Official Game Thread. Cougs vs. Trees

It happens. Just last week the 7-1 NO Saints got blown out at home by the 1-7 Atlanta Falcons. There is a reason why there is a long season, in any game, anything can happen. Besides, how a team plays in the first game may not be how well a team plays in the last game of the season. I am a soccer fan and I just saw Seattle beat LAFC in the playoffs despite never beating them in the regular season. It happens.
To be fair Stanford is one of the greatest passing teams of all time. Backup QB or not
I'm at the "screw it send the house" phase. We're getting torched anyway, I'd like to have SOME chance of making a play
Turnover Cougs
I wondered when the Cougs would finally get one.
Big play that the offense needs to take advantage of.
Even a FG is big here.

Not at all. Oregon was the better team against Auburn. Just because they lost that game does not mean that they would do terrible in the playoffs should they make it that far.
Man that throw from Mills that Woods picked off is about the worst decision I've seen from a QB all year. Nobody in his face, chucks it at like 4 defenders
You are what your record says you are, and Oregon’s record makes them a good - not great - team. Add to that losing against an Auburn team that has failed every challenge it’s been given. My position is they will probably get chewed up. Yours is that the opposite is possible. I don’t dispute that but it’s also a fairly meaningless and safe provision to make
I watched the Washington Nationals win the World Series despite having a very slow start to the season and with several teams having a better record. I saw the Sounders win MLS cup despite several teams having a better record and playing mediocre for a long stretch in the middle of the season.
So, what I am saying is that one game or what happens early in a season may have little to do with how good a team is by the end of the season.
There are three undefeated teams: LSU, OSU and Clemson. Georgia won today, but they almost choked the game away. Alabama? They lost at home a week ago and their QB is likely done for the season. If Oregon does win out, they would be 12-1 with a win over an equally good Utah team and would have won 12 games in a row. By any measure, that is impressive.

He was in for KO returns.
some interesting substitutions today. Thomas was on the bench to start the game. Taylor didn’t play much (or maybe at all) in the first half.
