They looked completely outmatched size and strength wise to me.

They sure looked it but fact is they were every bit as big and they have plenty 3-4 star recruits. They were out classed on the sidelines and just plain unprepared.
 
Last 3 Oregon season-opening losses ended up in Pac Conference Championships and Rose Bowl appearances (2009, 2011, 2019).

I actually thought Gary Anderson was a decent coach...

I've an OSU donor friend who relayed that GA was F-ing one of the Beaver cheerleaders. He was told to quit (turning his back on millions still owed) or it would be revealed and he'd be disgraced and unemployable.

It's been a long time since i've seen a Duck team this poor at tackling. I mean they looked like a Little Sisters of the Poor team out there. Yes, the coaches must do better, but c'mon man, the players need to look in the mirror. That was a trash effort yesterday. Where were the top recruits yesterday. Georgia had a freshman CB who made a stellar interception. I can't remember one play made by the Ducks. After a Georgia receiver dropped a pass , Bridges acted like he made a big play. Really. He was toasted most of the day. Noah Sewell was in on some tackles, but nobody stood out for good reason. The offensive line was actually decent yesterday. But Nix was mediocre, at best, and the receivers were glued to their defenders like they were ballroom dancing. WHERE WAS THE SPEED of this Ducks team?

The linebackers were very slow imo.
 
Yeah there is a lot of talk that Oregon has one of the best linebacking corps in the country. They looked like absolute shit yesterday.

Not sure what happened with the defense. Lanning is a defensive guy and Georgia got anything they wanted yesterday. It was borderline pathetic.

I’m not saying they’re done for. But, hopefully that ass kicking was a wake up call.

I knew Kent had an affair while HC at Oregon, probably more then one as cheaters cheat, but am unaware of anything inappropriate going on with a cheerleader. I thought he was fired years after an affair was publically revealed (and investigated by the University) for his teams poor performances the last few seasons of his 13 at the helm. Unlike Anderson's 2.5 losing seasons at OSU, Kent enjoyed many successes at UO. I know for sure EK didn't leave his team mid-season without public explanation turning his back on 12M still owed. But other then those minor differences, spot on comparison

Cristobal wasn't about speed. He was about beef. And he got it.

Pretty sure Kent was nailing a cheerleader. That's what I've heard since he was let go.

the LB's, like everybody else on the Duck D, looked slow because they weren't sure what to do at the snap. There was confusion and befuddlement all over the field. Oregon has had 3 different defensive coordinators and 3 different defensive schemes in 3 straight seasons. That's actually the same burden, on the other side of the ball, that Justin Herbert carried in his first 3 seasons as the Duck QB.

when defenders are thinking first and reacting second, they are going to be slow and take bad angles. It was those bad angles that generated all the poor arm-tackling. The Duck D was running uphill when any good defense runs downhill. My suspicion is that the defensive coaches are going to have to simplify the defense so the players are reacting first, instead of thinking. The need to think pre-snap, then react
