Big 10 Championship ( #1 Oregon vs #3 Penn State)

[RDU VOL#14]

If we play Penn State in Neyland it might be a legit blood bath

If this game continues the way that it is, there needs to be a real discussion about that happening. Penn State hasn’t been anyone this season. No offense 207

 

[JCConners]

Neither one of these teams have a defense worth a damn

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

If Clemson destroys smu bama will get in smu will drop completely out

Oh well

 

[DaddyChad]

Oregon just doesn’t have it on defense to consistently stop anyoen

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

Duck D not in the same league with their O. Only thing keeping it reasonable.

 

[DaddyChad]

Penn state is a slightly better version of Iowa. Slow at a few positions.

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

Do we think it's weird there was never any chatter about Dillon Gabriel transferring to Tennessee over the last few years?

I think Heupel took almost the entire staff and I'm betting he didn't want to raid players also. Even in the shape we were in, it's a serious dick move to poach your old team's QB like Lincoln Riley.

After Gabriel transferred to OU(?) Heupel had started to get his recruiting focus on Nico.

Basically, though, Heupel isn't the dick a guy like Riley is.

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

Oregon could still screw this up

 

[DaddyChad]

Are you Fing kidding me? What is the secondary doing? Pathetic coverage

 

[rjd970]

You gotta think there is good news no matter what. If PSU gets ran over, and Clemson continues to roll SMU then either way the committee goes it’s good.

Punish SMU and push them out, they would need to drop PSU accordingly maybe giving us a home game.

Don’t punish either loser, and Clemson is in and Bama maybe out.

What would be BS is if they punish SMU leaving Bama in, and keep PSU above us.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I know Oregon is really good but PSU is not impressive in the slightest. I think we stand a better chance against them than OSU.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

Oregon reminds me of our ‘22 team. Offense is legit, but their defense is mid. Letting this putrid PSU offense hang around.

Bama will likely get in

Crap we don’t need Penn state to keep
It closer

'22 defense wasn't "mid"

It was ranked 90th IIRC.

 

[Zues1]

I can't stand looking at Penn State.
Then you add Franklin into it....

 

[rjd970]

Bama will likely get in

Then we should have a great shot at a first round home game.

 

[Wezcoast]

Choke time

 

[DaddyChad]

Damn it ducks you had one job.

 

[adam.vol]

James Franklin is “Mr. Better than average”.

Also, Oregon has a much worse SOS than Penn State. I thought Penn State might beat them with execution.

 

[DaddyChad]

Damn their defense is terrible against the run while also being awful against the pass

 

[JCConners]

He ranks up there with Drinkwitz and Day as a guy with a very punchable face

IDGAF about the rankings. I’m going off the eye test, and yeah they allowed a lot against Bama and USCjr, but they also held LSU and KY to peanuts.

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

Come on Ducks don’t wimp out now

That defense was booty. I've seen Army wives give up less
