Went into the first 12 team playoff with wins over four of the other teams in the playoff. Fun and exciting season, I can’t wait until next year. We had a terrible game and lost…… until next year! GO DUCKS!

I think it's easy to lose perspective after such an embarrassing and disappointing performance in the Quarterfinal, but college football is a stupid, silly, and messy sport. Had this been in the BCS-era, Oregon takes on Georgia, winner take all, for the Natty. Had we had *this* team last year, we're likely in the 4-team playoff and Ohio State would have been left out. It's the life of an Oregon-sports fan to have an undefeated squad not only have to win 3 playoff games but go through that seeding.
