Raziel Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Is anyone else scared that we've watched 3 quarters of a football with out some totally blown call by the refs. I mean there is a bit of question about the Ducks 70 yrd TD but I think that pales in comparison to Dez or The flag. NCAA refs > NFL Refs? That's painful to say.

Brian Fowler Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 4 Ohio running backs have win a combined five heisman trophies. None of them ever had back to back 200 yard games. Elliott is having his third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Wow. Both teams are shaking over how close that play was. Almost a pick, almost a huge gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Empty backfield and you only rush three, and coverage breaks down. Jesus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 If you can't stop the run at all, I think you're fucked. Oregon can't even slow it down right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVA Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Seriously, how did Elliott get this good in between the Michigan game and the Wisconsin murder? It can't just be Jones's deep ball backing off the safeties, can it? The offense changed. When Barrett was playing, it was more of that quasi-single wing offensive philosophy where everything is designed to feature the QB, like Tebow at Florida. When he went out, and with a somewhat unknown commodity at QB, they went to more of a straight forward, power rushing/play action passing game. Essentially, he went from being a complementary piece to being asked to shoulder the load, and obviously, he was up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Do be fair, nothing short of the Great Wall of China could stop Elliot right now. And even then, I'd have my doubts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They moved away from a lot of that after the Virgina Tech disaster. Put in that jet sweep and associated plays package and worked on getting the tailbacks outside more to counter that. They definitely are running him more dive Barret went down, but the offense shift happened long before that. And, again, he was good, but he's been a revelation these last three games.

Niners Fan in CT Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Oregon's "improved defense" has been getting gashed all damn night. Their offense hasn't clicked at all either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipGofern Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I don't watch a ton of college football but just from this bowl season, it seems like protecting the QB isn't a concern there at all. Maybe the spread type offenses have something to do with it, I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defense did play better the back half of this season, but against a team that can match their athleticism, they just can't handle the power game at all. Same story 5 years ago with Auburn.
