Pretty sure Stanford goes to the PAC12 championship. We're tied with them and they now have the tie breaker.
 
Didn't everyone in the god damn stadium now our kicker is a worthless piece of shit? May as well have gone for it on 4th, though we wouldn't have made it. Man...one loss and now we may not even get to play in the Rose Bowl.

If Stanford loses as UCLA (which has a fair chance of happening), we can still make the rose bowl though. But this offense just got shut down today. Stanford gave us plenty of opportunities with their fumbles and we couldn't cash in. Mariota played like crap. We had no run game....and man, Michael Clay had the ball in his arms at the end of the game and couldn't come down with it.
 
That is so strange to me because the Ducks still have a better record overall, college football is infuriating.

Chip had no choice. The offense was playing so completely terrible that it was a FG or nothing.
 
Well three things break our way and we would have won, had DAT blocked for Marriota that would have been a TD. Had our kicker made one damn FG we would have won, had the kicker made the FG in OT we would have went to double OT. Damn, everything went against us this game it was like destined to have us lose apparently.
 
From #1 to bitches in one play......and Kansas State got their ass kicked.....

Anyway, if this is the way Oregon plays in a big game, maybe we don't deserve a championship.
 
I just can't believe this 'im in utter shock. EVERYTHING went wrong for us. We beat ourselves as much as Standford beat us.
 
Fuck. How did we not recover that fumble? Fuck, fuck, fuck. Why can't Oregon win anything????
 
Why can't Oregon catch a break when they are playing badly like Notre Dame and Alabama did and just get a miracle touch down somehow?
 
no, it's based on conference record. they're 7-1, you're 7-1.

Pac 12 tiebreaker rules said:
Divisional Champion Tie-breaker

Two Teams:

Head-to-head competition between the two tied teams. If no game is played between the two tied teams or that game ends in a tie, the following tie-breaking procedures would be applied:

1. Record in games played within the division.

2. Record against the next highest placed team in the division (based on record in all Conference games, both divisional and cross-divisional) proceeding through the division.

3. Record in common Conference games.

4. Highest BCS Ranking following the last weekend of regular-season games.

5. Total number of wins in a 12-game season. The following conditions will apply to the calculation of the total number of wins:
Only one win against a team from the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision or lower division will be counted annually.
Any games that are exempted from counting against the annual maximum number of football contests per NCAA rules (current Bylaw 17.9.5.2) shall not be included.

It doesn't help that every part of our offense was failing. Stanford stopped the run, and Mariota finally looked like a Freshman. He played completely out of control in the second half.
 
This state is cursed. Did we piss off the Indians when we settled here?
 
Stanford took away the edges and we continued to try and get them to the point of losing. And, Mariota made numerous poor decisions. But he is a freshman and it's a learning experience.

Now, if USC beats ND, we still have a shot at the Natty.
 
Well Ducks gave it a go this year, just wasn't ment to be. Lets see if this loss is enough to keep Chip here to try for another shot at a Title or if its the end with him.
 
Well look, things can still play out in the Ducks favor.
Stanford loses at UCLA
Notre Dame loses at USC
Ducks beat Beavers in Civil War
Oregon beats UCLA in pac-12 conference game.


All the top teams have a loss now and we could make a strong case for a top 2 seeding with our strength of schedule. So a natty is not totally out of reach.
 
Wow.

One good drive and we are #1. Now, we can't even win the Pac 12. Choke job of massive proportions.

My fault, I guess. Everytime I start to believe - they make a point of proving me wrong! I will now go burn my Duck cap.

To have a shot at the Natty, USC needs to beat ND, and Florida needs to lose and Alabama needs to beat Georgia in the SEC championship game.
 
and I forgot that Standford needs to lose because without the Pac-12 Championship game we don't get it over Kansas and ND
 
We aren't going to the Natty. Forget that shit. It's over. Done. At this point we'll be lucky if we go to the Rose Bowl.

Agreed. We don't deserve to go to the Natty or the Rose Bowl. You can't have a game like this and expect to be given anything.
 
I hate college football, it is as cursed as the NBA, even with all of Nike and Phil's money we still cannot even win a damn championship. :P Seriously though I was never expecting the Ducks to play as well as they have, I was expecting more of a run at the Rose Bowl, not a run at the natty. Next year was when I was expecting us to make a strong run at the natty as it would be Mariota's second year and I believe he should play much much better than he did this game.
 
It's not over. Notre Dame is the only team without a loss, and they could lose at USC. Even if they don't lose, you have several 1 loss teams that will be completing for the #2, and a win over OSU and UCLA could tip it in our favor, especially if we bounce back and blow those teams out.

The big key is for UCLA to beat Stanford...which has a very fair chance of occuring.

Oregon will not be in position with only one game left (maybe two). We will drop to fifth or sixth in the BCS after this loss. It's over. Get it out of your head.
