Default Re: 2007 Pac 10 football thread

Sad day for the Ducks. Along with Dixon's knee went possible Heisman, National Title hopes, and perhaps marquee Bowl game as well.

I hope the coaching staff can recover and plan for a Leaf-led offense. The offense looked terrible for a long time until Leaf finally showed some confidence with some short passes.

I felt the coaches took too long to adjust and let Leaf throw it downfield; if other teams follow Arizona's plan they'll stack the box and force Leaf to throw downfield. Where was the pump and go type routes that looked like they would have worked?

Well if Ore receivers can't catch even easy passes like they were doing last night, I think Oregon is in for huge struggles at UCLA. Sad thing was the defense did do enough to keep them in the game.
