[Justin Tyme]

Only thread I will post in out here.
It is going to be a track meet, Nike vs Adidas.

Oregon, home to more strip clubs than any other state.


OD, Who is your Daddy, currently?

Wasn't Oregon ranked and Nebraska unranked going into last year's game?

Uh, isn't that suppose to be a good thing? ::

Oregon can't even sell out their stadium so they resort to giving away tickets at Karaoke contests

My understanding is the tickets are for finishing second at karaoke.
First place gets a buy one, get one free Big Mac.

Pretty sure a Big Mac has no actual animal products in it.
Or is Vegan the one where you worship trees?

Got it.
I couldn't see 4 safeties so this makes more sense.

I don't know about worshiping trees because that place is on fire apparently?

 

[TheDayMan]

This is one of the best looking Game Threads I've ever seen

Agreed

You guys...they kicked a FG and went for 2 4 times but never got a TD...

Introduction: ITS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Since the Ducks were left in ruins with Chipper's leaving, they are trying out replacing coaches every 3-4 years to try to be more like Nebraska.

This is HOF stuff right here...

Useless Stats

Mike Riley is 2-0 vs the PAC 12 at Nebraska

Beat Virginia 44-26
lost to Colorado 41-38
lost to Washington 70-21

Notice a pattern?
2013 0 losses at home
2014 1 loss at home
2015 2 losses at home
2016 3 losses at home

Nebraska as a visiting team
2016 2-3
2015 2-3
2014 3-2
2013 3-1


B1G is currently 2-0 in away games in 2017
Michigan beat Florida in Texas
Maryland beat Texas in Texas

Darn it, this game should be moved to Texas.

2016 Oregon was ranked #22 coming into Lincoln to face an unranked Nebraska team. Lost the game and went on to a 4-8 season.
2017 both teams are unranked

2017 Nebraska no turnovers in a game where they played an FBS team
2017 Oregon lost two fumbles against an FCS team

Sacks allowed
Nebraska allowed one sack against an FBS team
Oregon allowed one sack against an FCS team

Penalties
Nebraska penalized for 75 yards
Oregon penalized for 115 yards

Sacks
Oregon had 5 sacks vs an FCS team
Nebraska had 1 sack vs an FBS team

Pretty much all statistics favor Oregon.

State Mottos
Nebraska Equality before the Law
Oregon Alis volat propriis?

At least Nebraska's is in English.

Seriously, I will take a wild guess that if I walked up to an Oregon fan and asked them the State Motto they would have no clue what it is or what it even meant. Unless they were a Catholic Priest. Words of wisdom here, never play Trivial Pursuit with a Catholic Priest, they always get the Latin Questions.

Fun facts

Oregon
Hells Canyon is 7993 feet deep created by Mother Nature
Carhenge created by a Drunk Nebraskan

I think Ducks win this one. 31-21.

C'mon man. I think that's stretching it a little bit.
Or is it???

 

[Skerpokes]

We need an air quality update

 

[Skerpokes]

Have they moved the location of this game yet? It has to be a serious health hazard for all involved.

Introduction: ITS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Glorious time! Oregon Ducks vs NEBRASKA CORNHUSKERS @ Eugene, Oregon on 09/09/17 @ 4:30 PM EST on Fox. Oregon comes into the game 1-0 and Nebraska also enters the game at 1-0. One of the top ten programs of ALL time vs the program of some good seasons in the last 15 years and really nothing else. NEBRASKA vs. Oregon. This is great. Place should be rocking given it will be half filled with Nebraska fans. Biggest non conference game for Oregon this season, but Nebraska already played Arkansas State last week. For info, no ranked # was given to Oregon in the title thread due to them not being good enough for a ranking hence the greater than (>) symbol. Nebraska also was not ranked, but might be after this game. Unless the pollsters figure it’s just win #2 against a mid-major.

Game Rundown: I know I just super hyped this game in the introduction section of this thread. But that is because I am so excited for the Nebraska win against Oregon I can not contain my excitement. The intensity in that introduction section is due to my excitement of Nebraska winning and not the competitive nature of this game. Nebraska is coached by Mike Riley, Oregon has a coach too I think. Since the Ducks were left in ruins with Chipper's leaving, they are trying out replacing coaches every 3-4 years to try to be more like Nebraska.

Huskers are either going to score their first TD very fast and then this thing just takes off from the gate, or they may score their first TD about 6 minutes into the game. Regardless, you will all see this thing slip out of the Ducks hands by the second quarter. Tre Bryant rushes all over the Oregon defense. Lee makes plays with his legs and arm. By halftime the Husker board will be a must visit and Nebraska will be fully on the radar for this season as yet again a contender. Trust me folks, this thing looks like a great game on the internet for SportsHoopla meltdowns alone. On the field Nebraska will remind Oregon that their trophy case will remain empty for another year. On the Hoop, @Brasky will be @OregonDucks daddy for yet another year.

Prediction:

#>25 OREGON 48

Nebraska 63
