Same. I want them to lose every game they play right up until they go back to Seattle.

This.

Milo, are you originally from the Seattle area? I always assumed Portland because of your Blazers tag and location.... I guess I'm asking how you became a Sonics fan.

Not trying to troll, Im here just to see what other teams think of the Ducks. I honestly feel our top guys are just as fast if not faster than UF. We just dont have the depth or power. Our D lin is tiny but fas as well. We do not throw the ball well at all as our receivers are not that fast. RB's and linebackers are as fast as any team out there though.


Does your mood change from thread to thread?:crazy:

this looks like trolling to me?

Better hope yall (is that spelled right) get ahead early, otherwise the fastest defense in the country will shut down your passing game. Did I mention our two RB's were on the 4x100 team?

For those bashing our history compared to yours -I would rather have a team good in the present and future than in the past. It's going to be a long hike back up to ol rocky top for smokey.

Lmao at Bumi.......very well stated. Dooley has no doubt watched the Stanford and Ohio State games. They will make Darron prove it just like we are going to make Simms prove it. Imo though the experience factor will help Darron more and make it easier on him.

Florida has more prototypical pro-style linemen. So, they implement more pro-style concepts from spread formations to open up inside runs.

Oregon focuses more on getting the ball out of the pocket quickly using lots of screens and short routes. This year, it looks like they're going to use a lot of triple option to get both James and Barner on the field at the same time, similar to how Florida used Percy Harvin.

Florida never ran the triple option with Percy. He spent most of his time in the slot, and lined up a few times at back. Along with Reggie Bush, and Adrian Peterson, he was the most explosive player in collegiate football last decade.

Furthermore, this is the first season since Meyer took over that Florida is implementing pro style concepts into their offense.

Dude, I know you're a Ducks fan, but you sound like an idiot. you're comparing cupcakes from last week? really? "NM would crush Tenn-Martin"? lol. We're both unknowns at this point, no one really knows how good either of us are. Guess what buddy, if you think that we're gonna be able to run all day on the Vols tomorrow you're wrong, Wilcox is gonna sell out and shut down the run and make Darron Thomas PROVE he can move the offense by throwing the ball... in front of 100k people, on national television, on the road, in his first real start. Also, all our losses last year game against teams with bigass offensive lines than like to run right at you....standford, ohio state, boise. Guess what Tennessee is kinda like....yup.

Sorry for the dose of reality, but we could easily lose this game unless we play really really well.

Great post!

You're a cool duck, bro.
Btw, I've always kinda liked Oregon and I think you have a very good program. Win or lose tomorrow, I hope you guys rep the Pac-10 in the rose bowl and stomp a mudhole in Kiffin's ass on the way there.

Finally someone who actually has sense. Oregon has a similar style to Florida (and I don't remember us having a great track record against them lately) that I think will give us major problems. Any Tenn fan that isn't at least a little concerned is just stupid. Of course I hope and I believe we will win because I'm a FAN of UT but I'm not blind to the fact that we are program rebuilding. I also think Oregon fans need to also realize that we aren't going to be a NM, SurfDuck is right. Oregon's struggles against run first offense is well noted. Do I think it will be enough to overcome the #7 team in the nation? I hope so but if I'm honest, no- I think we'll fall short. But hey, it won't surprise me if we pull off an upset either. With us being at home anything can happen. GO VOLS!

The ducks should be just as fast as Florida on offense. Defense won't be close or as physical

Hey Vols, I'm looking forward to a good game tomorrow. I think everybody agrees that anything can happen.

Sorry. I wasn't clear. I was meaning that Oregon's use of Kenjon Barner is similar to Florida's use of Percy Harvin in that he will line up in the back-field and slot, motioning around, etc. sometimes with a second RB lined up.

Furthermore, this is the first season since Meyer took over that Florida is implementing pro style concepts into their offense.

Not true. There is video of Percy Harvin running the counter trey in this post:

People who are thinking Oregon isn't fast haven't watched them the last year. If their running backs find much space tomorrow, we'll lose. It's that simple.
