Game Thread: #<23 OREGON DUCKS vs Nebraska Cornhuskers 3:30 PM EST ABC

[OregonDucks]

One more stop and TD by Oregon and this thing will be in the bag.

I am not surprised Riley and Co couldn't figure out our 2 pt conversion play. We just ran it on them for 7 straight years.

 

[Great Dayne]

Nebraska has proven so far they cant stop Freeman.

Prukop can do what he wants to their defense.

They are too slow for Brooks James

This game is going to be over as fast as Oregon's offense.

Agreed, just don't throw at #25 and Oregon should have no problem driving down the field.

 

[OregonDucks]

Get ready folks. This thing could get ugly real real fast.

Nebraska fans will be reminded of their 2001 Colorado debacle.

 

[The Derski]

I told people Colorado could make a game in Michigan. Too bad it's on BTN

How Oregon wins

Fly sweeps
Bombs to the fast wide receivers

I don't know enough about the Oregon Defense. The Oregon defense will not stop the Nebraska offense, but Tommy Armstrong will probably make a bonehead play or two. Tommy Armstrong is capable of playing spectacularly and also having playing like a horse's ass.

Nebraska has a good passing game, a good running game, and a pretty good kicker. Nebraska punting sucks. Nebraska punt returns are exceptionally boring unless Demornay Pierson El can find his freshman season fireworks.

How Nebraska wins

Stops those two Oregon plays, fly sweeps and bombs.
Pass Rush. Lots of it. Too bad Nebraska doesn't seem to have it.

I doubt Nebraska can cover Devon Allen on a fly route. Staying 20 yards back to stop the fly leaves the short routes open all day long.

Nebraska is pretty stout if you run up the middle, but if Oregon goes out on the edge with Freeman, then it could be Melvin Gordon all over again.

The good news, Prukop is not a running threat. But he can throw.

Nebraska will get points, but I do not think they will keep up with Oregon unless Nebraska can get in the backfield before Prokup hands to Freeman or gets to throw a pass.

If Nebraska can consistently pressure Prokup then it just might be a win for Nebraska.

I pick Oregon with a win by 10 or less.

What I wrote for Nebraska to do to win.

They are doing the opposite. Oregon got to the edge and scored. Nebraska has absolutely, positively no pass rush. Prokup can stand there all day and then decide to scramble. Banker sucks.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Yeah, when you run a trick play 2 point conversion in the first quarter, it lets me know that you're not a serious natty contender.

 

[Great Dayne]

Great Dayne just comes in dropping bombs

Dang straight more bombs than Curry did on the Badgers.

Except for Freeman is out, like a pussy.

 

[romeo212000]

The fuck was that?

 

[OregonDucks]

Man I thought that Oregon D was bad.

Told you all.

 

[Great Dayne]

BUAHAHAHAHAA, as I said no run game and a pathetic QB for Nebraska.

 

[Deep Creek]

Generals

 

[OregonDucks]

make Armstrong throw!

Game over with a TD here.

 

[OregonDucks]

Can anyone believe Armstrong is like a 3 year starter?

That is seriously the best product at the most important position at Nebraska....Shows how far a program has fallen if that is the best they have.

 

[Brasky]

Been starting slow all year.

 

[Great Dayne]

OMG, that was the worst pass I've ever seen. BUAHAHAH Oregon might win by 30+

 

[TheDayMan]

Yeah, when you run a trick play 2 point conversion in the first quarter, it lets me know that you're not a serious natty contender.

Something a team that might make it there once or twice only to be embarrassed would do

 

[OregonDucks]

IF Freeman is out that sucks, but Brooks-James is the fast speedy back we need to run around these big slow Nebraska defenders.

Add the dimension of Prukop being dual threat and no way Nebraska is able to contain this offense all game. Still amazed we were able to get 2 pts on them...LOL

 

[Great Dayne]

MVP for the Corn rolls is the Punter so far. Oregon about to go up 16-0

It's early, please don't let 8 minutes of play provide you with conclusion of game
