What happened to Ify? Feels like he was lockdown earlier in the year now feels like he gets picked on a lot and commits way too many penalties.

OK this drive definitely is bad. This is shocking to see but makes me wonder if we’d be better off if Tosh heads out after tonight and Hampton takes over.

I agree, the defense completely fell apart. Love what Tosh did for us, but go ahead and take off bro, because we do this against TT, its game over.OregonFan4Life wrote: Sat Dec 20, 2025 9:23 pm OK this drive definitely is bad.

Someone please explain how this team has fallen apart like this.

This is the laziest effort I’ve seen from a Lanning coached defense since the 2022 Civil War.bdkipe wrote:I am eating my words. Wow. Kind of a crappy end.

It's not about a single series or even a single play. And I know for certain Oregon is not trying to avoid scoring. Rather, as JMU is about to score yet again with 2 minutes left, it is about a complete lack of focus on both sides of the ball over the last 35 minutes of this game. This has become a regular thing in the past few years, as Lanning's teams seem to be unable to put together complete games for 60 minutes against inferior opponents.OregonFan4Life wrote: Sat Dec 20, 2025 9:18 pmIf it was tied and we needed to score do you think the drive would’ve looked like that? We saw that this offense could score at will. They are avoiding throwing down the field to keep Dante from being sacked and potentially injured and JMU is playing for pride not a win so they’re taking advantage of Oregon not calling plays to score because they want to score as much as possible so they can pat themselves on the back in the locker room.rodentslayer wrote:Looks like all the starters are still in the game on offense, yet we are not close to executing at the level of the first half. Insanely checked out right now. Not sure how you fix this in the short term, though, as it's happened time and time again. Again, for a program that supposedly has national title aspirations this isn't going to cut it. We looked fabulous in the first 25 minutes of the game, but that switch was flipped off for good just before halftime.

Maybe they figure out that they need to keep a laser focus for the entire 60 minutes against Texas Tech or else suffer an embarrassing loss. They might well do that. But games like tonight make it clear that this is far from a sure thing.

Just heard from a friend at the fans James Madison fans are talking a ton of trash and have been trying to start fights and multiple JMU fans have been escorted out due to aggressive behavior. That’s pretty sad.

And Barnett walks in for a TD to cap a 99 yard drive. That's called a complete mental meltdown by a team that is probably not going to beat their next opponent. This was the worst half of football the Ducks played all season, getting outscored 28-17 and only managing that 17 because the JMU punter kicked the ball into his own player's cheeks.

They deserve to talk smack after this. Their team came in and thoroughly outplayed the Ducks, the score notwithstanding.OregonFan4Life wrote: Sat Dec 20, 2025 9:29 pm Just heard from a friend at the fans James Madison fans are talking a ton of trash and have been trying to start fights and multiple JMU fans have been escorted out due to aggressive behavior.

At this point it’s so out of character it’s not concerning. Oregon clearly checked out at halftime. Thats the only logical explanation. It reminds me of the 4th quarter of the 2022 Civil War. It’s just so night and day from the 1st half.

They scored a bunch of garbage TD’s after getting owned, they have no right to talk trash and trying to start fights at a football game is stupid no matter what.rodentslayer wrote:They deserve to talk smack after this.

Lanning has a lot of work this week. This was a total meltdown.

We allowed more than 500 yards. What the hell?
