National Championship Game Open Thread
January 10th, 2011 at 9:15 PM ^
This is the kind of offense that I love. Quick, short hitting passes out to the edge. Rod and Magee ran it occasionally, especially near the end of games and I was starry-eyed for it. Wish we had ran it more often.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:16 PM ^
Looks like Oregon is starting to make some nice offensive adjustments.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:17 PM ^
Was that legal?
January 10th, 2011 at 9:18 PM ^
to win.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:18 PM ^
Why does the duck have paws?
January 10th, 2011 at 9:20 PM ^
Kinda like chicken fingers.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:22 PM ^
To masturbate.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:59 PM ^
Better Answer.
January 11th, 2011 at 1:22 AM ^
I liked your answer better. More witty. And a better play on words.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:19 PM ^
Oregon hybrid pawed duck.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:20 PM ^
Does Oregon have to pay royalties to Disney for the use of Donald Duck?
January 10th, 2011 at 9:20 PM ^
Les Miles?
January 10th, 2011 at 9:21 PM ^
the whole timing of this feels way to slick. wish DB would focus more on getting the best coach then keeping the Michigan brand in the spot light.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:24 PM ^
I think right now, Miles makes the most sense. He'll keep the old-guard happy and doesn't seem set to a specific offense, which will help to maintain what RR started. Hoke would be another 2-3 years of "getting his guys" into the system.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:24 PM ^
Just missed 2 min of the game.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:25 PM ^
Looked like a legit int to me, but of course these are B1G officials, so they'll probably call a PI.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:25 PM ^
I think the call on the field will stand.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:25 PM ^
Is every game not involving a Big Ten team ref'd by Big Ten refs this year?
January 10th, 2011 at 9:28 PM ^
Has way too much of a cushion.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:29 PM ^
I have a bad feeling that Auburn is going to win this game despite Oregon probably running them off the field for long swaths of the game. Oregon really should have 10-14 points.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:29 PM ^
I swear that was Ray Vinopal that got shook for that TD.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:30 PM ^
Herp derp Oregon. Come on guys, stop trying to look like Michigan.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:30 PM ^
Oregon is trying to be WAY too tricky here. That was a horrible call.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:30 PM ^
So, Chip Kelly doesn't give a fuck.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:31 PM ^
You know, this could be a game if Oregon would stop outsmarting themselves when they have the ball.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:31 PM ^
WHITE BOY!!
January 10th, 2011 at 9:31 PM ^
needs to quit it with the trick plays.
Anyone else think their unis look derivative of WVU's coal-miner inspired look? With a homage to '80's era neon leg warmers.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:31 PM ^
Now that was a nice pass. Let's see if Oregon can pop it in now.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:34 PM ^
That's what she said.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:33 PM ^
And Thomas finally throws a pass that isn't caught by either team.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:34 PM ^
I agree with Herbie. They need to quick playing cute and do what they're good at.
Edit: Maybe I should have finished fast forwarding before commenting.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:33 PM ^
Thomas picked one hell of a night to have his worst game of the year.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:34 PM ^
So Auburn got caught trying to sub out a d-lineman..
If you are so tired you can't run off the field, and you play in the SEC (so leave morals out of this equation) .. why not just roll over with a 'cramp'.. you have to sit out the next play, but you would have anyways... Plus all your exhausted teammates get a breather?
Seems obvious enough, actually surprised its not standard practice against hurry up teams.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:35 PM ^
Thomas looks horrible...Or maybe I'm just used to Denard QBing.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:35 PM ^
Call.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:36 PM ^
That was awesome.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:37 PM ^
No way. So, Chip Kelly doesn't give a fuck. I'll say it again.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:37 PM ^
With the Ducks getting 3....
January 10th, 2011 at 9:37 PM ^
Chip Kelly has them.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:38 PM ^
January 10th, 2011 at 9:40 PM ^
Until it doesn't work.
Really, the SEC speed shit? Ugh. Drink.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:38 PM ^
Looked like a knee was down on the 2pt conv. Might've gotten away with one.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:38 PM ^
Just like that... Oregon FTW.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:40 PM ^
Did his dad's church not get the down payment on a new wing?
January 10th, 2011 at 9:41 PM ^
Am I the only one who thinks SEC speed is bullshit. The SEC is the strongest conference, but it's because they can find really big lineman that can move and sign half-again as many of them as any other conference's teams can.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:45 PM ^
I heard the SEC was 4-4 in bowl games so far. A win by Oregon would put a big smile on my face. I hate that SEC crap.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:49 PM ^
Kentucky lost on Saturday.
January 10th, 2011 at 9:42 PM ^
Does Oregon go for 2 on the first score of every game?
January 10th, 2011 at 9:42 PM ^
this year?
January 10th, 2011 at 9:46 PM ^
Lost 17-24 to go 7-1 on the season.
