OREGON DUCKS vs BoiZe state LAS VEGAS BOWL

[wazzu31]

Not meaning to be an asshole but didn't even realize P5 schools played in bowl games before Christmas so I didn't even know about it. Was it at least a good game?

The senior running back, who owns nearly all of Oregon's rushing records, will not play in Saturday's Las Vegas Bowl, Oregon coach Mario Cristobal confirmed on Thursday.

"We have a very tight-knit group and we discussed it as a family," Cristobal said. "We're always making sure we communicate, so that decision is respected. It's something we spoke about early and a big part of that discussion was being able to respect the decision, always mutual respect."

i'm not surprised that they'd make a statement to the press like that, but let's be real here. if you actually think all those other oregon football players feel "warm and fuzzy" about this decision, you're kidding yourself.

I don't know how "all those other oregon football players feel", about Freeman's decision to not play. According to the coach, they were all on board for Freeman not playing.

Other than Boise’s 3 red zone turnovers with two of them going back to the house, Boise physically kicked the dog shit out of them.

i don't care that you don't know. it's irrelevant.

Is that supposed to mean something to me? That doesn't make it not a bitch move.

Cristobal and Oregon NEED to do what they can to keep Leavitt. Gotta keep this going!

You wanna keep this going? Lol

 

[Wild Turkey]

He is already gone. From that game he didn't put 5 minutes into a game plan or adjustments that he didn't have too, perfect example of phoning it in.

Okay it was a bitch move in your opinion. I get it.

 

[The Oldtimer]

i don't care that you don't know. it's irrelevant.

Okay, but it's relevant if his teammates were okay with him sitting out the game.

 

[theboardref]

Oregon is perpetually Boise States bitch it seems. What is that, 3 in a row?

 

[Ojb81]

Okay, but it's relevant if his teammates were okay with him sitting out the game.

and again, i'm not really buying that. what, you think the head coach is going to stand in front of the microphone and say, "ya know, i gotta say, we're pretty pissed off that he pulled this crap, but we'll let him hang out with us anyway, but screw him!" ...??

 

[TheDayMan]

No, objectively it is a bitch move. I get you want to defend it, but can't.

Thing is over by half, if you're in Vegas either enjoy the second half and Duck celebration, or go enjoy a show.

Skoooooooo all you want...I'm going to LOL.........

 

[trojanfan12]

Had to work and then attend the grandsons 7th birthday party, so I missed the game.

Anyone want to fill me in.


Wait!! Nvm, I'll just rtead the thread, I'm sure I'll get all the info I need and then some.

 

[The Oldtimer]

No, objectively it is a bitch move. I get you want to defend it, but can't.

I really don't want to either defend it or call it a bitch move. JMHO, but if Freeman's teammates and coaches are alright with it, then I really don't see a problem. Again, JMHO.

Okay you have your opinion and I can respect that. I'm moving on.

Yes I think it is 3 in a row. Boise State was ranked #25 and Oregon was unranked coming into the game today.

You don't have to call it a bitch move, selfish works too.
