#12 BYU @ #25 Oregon (Sept. 17, Sat 12:30 PM Fox)

I know the play-clock was running but a good time for our offense to talk about these next few plays. I think we're going to stay on the ground to run the clock down since we also get the ball out of half but if we stay with some RPOs we might see a coverage bust. We tried for it on the Nix scamper.

[Duck07]

Had they not gotten the first down, BYU gets the ball with a very short field. Presuming the score a TD, then get the ball to start the second half... easily could have changed the momentum to lose the game. Rookie head coach call. I'm glad it worked, but I doubt we ever see that again.

Even if it plays out that way, we'd still have the lead with a chance for a 2 minute drive AND the opening drive of the 3rd quarter, with a lead.

Anyone else think James looking like our best back?

[Duck07]

We're also running behind Marcus Harper a lot. Walk is out, replaced by JPJ.

He's slippery

[Duck07]

Damn with the BYU timeout there we could still run the ball here with 1/10 at the 15 and 2 TOs.

Didn't we kick off to start the game?

What a great drive.

To all the guys saying that we should stick with Nix, you were right!

We did kick off to start.

He's been very composed, taken chances when there and also not taken them when they weren't and just grabbed a few yards on the ground.

Three receivers were open on that play. Thumbs up.

I'm still not sold on him. I don't know if Ty would be better. His long passes fall short. Nonetheless, he's the guy we're gonna go with.

What I really like so far is our O-line is just flat pushing the BYU line around. We're running and controlling the game.

What I don't like is our pass defense. Just leaving BYU receivers way too open.
