REACTION: Oregon's title hopes vanquished in another Washington loss | Oregon Ducks Podcast

[@robertharrelson5024]

Washington had two safeties back in action, a defensive lineman, and a full compliment of all their receivers. They were at full strength and came to play.

[@NothingButSilicone]

I didn’t even realize we had 2 back. I knew we had Asa back, and he’s great. Also knew McMillan was back at full strength, and that Giles could play in the post season and still return next year. Even with all that, I’m still a bit surprised we won.

[@SupeDefy]

Yea having Asa and KamFab back was big. Also great to see McMillan the "chain mover" back to full strength. So good at getting open.

[@NothingButSilicone]

@@SupeDefy If we are this healthy, or even healthier, for the first time in 9 weeks, I actually feel we have a chance to make noise. At least finish the season 14-1, which I’d be content with.

[@red-bloodedamerican2870]

Husky fan here. Another classic between these 2 teams. That was one of the best Pac-12 game I’ve seen in my lifetime. Hats off to the Ducks, gritty and tough team. When you guys rattled off 21 straight points just like that I was sweating big time. And that last TD you scored was amazing. I felt like this game was won by UW in the trenches. We are built for close games, not for blowouts, and that played out week after week. I have to admit I heard all the predictions this week and started to doubt whether UW could actually beat Oregon this time. You could see from the moment Bo Nix took the field in the first quarter that he was feeling the weight of the moment. He seemed to settle down but it was too late. Penix seemed more loose and confident. I also felt that UW outcoached OR and that was ultimately the difference. I feel for you guys today, the agony of defeat is a painful mistress. Good luck in your bowl game, and we will see you next season in the Big 10! Go Dawgs!🔥

[@NothingButSilicone]

So long as their heart is actually in it, Oregon will absolutely demolish whoever their opponent is in a new years six. I don’t care who it is.

Two evenly matched teams. The difference: Oregon clearly outcoached and (it seems) the Ducks spent too much time team basking in the point spread and hype that they were going to club the Huskies. The play-calling left a lot to be desired, especially with Will Stein. Lack of first half adjustments really, really hurt the Ducks. All that said, the Ducks are on a good trajectory and we can expect they are going to be very good in the Big 10 fairly quickly.

UW is the better team, no excuses! This is a gut punch like no other. And that includes the Rose bowl losses and the two NC losses. Mostly because it’s just SO unexpected, based on the way they each played the second half of the season, I truly felt like they were the better team, and the. They just didn’t show up! Truly feel sick

[@RScott413]

The Penix incomplete pass that was called a fumble on the field was properly overturned. It was clearly moving forward before contact was even made. DJ7 has been putting up big numbers all season despite the obvious pass-first UW offense, so him running effectively was no surprise. The 2 things that were different from the previous meeting were a healthy McMillian and overall defense. Without 11, UW doesn't just have the automatic mismatch in the passing game that it does with Polk, McMillan and Odunze that leaves a safety or nickel on an exceptional receiver. Without a tremendous pass rush a QB like Penix will carve any defense up in 1A football. This is also the reason UW will likely have success moving the ball in their next game. The UW defense played every down, they never just gave up on the play until the late TD by Oregon where a play on the ball wasn't made and poor tackling/angles were taken that gave up a score that UW would have likely allowed in trade for the remaining time. Ultimately the UW offense was able to close the game out rather comfortably.

Playing man defense against 3 nfl ready receivers is insanity I’d rather bottle up the receivers and play it safe and give up 200 yards to Johnson he was banged up all game. They had 2 receivers over 100 yards we take away even one of those receivers they don’t convert as many third downs and we for sure win the game but just loading the box and forcing guys on a island against those receivers just wasn’t a good defensive plan to me but good game huskies

[@JamesSmiley]

VIDOE IDEA: I played D1 & have been a head coach in high school. I feel like Lanning got out coached - might be an interesting video for you to do. I love Lanning but he’s learning. Game 1 is coached his team out of that game on accident. Game 2 he setup them up for failure on accident by not being prepared on offense - he gambled on a pass happy “put the ball in my best player’s hand” game plan but it wasn’t our strength. Hardly no runs. He gambled hard on Nix destroying their DBs. Check out the Huskies Coach postgame (link below), he said in the beginning of the interview he knew Lanning was going to do SLANT and RPOs and they practiced for it and shut it down. If our offensive scheme involved “double moves if slants aren’t working” that would have been wide open. But we never adjusted, we just went on to other play designs. Lanning lost the cat & mouse game. He’ll learn, but his aggressive nature once again kept us from doing something safer which should have been: control the clock, run the ball & make them stop you, use nifty plays that counter off play action but are tailored to holes in their defense in the moment. Huskies coach knew what to stop and how. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gmGQaGWQaclgo7csi=agkRh3c5lDTswVby

They play to win right from the start and it feels like we are always under attack when we play them, even when we are on offense. They fly up to the line of scrimmage on us because they aren't threatened deep and we play 10 yards off on 3rd and 2. When you lose 3 straight by 3 points, talent is not the problem. Our guys fought really hard to get back into the game.

[@nickp2738]

If you remember, I posted a concern about the secondary going forward. I sa that as a huge problem in this game. Also stopping the run, but I'm not worried long-term about that. In your opinion, do we have the pieces on the roster to fix the secondary, or do we need the portal? Sorry so long

[@Moodyman22]

Penix hasn’t played that well since our first game.. shocked that we just looked that bad in the trenches and didn’t execute. Injuries hurt us, but definitely disappointed this team didn’t get the job done. One of and probably the best Oregon team I’ve ever seen.

[@magnamater4754]

I think it speaks to the culture of the ducks that they couldn’t beat the Dawgs three games in a row in three different states. And they were favored by almost double digits. What a great culture 😂😂

[@gavinboggs5787]

Embarrassing that’s all I can say Oregon is a national embarrassment again

[@dwightthomas1029]

Embarrassment is too strong. Disappointing given all their advantages (facilities, NIL, recruiting,etc.) v. a largely three star team is stunning.

[@rubenrebenz1000]

Yeah, just imagine the Huskies with mostly 4 star recruits…

Never hated a coach before, so thank you Lanning. Mario was a much better coach. Lanning will never be a good coach at Oregon. Wish we could move on from this punk.

Thank you for your all of your hard work. I am a member of your channel because the way you break things down simply and to the point. You have a high IQ in football but also in general. Thank you for covering the NW college/universities so eloquently and with class. Keep up the great work! :)

Thank you!!!

[@FihnIsTech]

Hey Spencer! New listener here, loving the show. I was devastated on Friday but today I am angry. How did a 2 loss Oregon get matched with Liberty? I attribute this to the bias displayed towards the big ten and SEC. Not matching Oregon against a current big ten school was a ratings mishap by the selection committee. Thoughts on the bowl selections?

[@dougbyers1270]

Spencer, agree with this comment. In fact this is a slap in the face to the Ducks! This reminds me of the part in Christmas vacation. When Clark gets his Jelly of the month club membership. I hope we beat Liberty by 50. As an Utah Duck I believe a 5-7 BYU team would give us a better game. This is why we need to be out of our beloved Pac 12. frustrated Duck. Liberty?! Are you kidding me!! What say you. Daily listener.

[@LockedOnOregonDucks]

I'll share thoughts tomorrow, thanks for tuning in to the show!

[@Mike-treesarewood]

Tough loss but Washington played well. Just think how we would have felt if the conference didn’t change to the two best records instead of north and south champs. We would have been 11-1 and left out of this game.

[@dwightthomas1029]

The reason they have replay is for plays like the fumble/incomplete pass. Clearly his arm was going forward. Incontrovertible evidence means reversed call. Don’t blame the refs for doing the right thing. Tip the cap to the better team. Proved it over two games.

[@jayminbernhardt4952]

WA was the better team today for sure and we’re on the first game they matched up in. Thing I’m frustrated about is that WA was not a good football team pretty much every game after the first Ducks Huskies matchup. Hate that they waited till now to play good football. Congratulations on the win hopefully y’all do well in the playoffs. I truly believe that the winner of this game was gonna be in the national championship game. Losing by three in the last three games against one team has gotta be some sort of mathematical insanity… can’t wait to kick your ass in BIG10 competition

[@Michael-uu7zq]

@@jayminbernhardt4952 GG, Oregon is no pushovers and Oregon Huskies is always a good game. In regard to your big ten comment, BRING IT

I didn't like the call but I get it--UW was certainly the better team not trying to take that away from them. Just commenting on a big play in the game

[@g10s]

Maybe the Ducks now wish that Jayden Daniels was standing on the sideline, holding a Clipboard. they could have stuck him in and turned to game around.

[@cnance3564]

Next step for this program under Dan is building that unbreakable identity that you lean on to win these types of games. It’s being build, but it’s not complete. Out of everything that transpired though the team coming out that flat simply can not happen. Washington was ready, the ducks were not. Gotta retool the secondary, get the qb right again , and hope that some of these freshman are ready to take a step. Tough loss, gotta bounce back.

[@davidlow1315]

Nike money will help build the team back up 😂 Lanning will fuck it up

[@NormPetersonsBarStool]

Cmon man Oregon best win is texas tech and Oregon st with there coach tells them he quits before the game

[@gregorymackinnon7485]

Somehow, this one stings even more than being blown out by Utah twice in a row. Bright days ahead for the progrum. Go Ducks!

[@LockedOnOregonDucks]

It stings a lot more cause the Ducks were so close, whereas those 2021 games they weren't

[@tomford2218]

Spencer I like that you try very hard to be objective. You laid out all the mistakes that you think the ducks made. However, you left out the mistakes the Huskies made. I think your program will be tops next year. Big Ten

[@dyl3965]

What’s sad is if we wanted to make a National Championship run, this was the year. With other teams not looking so great and oregon having the talent we had. It’s now going to take some time adjusting to a new conference before we see any potential playoff run.

[@itshadouken]

Oregon couldn’t stop UWs rushing or passing 😂

[@cameronwheatley5897]

Washington had a healthy turner and fabichulanan in the secondary which wasn’t present in the first matchup. Better pass defense means they should’ve ran the ball more but it’s hard to run the ball when you’re playing from behind almost the whole game

[@richardsather6010]

The injured players for UW returned for this game and the playoffs.

[@kobetakemura5179]

why I have no sympathy for Ducks fans. Spent the entire week doing a victory lap before the game was even played.

[@bajacore]

Ducks offense going three and out early was the difference maker. Defense did everything they could limit UW blowing it open in the game open in the first half, so credit to them. Oregon still has a chance to play for a Rose Bowl and that’s not a terrible consolation. There is, however, a ton of football left to play today. I’m praying for chaos in the other championship games and maybe the ducks get lucky.

[@8d4o0c4]

No, the Rose Bowl will be part of the CFP. Most likely destination is the Fiesta. A fine bowl, but a let-down overall...

[@TheRooster1988]

Feels good to be lucky again, again. It is like a script about it. That i wrote a year ago. Again.

[@big1dog23]

James should have been taking at least 2/3's of the snaps for the last several games. Look at Johnson's power run style and blocking. He picked up blitzing LB's several times. Bucky just isn't powerful enough for a really good D.

[@jtkahaluu4343]

Great analysis, Spencer. I give the award to the Dogs' OC and OL. I guess you're right about Bucky too, though my spin on the Duck offense was that the OC seemed to assume that Nix would complete 79%.

Their OC is very good and he had a great game

You can't diss Lanning and the Ducks. They are still a awesome team and coach. Just wasn't our day. There is always another day. Go Ducks!!!!

[@Waaterbottle]

Washington showed up to play four full quarters yesterday, and they looked like the better team. Great season for both teams, but this stinks.

[@thepopster]

Good team but let’s face it the dawgs have the ducks number. Just something schematically that gives the ducks fits. The beatdown on both sides of the ball was eye dropping from the beginning. Quite frankly ducks were lucky to be in the game. On to next year. Bowl game is irrelevant

[@ShaneConQueso]

As a Beav, anything short of a tornado blowing through Allegiant Stadium and taking out both teams was going to be a loss, but seeing as I live surrounded by obnoxious quackpackers, obviously this couldn't have gone better. That said, I've come to be a fan of yours Spencer, so my sympathies go out to you. But I did hear you in the presser get your question to Coach Lanning, so THAT was cool? right? Anyway, Ducks will be fine... much to my dismay. #GOBEAVS! Bring on the PAC-2

[@LockedOnOregonDucks]

Love that you were tuned in! Respect my guy. Was neat to ask him a Q not gonna lie

[@michaelknapp8961]

Ducks just couldn’t get things going especially in the first half. Penix had all the time in the world to throw the ball to wide open receivers. This one was a punch in the gut.

[@nickp2738]

What has changed with the rushing? I know Nix has been hot, so we haven't leaned on it as much. This game we needed and couldn't even come close to being effective.
