ALAMO BOWL!! 12/30/13 Game Thread

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Funny how when I go to the bathroom Oregon scores.

Very Superstitious~

Just keep it at home.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

I was just thinking.... that was the first shovel pass I have ever seen really work.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Frost is NOT good about getting DAT involved.

TX is covering him well.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

If we score on this drive, game over.

 

[Targus]

I prefer shuffle passes

 

[Targus]

Thank you Frost for using DAT less than any other bowl game

I stand corrected.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

MM is hurting. The knee...

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Hard to believe that our kicking game may save our bacon.

3-3 on FG's

 

[Targus]

Go knee

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Dang, that TX returner really gets a full head of steam.

 

[Targus]

Maldlameo is a terrible punter

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Maldlameo is a terrible punter

He's average.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

We were fortunate to keep that punt.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

And yet another penalty.

 

[oldmangrouch]

Botched drive. It's like half the team wants to win, and the rest just don't care.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Oh they care. But penalties are killing them.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

ANOTHER ANOTHER ANOTHER FRIGGIN' PENALTY!

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

MM can't run or throw. Maybe put in a diff QB?

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

pick 6 #2

 

[Zalsa]

Good things:

Defense played out of their mind.
Mariota is a danger even at 90%

Bad:
Johnstone out with an ACL
Undisciplined. We need to cut down on penalties.

 

[Sinobas]

I was not expecting this type of game. Mariota's legs were basically our whole offense tonight. We were obviously suffering with his injury, but now that he's almost came back to form, we still didn't roll quite like we used to. And our defense totally shut them down, I was not expecting that either, since it's looked like crap since the Stanford loss.

That little ticker at the bottom had DAT as the #2 RB in the draft....really?? He's not even the #2 running back on our team. And Huff should be ranked higher than #30 for WRs, he'll be a good NFL WR with his toughness.

I just don't think Helfrich is going to be the HC for very long. Maybe one or two years, tops. The team just has a different feel under him. CK is an elite coach. I'm not sure Helf is on that same level.

not many are on the same level as Chip. But if you based job security on comparing to Chip, all but about 4 College Coaches would be on the Hot Seat.

 

[Wheels]

FGs aren't winning this game.

actually take away all Ducks TD's and they still win this game

Those 2 pick sixes were huge.

 

[Wheels]

Those 2 pick sixes were huge.

I was including them too No TD's needed for this win.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Ducks win!

I agree, but if the team wants to win a NC, I'm not sure if Helf is the guy that's going to get it done. I didn't really understand it until after he was gone, but Chip is one of those coaches that inspires a team. They take on his personality. He's one of the most arrogant bastards in football, but it works for him. I'm truly bummed that we didn't get a championship while he was here.

Sadly, I have to agree.

Chip Kelly's don't come along all that often.

As the NFL is currently finding out. I think the Eagles are going to be legit contenders in the very near future. I don't know if they have the juice to get far in this postseason, but next year or the year after, Chip will have them contending. The guy is just too good.
