I like the fact that Dallas Wilson canceled his Florida visit over the weekend, so he wasn’t there for the Ole Miss game. And I think he’s trying to get out to Eugene for the I-5 rivalry game this weekend as well. 🦆🦆
Kinda thinking a competitive B10 championship with a close Oregon loss could be a sneaky good scenario. #5 seed.. actually looking like a sweet playoff path.
Vegas consensus is currently projecting Oregon 35, Washington 16. That seems way too big a spread, considering (1) Washington's rivalrous motivation and spoiler mentality, (2) the Oregon offense's season-long hot-cold play, and (3) the Oregon defense's inconsistency against the run and tendency to give up third-and-long conversions ... ... Reasons for optimism: (1) Rivalries go both ways; (2) the return of Tez Johnson and Marcus Harper should help; and (3) Oregon's excellent third-down defense against Wisconsin could translate into the bigtime running and hitting necessary to contain physical freaks like Jonah Coleman and Demond Williams.
Add to that Dan Lannings need to make certain that Oregon emerges from this game with as many of his best players healthy as possible. I'd bet he'd be happy with a 3 point win - just as long as no important injuries are incurred. 24-13 Oregon would be more than enough - screw the 19 pt. cover.
Hoping backups are in mid 3rd quarter. Health of starters is more important than blowing Washington out. In the grand scheme of things a win is all that really matters.
2024 Turkey day weekend. Another 12 year streak starts Saturday. That 12 game winning streak by Oregon, is the longest in this rivalry.🎉A prayer of Thanksgiving to everyone.🎉Go Ducks. ❤Blessed is the Nation whose God is the Lord. Psalm 33:12. the Bible.
Hey Spence, when are you and Roman doing the locked on crossover??? I love your show..... but absolutely love watching you two together! You can kinda feel the fan animosity between you two!!! Also love the locked on BiG squad, with your ducks throw pillow!!! Priceless buddy!!!
I said it before the season started and I stand by it, the winner of the National Championship is likely gonna be a top 4 seed. I really do believe the big ten championship is essentially the national championship this year. The winner of that game will have a inside track to the natty in a huge way. The loser will have a steep climb back just to get a rematch. Do we really wanna play Boise State in a rematch instead of getting healthy and studying opponents? NO! Win the BIG, Win the natty!
I totally agree, I think we are gonna see the ducks play the buckeyes, possibly lose, play them again on the same side of the bracket in the semis, win, then watch them crush Georgia in Atlanta to full circle, three year, perfect balance story. Dan lanning started these three years losing to Georgia in Benz in their first game, he’ll finish these three with a win over Georgia in Benz. Ferguson, Bassa, and several others were at that game. They remember.
A team that is gunning for a natty NEEDS to build momentum as the season comes to a close. Ohio St had a big win over Indiana. Texas is looking tough. Get off to a fast start. Build the juice.
I’m a show behind because of thanksgiving week, so I apologize in advance if you answer this today. I watched the playoff rankings come out last night and had a lot of thoughts. 1, It would not be the end of the world to lose in the conference title game and be the 5 seed and have chances are the easiest path to the title. 2, do you think they should reseed after the 1st round to ensure the 1 seed gets the most favorable path as a result of being the 1 seed ? Just didn’t look right last night seeing it all lay out. Thanks Spencer! Cannot wait to play UW this weekend and get this loss out of our head.
"All we need is Oregon to win and then beat Ohio." -Jj6004-n1e Sorry to break it to you, but I'm afraid that's simply impossible. Ohio is the odds-on favorite to win the conference for a reason. ... But the good news is: They play in the MAC, not the Big Ten, so Oregon doesn't need to worry about them. Ducks would be 24-point neutral site favorites over the Bobcats, anyway.
@ are you dumb or dumb ? You seem like the type to change everything in your own narrative so let’s get this straight because for me Ohio is the nut crackers idk who this other Ohio is and secondly osu stands for Oregon state university
Brandon Finney sounds like he’s gonna stick. Offord is leaning Auburn unfortunately. Stewart is the interesting recruitment…it’s gone really quiet despite the smoke to U$C that I’m just not buying. Stewart is the one I want most other than keeping our current commits. Keep Wilson and Finney, add Stewart and I’d be ecstatic
Might be controversial but I'd say that if Oregon only wins one more game this year, (if it's this next one) then the 2024-25 season has been a immensely successful one. Finish the regular season in the Big-10 undefeated and regardless of what happens afterwards then this season was a great one. Anything after is icing on an already delicious cake. GO DUCKS !
Just win and avoid injuries DO NOT worry about running up the score.This is not a rivalry-do not make a big deal of this game just win OR 27 WA 10. Do Not make a big deal of this
@mic982@@thomasorzack5795 "If Oregon only wins ... this next one ... then the 2024-25 season has been a (sic) immensely successful one." -mic982 That's not controversial; that's plain wrong. Preseason consensus ranked Oregon in the #3 to #5 range, meaning the Ducks need to make the final four just to hold serve. Losing the rematch with Ohio State and then getting bounced at Autzen by the #12 seed would be a massive disappointment relative to preseasons expectations. And tomasorzack5795, I agree. "Faceless opponents" is definitely the way to go. It's the NFL mentality.
@@Infiltrate.and.Betray Maybe it's just me but I would never base a successful season on what some faceless cfb pundits and writers "predicted" with a "preseason consensus". Just go and look at that "preseason consensus" and compare it to the current rankings now and you'll see how fallacious that is.
Spencer Playoff Scenario: I know we’d beat asu before we beat the dawgs, but Would u rather play potentially a Georgia rematch at the Rose Bowl for the vibes, or play Kenny Dillingham at Autzen for the 5 vs 12 game?
Excuse to lose this game? Excuse to not blowing this team out. UW got pasted two weeks ago 35-6 at Penn State. They also got crushed by Iowa 40-16. If we don’t blow them out I will feel really concerned going up against the Buckeyes.
Wisconsin got pasted three weeks ago 42-10 at Iowa. They also got crushed by Nebraska 44-25. Oregon didn't blow them out. You should feel really concerned going up against the Buckeyes. They will be a 5- to 6- point favorite even if the Ducks do well against the Huskies. And speaking of your expectations for the Washington game: History shows that rivalry games tend to be close, even when one team is up while the other is down. Prepare accordingly.
Tebow & Leinhart were lefty QB's too, if you'll remember.... Yet your mind goes back to Canfield!? :-) If it's a regional thing though, it all comes back to Tony Graziani
Haha well Canfield is etched into my viewing memory more cause Beavs are the Beavs and Leinhart was before (tho I vaguely remember) Tebow was elite but never played Oregon
Not move, no. I go back to Oregon all the time and have an office setup at another house that isn't mine (I move a lot especially in the summer and will have various backgrounds from May-August)
basic auto-bids, (just to get in the playoffs like in basketball for the tournament) are not necessarily ridiculous.... Getting a bye and a high seating that you don't deserve, automatically....Because you won your conference... Now that is ridiculous!
My score prediction: 45-10. If it's anything closer than 31-17, I'd be shocked. Washington is that mid-at-best golfer who struts around acting like he's elite after getting lucky and catching all the breaks in one round. With DeBoer/Penix/Odunze/etc, said golfer hit a stupid-lucky hole in one and the gloating was at an all-time high... but now that moment has come and gone and it's back to mediocrity again. 😁
"My score prediction: 45-10. If it's anything closer than 31-17, I'd be shocked." -tc16169 What was your score prediction for the Wisconsin game? Were you shocked? ...

I don't think there is Duck fan on Earth, who wants this win more than Coach Lanning.
None of it MATTERS if we WIN. KEEP WINNING. If we go undefeated, nobody can say shiiiii
Jahkeem Stewart is the guy I want the ducks to get so bad. Offord would be dope but I’ve accepted he isn’t flipping to us. Currently predicted Auburn
Do we see a full 3rd quarter from the Oregon ducks? Can we play four full quarters
Let’s just be happy with the results for a change
Hoping backups are in mid 3rd quarter. Health of starters is more important than blowing Washington out. In the grand scheme of things a win is all that really matters.
@@michaelsmith9235 seeing Oregon play a full game is results
@@nickfleming4757 also covering the spread and winning by a comfortable margin would be nice

Yeh looks like you touched on this at the end.. definitely something to think about. Can we play anyone else than Ohio state three times !? Good god
Going to talk about this more next week.

Dillingham at Autzen because it's an easier game to win

Illini are good.

vernon adam’s jr is a lefty😭
Go Dawgs!
I think the committee puts ND in the 5 seed, and the B1GCCG lost gets the 6 seed to split Oregon and Ohio State in the bracket.
I hope that is the case.
Good no need to play OSU 3 times in one season-Get #6 Seed that is not bad
🦆☝️
Odd question. Did you move? Noticed your background is different.
Not move, no. I go back to Oregon all the time and have an office setup at another house that isn't mine (I move a lot especially in the summer and will have various backgrounds from May-August)
5 seed is not as good as the 6th seed which is much better as you don't have to play the #1 team on your side of the bracket
No. We don't even need to win. In fact, being the 5th seeded team would be most beneficial.
Wrong. Adding another game on your schedule no matter who you play is another 60 minutes for key players to get injured.
Lefty QB... Penix comes to mind. We couldn't beat him.
Too recent to be an OG memory
basic auto-bids, (just to get in the playoffs like in basketball for the tournament) are not necessarily ridiculous.... Getting a bye and a high seating that you don't deserve, automatically....Because you won your conference... Now that is ridiculous!
Lefty QB college Matt Leinart pro Michael Vick
Leinart, good pick. Slightly before my most crystalized CFB viewing age
