duckgrad...u r startin to come around....good job..keep it up..have faith and lets help the team kick some bucknut ass....

I hope our team doesn't think like that. The reason for all of the regular season games is to reach and win this one.

I'm sure our team doesn't think like that... We can though because what we think will have no bearing on the game. Now if we were the team and Chip caught one of us talking like that he would probably have us on the first flight back home.

I don't think there is one ounce of let down on this team. This is the first time I can remember being comfortable saying that about the Oregon ducks!!

They layoff is worrying me. I was very confident about the Boise State game.... and look how that turned out. I REALLY like this match up and think we should do really well. It is funny how after 30 days of reading about how wonderful Ohio States Defense is that it is actually starting to get me nervous.

I have seen Ohio State play and they looked pretty average. The Michigan game was a good example. It was painful to watch. Michigan is terrible and they only won that game 21-10. They picked off a terrible freshman QB 4 times and could still only muster up 21 points against a terrible Michigan defense.

In that game Pryor only passed for a whopping 67yds and rushed for 74 more.

I hate to get overconfident but I really think we will blow them out.

Its like your in my head!!!!! Especially the part about not being worried. Until I read all the hype about how good they are even though I watched them several time and was never impressed.

Same here. I watched several anOSU games this year and never really tought they were dominant. They simply beat teams with woeful offenses.

My order of flat out worry leading up to this year's games:

Purdue: How would they respond to Boise St.?
Cal: When will they start clicking?
OSU: I SO BADLY want to smell roses!
USC: After all, it is the mighty Trojans
Arizona: Best team in the Pac-10, possible RB berth on the line
tOSU
Stanford: Crap, they're playing well!

In terms of my flat-out worry before a game, I would put tOSU between the Arizona and Stanford games.

Oregon might win by a wide margin, but you don't go to the rose bowl if you aren't a very good team. I wouldn't underestimate Ohio State.

Well, we are outta here in a couple of hours...C y'all down in sunny SoCal......
GOOOOOOOOOOO Ducks

Tell that to Illinois from 2 rose bowls ago. Same with last years Penn St team. IMO its been awhile since theres been a quality opponent from the big10 in the rose bowl.

Ever since we knew the pac10 winner would play tosu I've been very confident. It's who I would've hand picked to play if given the choice. A vastly overrated soft, slow team from the big10. A team that we can easily beat but still get tons of credit for beating because they're "THE ohio st university". I CANNOT wait for the licking we are going to put on these losers.

go ducks!!!!

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh it's time!

Go ducks!

lol @ what my beaver friend is saying..
"Im just tired of people acting like this is a national title game. The ducks are playing against a OSU team who is missing many key players. I at least didnt expect to win the las vegas bowl because BYU knows how to play in las vegas. If the Ducks lose this game id say they blew it. Be pretty sad to be 0-8 career against the buckeyes."
