Do we really have to see Miami and Mario for the first highlight of halftime? This feels like a low blow from ABC.

I still pray for Lanning to be a massive improvement, this is just his first game so give him time.

I have never called it this early in the season but I am saying Bo "no". I have watched him the past and I see the potential there but for every brilliant play, there is one poor play and one just bad play. He seems to have no knowledge of placement. Already in the first half he would have several more completions and first downs if he threw the ball in front of the receiver. While the broadcast gave him a pass on the first int in some ways it symbolizes his play. It was not far enough for the receiver to stretch out and get it and it was not intentionally short so the receiver could undercut and catch and it wasn't back-shoulder so only the receiver could catch it. It was short and it allowed the db to have the better chance to catch it than the receiver. Great int by the way I wish we could do the same.

Bo might win us some games but its better to have a constant average QB than one who shifts randomly from brilliant to average to bad all in the course of a series.

Sorry Bo I just don't see it being good for the Ducks.

I'm now hoping he gets benched and that Lanning gives Thompson a chance.

I didn’t mean it as he isn’t going to be an improvement, just being down 3-28 sucks to see the coach that left us.

Ugh. I did not expect it to be this bad. Nix has a ton of experience but it sure isn;t showing in a positive way.

I can't make an intelligent comment on Bo, I know nothing about him aside from the first two quarters. What I can say is, if we had given TT the reigns last year and let him make his mistakes and let him play the entire year over AB, his upside is way higher than Bo and he would have been ready for this game. Doesn't mean we would have won, but not getting blown out in embarrassing fashion would have been a good start to the Lanning era.

College football and all of sports really (mostly due to fans) have turned into a what have you done for me lately business. As a result coaches tend to be more concerned about right now and don’t think long-term. Last year and this year Thompson very well might be the better long term choice, but because we’re in this business the focus is right now. Heck the only reason Herbert started in LA was cause a doctor poked Tyrod Taylor in the neck, between those two which QB has a higher ceiling?

I’m very concerned that this may be a 10th ranked defense in the PAC-12…..

Offensive scheme has shown the ability to move the ball. Our defense has been massively disappointing and it's not like I was expecting Oregon to win this game. I woulda been happy with 17-3 at halftime

Please, tell me I’m wrong, I’m serious! I’d rather posters tell me why Oregon will be better than this on defense than posting something like this. I’m not a football expert, I played basketball all my life, all I’m seeing is a defense that isn’t even getting close to stopping this team. I know it’s Georgia but weren’t they supposed to be a great defensive team and just good offensive team? As a fan with my level of knowledge, I’m left concerned about this defense. Can’t stop Bennett, can we stop other good QB’s like Cameron Rising and Jayden de Laura?

They are playing against a top 5 OL in the country, the literal top 2 tight ends in the country, a 6th year QB that has faced the best defenses in CFB the last two seasons and is excellent at extending plays with his feet and keeping his eyes open to see the uncovered receivers, along with 5 stars at nearly every other position. Georgia had a top 5 efficiency offense last season but nobody talks about them because they had a near generational defense.

Give Oregon 3-4 love games playing a new defense and they will likely finish in the top 3-4 of the conference without major injuries.

How can we convince the coaches to bench Nix?
