  1. I don't think the OP or 538 is arguing to go for it every time, rather there are gonna be times that you're better off going for 2 than 1, and perhaps an opportunity to give yourself an advantage that some coaches aren't taking.
  2. If I recall correctly, going for two on their last TD was the right call, but going for two in the ones prior are what all of the Ducks (my boss included) are upset about.
  3. Near the end of the game you always go for 2 when up by 4. No difference between 4 and 5 points, but 6 at least gives you a chance to block the extra point to stay tied.
  4. Their last coach is now at one of the best spots possible (Florida) after coaching at CSU for 3 years...
  5. Family planned trip a year ago that puts me in San Diego on the 27th. Gonna have to try and make it to the game.
  6. I'll be pleased if Riley lands us a Peyton Manning type "prima donna"
  7. Pro style, more run than pass, get WR the ball in space. He was quoted recently that they might be adding more spread sets to the offense next year at OSU to better suit the QBs they have coming up.
  8. IMO, Riley > Pelini as a game day coach and does a better job at coaching players up through the season. He is as good if not better than Bo with how liked he is by his players and their families. Is he a better recruiter? Don't know about that, but he is a damned good talent evaluator and took the dumpster fire that was Oregon St, and turned them into a team that consistently beat some big names (and had some really bad losses). I don't love the hire, but with the right coords (still hoping for Frost) and our resources, it's his shot to prove he is top coach (which I don't think he was ever going to have a chance to do at OSU).
  9. I'm shocked, but I'm going to support him. He is a man of integrity, and the least the "greatest fans in college football" can do is give the man a chance.
  10. Thanks, that was my idea. Confirmed! Knapp is the sock puppet!
  11. I'm over here on the west coast, and all I keep hearing is Scott Frost...oregon peeps are paranoid he is getting the gig and isn't going to have his entire focus on winning the nat champ. No one is talking about the sweater vest.
  12. Yes, this has been my biggest reason for wanting to move on, closely followed by the blowouts in big games.
  13. We have enough top tier talent to overcome our coaching staff against mediocre teams.
  14. The defense has been the sole good thing we've had this season. If we're replacing a coach, replace Beck. But Paps should be safe. 408 begs to differ
  15. PSA of the day: Loose: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/loose Lose: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/lose I believe one of the posts above had some sarcasm in it about being confused about the wording.
  16. I'm not even sure if recruiting is the issue. I see little player development, game to game, year to year. Sure, some players transcend, Suh, Abdullah, David, Prince, RG, but for the most part, Bo's teams don't improve much through the season. I bet if we play Minn at the beginning of the year, we win, by a good margin. They were able to coach their guys up, keep improving through the year, give a game to Ohio St. and beat us on the road.
  17. I think 7 years is enough time. The entire country sees the failure that is Bo. Money won't be an issue either and will help us land a name.
  18. You must not have watched the defense last week.
  19. Yeah, if he's ok with losing like this, year after year, he needs to be on the next Amtrak out of Lincoln.
