Algae Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Yeah but it feels like I am 12 years old waiting for christmas morning to arrive...lol I am counting the hours! Wanna see our spread offense come through with completions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael7979 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I am counting the hours! Wanna see our spread offense come through with completions. I think that D. Paulsen will get alot of small completions in the middle. He could end up with 8-12 catches for about 80-90 yds. Since I believe Auburn is going to cheat to the outside to help cover all our speed on the edges! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowpunk Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Just to ease your minds a little over the cam thing. Everyone says there isn't a QB like him anywhere(true) and he is bigger than anyone out there. Looking at stats, I found Nick Foals is 1" shorter and 10 lbs less. That seems like a pretty good fit for size if you ask me. I realize he isn't close to cam in style but he is good and this helped ease my mind a little about them facing such a big QB. I already thought they would win but this just helps it even more knowing that they have in fact seen this size QB before...

Smann Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Hey I dont even watch college football and I thought that was a great game, on both sides! great job on the referees also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgf86123 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Dude, the refs pretty much gave that game to Auburn, I've never seen so many missed fouls, and I only watched about 15 minutes of the game LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Nah Mick I thought the refs did a decent job. There were a lot of missed holding calls but on both sides of the ball. I'm for letting them play. It was a way more exciting game then last years but man those Auburn players like to play dirty... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael7979 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I really don't mind if the refs let them play and not call everything. But you can't slap players in the head or pull on the helmet to tackle them and Auburn did it repeatly to DT and LaMichael. And Oregon stopped/slowed Newton- compare his numbers to his game averages- he didn't have a "normal" game. And was showing he took some punishment. The Ducks never caught a break! Which led to a score or a continued drive, Auburn did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Oh I agree Michael, Auburn played dirty and they got called for it a few times. The Ducks had their chances it just didn't fall their way. It started with failure to score a TD with 4th and goal in their first drive, the interception in the red zone, then the safety when they had stopped Auburn on the goal line and then the failure to convert 4th and goal . Both Auburn and the Ducks had good defenses and the Ducks really had to be perfect and make the most of every opportunity which unfortunately did not happen. I hate that the game was decided on that lame running play at the end where the player was not called down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XrayGuy Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 It probably would have gone to OT if that guy was ruled down cuz they were out of FG range. Oh well, it was a good game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I still think Auburn probably would have marched down the field and scored to win as they had been moving the ball pretty well. I was afraid of that when the Ducks tied it up and there was still over 2 minutes left. They were both good football teams. All I can say is I do believe the 2 best football teams were actually in the BCS title game (which doesn't always happen as everyone knows )and it was a hard fought battle. I can't say the same for my Aggies who got their butts handed to them in their bowl game. With that Auburn defense (I didn't know big guys could move like that), Oregon needed to get points every time they had a chance in the red zone and sadly that didn't happen. Bummer.... their appears to be a dark cloud of disappointment hanging over Oregon right now but I'm still proud of how far the Ducks have come.

impur Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 Auburn only had 3 drives the entire 2nd half that went past the Ducks 40. One they got 3 pts, one they got stopped on 4th down at the 1, and then that last drive which would have kept them out of field goal range had he been tackled. Gotta play to the whistle. The Ducks had 3 chances to score in this game and all 3 came up with a combined 0 pts. Kick 1 FG and the game is changed. The most telling thing to me was the play calling in the 1st quarter. Chip gave up running the ball even before the game started, he just handed that part of our game to Auburn. Then when he realized maybe we can run against them, its 5min into the 3rd quarter and too late to establish that part of your game. Got out coached a 2nd year in a row...... But it was an entertaining game. The Ducks completely shut down Cam, just had too many mistakes to overcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
