

There used to be a live Golden Eagle at home
games. That was way cool.

These days?

Only to irritate 'Bama fans.

Stuffed and trussed and ready for cookin'.

sP

Ice cold gin, makes you wanna win
Ice Cold Duck, makes you wanna . . . SCORE!

Just thought it was time for this thread to get back to the top of the forum.

And with a 20th reply, set it on fire!

Go Ducks.

The Quack Attack is Back!

:woohoo:

If it can't be Cal, I'm glad it's U of O!

I was half-watching the fourth quarter, and thought to myself, "Boy, Oregon sure milked the clock on that last drive. What'd they eat up, five minutes?" I checked the ESPN account the next day: Oregon held the ball for the last 9:26 of the game! Damn! I mean, there's milking the clock, letting the air out of the ball, and putting the ball in the deep freeze. Running off the last nine minutes is pouring liquid nitrogen on that sucker.

Chip Kelly's motto

Win The Day

I gotta say that the local newspapers have done a fabulous job of keeping the fans stoked, and feeding in-depth coverage every day for weeks now. Full-page posters in the newspaper (two are taped to my wall), commentaries, historical perspective, stats, interviews....good job by The Oregonian and Portland Tribune.

I'm ready. Cleared the schedule for today. Got a crockpot of chili for supper.

WIN THE DAY!

He has been so successful at keeping attention focused on the game at hand. Now this is it.

I've had on 95.5 FM on for the last week and they have talked nothing but Ducks the entire time -- except for the occasional interruption of a Jail Gansta game, and that Seahawk gem of course.

I'm nervous as hell, but I think Chip Kelly has a plan and that the Ducks are grossly underestimated, by everybody, just like Kelly wants it.

GO DUCKS, WIN DUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last year, Oregon wasn't ready and didn't play up to their capability at the Rose Bowl. Ohio State served them their heads on a platter, thanks to a career game from Mr. Tattoo. If the Ducks come out from the opening kick ready for action, I think Auburn is in for a long night.

In my opinion, the best thing for the Oregon defense is to look to contain Newton, and force the ball out of his hands on pass plays. The Ducks can play pass defense, and if Newton isn't razor sharp with his throws, look for an interception or two. Newton is most dangerous when he can't find a receiver and does find a hole in the pass rush. Keep him contained in the pocket and the Ducks will be well on the way to victory. Easy to say, may not be easy to do.

When Newton does break contain, the Ducks have to flock (pardon the expression) to him, and get two or three guys on him for the tackle. Oregon has good fundamentals, but Newton is a strong guy and all the help any tackler can get will be welcome.

If Auburn catches Oregon flat, they can run up a good lead. Against this edition of Oregon, though, that may not be enough. Auburn will also have to avoid turnovers, and hold their own on special teams. If the Ducks get a couple of good returns, either for touchdowns or setting up the offense with a short field, Auburn will be in big trouble.

Cliff Harris is a scary good return guy/defensive back. Hopefully we'll get some razzle dazzle from him. And Darron Thomas for being such as young guy doesn't seem to know or care that he's supposed to be nervous on this big stage. He's as cool as a cucumber. And Oregon has seemed to start slow, especially in the later games. They were only ahead of the Beavs by a couple of points at half, seemed to let people hang around. It's in the second half after their speed and stamina have worn the other team down that they start breaking big plays and blowing games open. Here's hoping they can hold with Auburn in the 1H and do their thing in the 2H.

Just some thoughts.

:cry:

KY wildcat here! keep it in the "sec family" auburn! woo hoo!!! go tigers!!!

represent!

A level of play they are unaccustomed to.

Ya know, you sound like my brother (a rabid Bama
fan). Giving Auburn credit in a backhanded way.

Well done, my friend.

And........WAR DAMN EAGLE!!!!!

My son is an alum.

I was actually rooting for the Ducks, and thought they had a shot at it. Oh well, congrats to Auburn, as hard as that is to say!
