Oregon Ducks (aka U of Nike)

One of the greatest moments in my Buckeye fanhood was the almost visceral, palpable sense--even through the TV--of that entire team just plain fucking deflating after the first five minutes when it dawned on them that not only would Ohio State run step-for-step with them all game long but would punch them in the mouth harder than they have ever been punched in the mouth at the same time.

The Alabama game was never truly put away for me until the last couple minutes. I knew Oregon was toast after those first couple series.
I've rewatched the NC on multiple occasions, and after the feeling out from their quick initial drive, OSU knew that they were the better team and just pushed them around. By the 2nd half start Oregon was demoralized and winded. Arik Armstead was a former 5star can't miss kid and was turned into Taylor Deckers bitch(or was it Baldwin, I can't remember), and saw his draft stock plummet. Both of their lines got owned and that was the biggest determining factor.

How true. Midway thru the 3rd quarter, critical 3rd down and 44 is AWOL on the sidelines gasping for air. By the end of the third 44 and 9 were invisible... and I know this is going against the spirit of BP, but the comment from Frosted Tips told the truth: "Neither of them has been a factor since the second drive." Not quiet true since Armstead chased down Cardale on his fumble.

The spirit of BP isn't that Frosty is never right. I mean the sun shines on a dog's ass some days. Blind squirrel, etcetera. It's that he's a hyperbolic, vapid doucher that would and has thrown his "beloved" Alma mater under the bus for a cheap bump in "credibility" to increase his own brand and when called on his bullshit he took his ball and moved to Nashville.

:biggrin:

Oregon teases either uniforms that glow in the dark or actually light up

Nice gimmick..... not sure how it actually brings any value to the program, other than maybe recruiting, I guess......

The gimmick could be a financial windfall for Nike in sales of the jerseys to the Duck fans. If they actually do a glow in the dark and/or illuminated jersey and it is successful at Oregon; imagine the possibilities at other schools, etc. i.e. the cult at Penn State would go "ape shit" over it for a whiteout game.

You clearly don't understand the cult. They lost their shit when names were put on the backs of the jerseys.
