Ducks/Pokes score prediction

I, as an Oregon fan, am trying my best to muster up a little hate for you guys and this game. So, to try and get the ball rolling, my score prediction is:

Ducks: Eleventy Billion
Pokes: I haz sadz

Thoughts?

Word is out that many scouts are now considering Kirkegaard to be a better NFL prospect than Mariota.

Pokes 21
Oregon 10

LOL. That might garner a little hate. You should write comedy sketches!
I can see it. He got outperformed by a nobody QB named Denker last season....Colby could be this years Denker and UW could be this years Arizona...

Agreed. My interest in Oregon is near zero. I hope they don't buy out of their visit to Laramie in 2017; if so I'll probably hate them. But for the time being, nothing there really to hate.

Have you ever lived in Vegas?

Now, when you say uw, do you mean the Pokes or the fuskies? If you mean the Pokes, that's okay. However, if you mean the fuskies from washingTEN, then I must take exception with that. uw (fuskies) won't be competing with us for a while. Calling any team uw (fuskies) is a dangerous game when relating it to the Ducks somehow.

Actually, I did live in Vegas. Why would you ask that? It just seems like an odd question. I lived there from 2002 to 2006. You?

Well I just figured since YOU wandered onto a University of Wyoming board I didnt need to explain which UW I was speaking in reference to... Apparently Oregon is a football school only, academics? Whutz thet?
 
Classic let-down game.

Pokes 21
Oregon 17

The ducks got way up emotionally late in the game to pull off the come from behind victory against Mich St. And of course they're overlooking the Cowboys. Oregon plays Washington State next Saturday, right? You won't convince me they've spent this week preparing for lowly Wyoming when they've got their conference opener next week. We've got a new coach, a new QB, a lot of young faces, and a not-very-good-last-season defense. Of course they're overlooking us. Classic scenario for an upset.

This is a no-win situation for Oregon, and a no-lose situation for the Cowboys. Oregon wins by 10, or 20, or 60, and no one thinks twice about it, that's what was supposed to happen. We win, even by a point with a blocked last minute field goal, and the football world loses its collective mind.

And yes, most of this is TIC. Just don't expect the Cowboys to roll over and die in this one - that ain't our style. Win or lose, the Ducks will know they were in a fight come Saturday evening.

GO POKES!!

As far as the "uw" thing is concerned, that term is a sore spot with us. We have stomped on "uw" for the last 10 years (soon to make it eleven). I just wanted to clarify.

In regards to academics, do you really want to compare alumni?

Rolling over and dying is not a trait of your team. We have seen that in your current team and your new coach. Yes, we had an emotional win. However, we live to "Win The Day" and see every foe as a faceless opponent. I disagree that it's a no-win for us. If we win by 50 or more, the country will view that as a "win" for us. If we play a close game, not so much. Here's to an injury-free game and a phenomenal rest of the season for both of us.
 
Do you guys get why most people hate Duck fans yet?
Anyone remember the article written by a former Duck player talking about how bad duck fans are?

Hey duck fan... lets talk about alums for a minute...
Who is Autzen stadium named after and where did he graduate?
Where did Rich Brooks graduate?
And the PA guy at Autzen?

Just because you have uncle Phil trying to buy national titles in eugene doesn't mean you have a superior academic institution.

Oh! Good! That makes two of you then so far.

Do you have any betting tips? From what I've read here, Duck fans who have lived in Vegas know the angles when it comes to betting 40+ point spreads.
 
Pokes lead at half time 17-14, then the Ducks turn it on 2nd half, and pull out a scary win for themselves, 47-21, almost same score as last week. I'll be there to witness, hope it's somewhat fun!!! hope I'm wrong tho

Anything said from a barkbiter is taken with a huge grain of salt. "Most people" don't hate duck fans. It's typically the bandwagon fans of other teams that have read that narrative. If you go onto other message boards and see the comments, they are usually fact-based and amicable. However, "fans" like yourself, are the ones that are bitter and try to follow said narrative because it makes you feel better.

Do we have some trashy fans? Of course. Do you? Absolutely. Does every, other team in football, hands down. Except that the majority of Duck fans are good, classy people. You pick out a small sampling and apply it to all fans. Just what we would expect from a baver. Try a little harder, kid brother.

I appreciate your enthusiasm and love for your team, I really do, but do you truly believe that you can hold us to the same score as MSU? That the Pokes can compete for the first half like Michigan State did? That seems a bit far-fetched to me.

I guess I don't "know the angles" but I would caution you on betting the spread.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that most of the country will view it as a win if the Ducks have one more point.

Yeah, we do. We've heard it all about not being able to compete. People said the same thing about Nebraska last season. And Texas a few years before that. And UCLA. And Tennessee. And Ole Miss. I realize that this particular team didn't play most of those games, and we've had some significant changes this season. But the bottom line is this, we don't think the Pokes can compete with anyone, we KNOW they can. We're realistic about our chances, but they play the game for a reason, and the ball bounces in funny ways sometimes.

We believe it. You should expect nothing less.

GO POKES!

one thing you should never do is underestimate your opponent, i know how all you big school fans are, and don't give the little guy a chance in hell, one of these days I'm gonna be there when we do beat a big boy, see the game for what is otherwise why the hell are we even making the trek to Autzen then???? besides the paycheck, i can't wait til the Power 5 break away so we Little guys have our own thing to play for. Any team in current D1 can be a Boise St, why not this year, our schedule stacks up if there was a year to pull the upsets, why not us. don't freak too much when we take the lead in this game early from your hangover from that MSU game, we know we can't win, but I'm gonna be there to see it if for nothing but the experience only....GO POKES

Compare alumni? I had to check to see who would be some of your famous alumni. Hell, you're not kidding. You have a guy that runs sweatshops across Asia, the Bionic Woman, Johnny Fever from WKRP and Uncle Joe from Petticoat Junction. We have Fennis Dembo. Suck on that for a while.
