I think what this game shows is that Oregon is not a legitimate contender. Even if they do manage to snag a playoff spot, which is very far from certain, they won't be going far in the post-season. I wish it were otherwise, but this team has too many holes both on the field and on the sidelines.

This reminds me of the Rose Bowl. We are getting outcoached and embarrassed. Indiana is doing whatever they want to.
Outside of the pick six, Indy has owned the Ducks.
When ohio state loss to us last year, they strengthened their weaknesses and got progressively better throughout the year to win the natty. Lets see if we can do the same. As we are clearly not a natty team at the moment.
Offense has only scored 13 points at home through 3. That is egregiously awful. This isn’t Ohio State we are playing. 2 weeks to prepare, and it seems the coaches took the time to take a vacation. Lanning better get better, cuz they sucked wind this week. They got their asses handed to them by a better coach. Lots of sh*t to fix. LOTS OF SH*T.

And our biggest fear came true tonight. Moore looked like a deer in headlights. He has no clue what to do. Tonight was UCLA Moore. I was afraid of this.

Defense has played well enough to win. But the offense... sheesh. I know lots of folks here like Will Stein, but I wasn't a fan last year, I definitely wasn't a fan after the Rose Bowl, and I haven't been a fan during conference play this season either. Just far too many games over the past two years where our offense craps the bed despite having elite talent. Just very little rhythm. Or it seems like our offense finds the weakness in the other team's D, but instead of attacking those weaknesses the playcalling gets cute and goes away from what works. Lanning seems pretty loyal to him, but if what we've seen over the first few conference games continues then I hope Lanning has the stones to make the right decision in the offseason.
