Again, I have to say it, they know what play we are running before we even hike the ball. It's unreal. I swear to god, Knowles just sits around all year watching Oregon games.

Is Oregon trying to set some 4th down conversion record?
This T.O.P. is great for us. Like Stu just said, the stats are in our favor right now.

I realize it’s his Alma Mater but my God Blackledge, can you take about 25% off the fellating of every Penn State player and play result?

Iuli may be the reason we didn’t score on that drive with some pretty bad blocking effort on multiple plays. But so far ducks looking a little better, need to keep it up.
Moore definitely not as sharp as usual, needs to be a little calmer. Looked like he had Benson wide open on that 3rd down and probably could’ve ran for a first down too.

Meh, the stats were way in our favor against LSU in 2011 as well. Penn State will get in a rhythm and will thru be able to capitalize it better than Oregon has?

Penn state doing everything to keep the ball out of the Ducks possession. Ducks look better. Super stoked to see 2nd half adjustments. But, seriously, the Ducks look the better team at this point.

All of those yards and three points. I think we pop them hard in the second half.

So glad we're going up against a James Franklin coached team.

Another game where Stein underperforms versus top level competition. Offense is (still) geared around beating the hell out of bad teams. Far from optimal against actual contenders.

I agree will stein is not him. His scheme is not good enough to create imbalance in our favor. He’s too much of the put the ball in our playmakers but then if you beat your man you’re not getting many yards after catch. Lanning a problem is he’s too loyal to his staff and we’re too good for any of them to get fired.

I know I’m crazy but I completely agree. I feel like Stein gets timid on the big stage and his playcalling doesn’t allow the team to get in a rhythm and requires a high level of execution putting too much pressure on the players. We have had moments with solid playcalls that it felt like Oregon could keep momentum with only for the offense to slow down and follow that big gain with a pretty conservative one. Doesn’t feel like Stein’s playcalling capitalizes on momentum on the big stage.

You are all ridiculous. Keep in mind, the Ducks were Dogs, and they have played great. I cringe at your questioning of Stein, whom will be a HC next year. Just be happy we have Stein this year.

Agree. While this game frustrates me, I hoped we would dominate them to show the country we are the real deal, guys, we have lost, ONE GAME in like, two flipping years. Even I will take a chill pill.

Ok, I'll be the one to call a TD on this drive...
Pass to Benson.

Stein hasn't and isn't getting high level offers. Dillingham got poached after one year. Teams don't wait. Programs pay consultants to watch film during coaching searches, and Stein isn't grading out. He's average and benefiting from the top talent Oregon has. It's similar to what happened with Arroyo.
