@TrentKingston@JamesCrepea BYU has had two bye weeks in the middle of their conference play. They don't have to go longer than playing 3 consecutive weeks in conference play.
In 2011-2012 @edsbs's position was that opposing teams should simply not play 3rd quarters with Oregon. A dozen years on and the Ducks have decided to adopt that approach themselves.
2024 Oregon Ducks scoring:
1st Qtr: 76 pts.
2nd Qtr: 108 pts.
3rd Qtr: 29 pts.
4th Qtr: 84 pts.
5 games with a scoreless 3rd Qtr.
Ducks are 9-0 with an average margin of victory of 19.5 points. Imagine that scoring margin if they played even average in 3rd quarters.
@scoduckz It's remotely possible, but the thought of being able to bypass a trip to Indiana for the Championship, draw the 5 seed, get a home game in the first round and draw the Big 12 Champion in the second seems okay.
4 postseason games in order to win it all, rather than a potential 5
@scoduckz I was really hoping that was another staff member dressed up as Wilson Love in the middle (awesome!), but I think it's just Love not wearing a costume, (lame!)
@SwooshMcDuck It would be one thing if he was one of a number of "less uniform" ballots. But year at the bottom of this list year after year and is literally an order of magnitude different than the second last polster
@TheSquareAttack@SwooshMcDuck Every time I see it I'm teleported back to 2009 when, following (2-1) OOC play, the actual man did a press box report saying he didn't see how the Ducks would make it to Bowl eligibility
