Beating Penn St meant nothing lol-

They really haven’t played anyone until today-

Cignetti is the real deal-What he’s done a IU is nothing short of remarkable.

Lanning, Kelly and Freeze should be feeling serious heat for the money those teams put in the portal and the results they are getting from these coaches. I would fire Kelly and Freeze if they don't make the playoff. Just my opinion.
 
A lot of Cane fans love them some Dan….dude looked good with Mario recruits..now with his own not so much…
 
Overrated is a residual effect of decades of the old Pac-12 teams getting more poll and team attention than they deserved to entice East Coast college football fans to stay up late and watch their games. Network induced.

Dante Moore is too small. He is a good solid college QB but not good enough to beat teams with equal talent.

agree. and he has no presence. He doesn't hold himself like the leader of the team on the field.

Is there any other position in American sports equal to football quarterback where you truly don't know what you have until the proverbial lights are on and the bullets are firing?

QB rankings gathered from T-shirt and shorts non-contact workouts might be the most absurd thing in the whole recruiting ecosystem

"He looked great throwing against air" 🤦‍♂️

100% and football certainly has size profiles for certain positions if you want to be a championship level program
 
Oregon is a talented team but has been slightly overrated this year. The offense of play calling leaves a lot to be desired. The defensive line didn’t win the trenches and for the type of players Oregon recruits, this should be a huge concern moving forward. Sarratt absolutely dominated the game and Oregon really didn’t even try to adjust coverage on him. While Indiana basically won the trenches on both sides of the ball.

Lanning is still a very young coach and excel at recruiting but there has been some head scratching moments when it comes to gameday coaching.

Cignetti is of a **** of program builder and coach. Plain and simple

With all that being said Oregon could still win the Big Ten because that conference is the most overrated and boring conference this year.

Doubt he leaves IU. IU will pay whatever is needed to keep him and his staff. PSU, OSU, and ND all were serious about Haines for their DC spots and IU raised him to $2 million. Shannahan and Haines will likely have good head coaching offers very soon though.

How much of it is Lanning excelling at recruiting and how much is it the 87-year-old billionaire in the owner's box with his coach's headset on whose life obsession is the Ducks winning a National Championship?

Oregon's best win is at Northwestern 😉

It wouldn't shock me if they lost 2 out of 3 to @Iowa, USC, and @UW.

Who Oregon?

I think that's playing the result from yesterday. Oregon still has more talent than those three teams, and Lanning is still a quality coach despite yesterday's loss. Not sure how losing yesterday creates this narrative now that he's somehow a corch.

Is he a top 5 coach in the nation? Probably not, but he has won some meaningful games even if he did lose to OSU in a rematch in the playoffs.

Are people still upset about how Lanning embarrassed Deon's overrated Colorado team?

But, hasn't that been the case throughout the history of college football?

Jimbo bought a historic class at TAMU, and that worked out how?

We hate it here when other people say we pay for players, and we brag about it because that's the reality of the game now. Why are we then saying Oregon investing in the players Lanning wants as a bad thing?
