Official Game Thread: Championship Game Oregon vs Ohio State. 8:30 PM

[TrueOrange]

Good point. Oregon's game is to score quickly and force you to play catch up by passing. They force a lot of turnovers as a result. Oregon really doesn't have a shut down defense.

Yeah. That's pretty much how they are. Becomes big if they can't stop you and they're actually forced to have to score each drive.

What's the over/under that Meyer makes lip to lip contact with his QB if they win????

Nah...Tebow is on the OSU sideline. Meyer won't cheat in public.

 

[TrueOrange]

Well, that stalled. Mariota's clearly uncomfortable.

 

[Dave1967]

Good job OSU defense!

 

[ChadFeldheimer]

Oregon has just not had a real good RB since the LaMichael James' days.

 

[Sandvol]

Can't tell if that threw them totally out of sync (by themselves) or if they just inferior to OSU.

Psychology such a huge part of the game. Especially with college kids.

 

[volfanhill]

So if Oregon had kicked the field goal earlier it's a one possession game still. That's why you take the points early.

 

[Lawrence Wright]

OSU D is wearing out Oregon's O.

Oregon was too tired to run tempo that last drive.

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

Lol

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I think ESPN can stop the "time between plays" ticker for Oregon.

Deanthony Thomas?

Can you hear the TV's all across the Eastern time zone turning off ? Halftime almost here, OSU dominant, ESPN begging to stay tuned, 10+ pm, work tomorrow...goodnight & good luck Ducks......GBO.....

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

Ohio St still not penalized in crucial situation. Oregon on their hand.....

 

[PKT_VOL]

It looks to be the latter as far as their defense matchup up with OSU's offense.

Psychology such a huge part of the game. Especially with college kids.

Both are good points. Hard to tell. Probably a little bit of both.

The network announcers clearly favor Oregon

 

[QuickSmurf]

Not tonight, my friend.

You guys give up so quickly. Its only the first half.

 

[Dave1967]

Oregon can't slow the OSU running game at all. That bodes doom for Oregon

 

[Sandvol]

This game's not over but that first possession of the second half is going to be big.

 

[TennMan101]

How is Cordale Jones their 3rd string quarterback!?!

 

[Madscientistvol]

Let's see if they can make some adjustments. We'll know shortly into the third if Oregon William e a chance to claw their way back in.

 

[Catbone]

Ohio State is the best team and Urban Meyer is the best coach in CFB.

Oregon doesn't need to be there playing like this sh**

 

[dduncan4163]

Claude have mercy Heather Cox is HOTT

 

[volfanhill]

The network announcers clearly favor Oregon

You think the former starting QB from OSU, who is announcing this game, is hoping Oregon wins? Doubt it.

 

[dduncan4163]

Going to be a wild second half

 

[CountryBoyBob454]

Dropped passes hurt the Ducks in that half. If they clean that up and start blocking on the edge they can make a game of this
