Yes. Respect is good and so is scoring and making a strong statement.

I think the game already made plenty of a statement, no?
Yes and sometimes i am a greedy old fart.

The gameday threads would be more enjoyable if that really was your one criticism. Instead you act like Oregon is going to lose after any near negative play. Yes, our LB’s are often lost in pass pro but relax dude.

He was rotating in with DJ Johnson on the outside quite a bit.

Easier to close games out when Bellotti leaves you Mathew’s, Clay, Ward, Kiko, WTIII ect. Mario left guys who are good in HS and on paper, but aren’t great on the field. It will take a couple cycles for the D to get Lannings guys in there.

But maybe I’m the only one, but I remember guys like Luck and Barkley throwing all over Chips teams. Chip dominated, but there was also some really bad Pac 10/12 teams during his time.

We played amazing
Fun game to be at and watch.
Any criticisms are nitpicking against a top 10 opponent.
I wonder if some of you ever just watch the game and enjoy it.

I hope Nix gets some Heisman push. He deserves it.

Beating the poodles will set a new Autzen record for consecutive victories at home.

I HATED the Nix transfer pre-season. Boy has the guy made me eat crow. He is playing at Mariota level. I NEVER saw that coming.

We’ve never had a play caller like Dilly. Chip was great at setting things up differently, but Dilly seems to be legitimately great at scheming a bunch of plays off of each other

And we’ve never managed a clock like we’re seeing this year

The clock management by a first year coach has been amazing without even considering how bad it was under Cristobal. Even scheming a way to rob Ucla of a cheap possession in the last 12 seconds was great.

They’re playing a game within the game that you don’t see very often. They way they use the clock and halftime to squeeze out possessions that normally wouldn’t be there is incredible. And that onsides was the same thing. Completely changed the game by giving us a free possession.

Bo Nix essentially just played a perfect game. The level he played at today in every facet, from accuracy to decision making to athleticism, is ridiculous.

I know it is college football and weird things can happen, but it sure doesn't look like any team in the Pac-12 is going to be able to stop the combination of Bo Knows + Dilly Dilly.

Regarding LBs, aren't both freshman LBs (Devon Jackson and Harrison Taggart) sort of viewed as "next generation"/"Georgia style" LBs (6-2/6-3 guys who probably hit the field about 215 who timed at 10.5-10.7 as HS track athletes) or is that a partial misread or still "to be determined"?

People complaining about the defense seem to forget that ucla is the number 2 offense in the country. Sometimes it's not about completely stopping the offense, but limiting the damage done, which they did today. This defense has its deficiencies, but they held one of the top offenses in the country to well under their season average in points, and under their average in total yards. They could do better, but I've certainly seen a lot worse
