The way the grass moved it looked like field turf, but it does appear to be grass. Not sure what they did to get the field to act that way.

It's natural grass from Oregon.

 

And lots of s***ty offensive reads tonight.

Damn my prediction was going to be that after this game people would think neither team deserved to be NC.

Ten minutes in, and this game is awful.

They actually roll it out into the sun to grow and then roll it back in and fill in the gaps in pieces.

 

I've seen alot of Fiesta bowls.

Yeah I remembered after you said something (they made a big deal when it held the NFL Super Bowl) I more meant I have no idea how they got natural grass to act like field turf and screw up a knee like that.

no its not. All because there hasnt been any scoring doesnt mean its awful.

No, it's awful. Terrible reads by both QBs

It's not like the defensive stops have been great plays. Until just now, both offenses have looked bad.

Oh come on, you know if Oregon was Miami you would be cursing out Jacory right now, because thats about what Thomas has looked like.

 

 

Lamichael James may be the best player on the field, feed him the ball.

We have two finesse offenses who had 40 days off. Did you expect both teams to play flawless?

 

Oregon has moved the ball well twice and has made plays against Newton. Sure there have been some mistakes but I've seen a lot more less entertaining starts to bowl games.

Game is better now.

Late to the show.

 

Auburn wins this game.

 

-not watching, going to sleep.

If by better you mean it reminds me of a Madden game where the other player uses every gimmick to try and win.

 

Id guess the strategy for going for 2 is that you dont believe your defense can stop them, so 14-11 is a fg versus 14-10 needing a td.

I dont think Oregon has a theory for going for 2. They've gone for two on opening touchdowns. They just do it just because they can.

That was a gift wrapped TD Auburn just gave away. They are going to regret that.

That pass reminded me of Clayton Richard trying to throw to first.

So the guy who drew 6-1 in the square pool is pretty happy tonight...

This game is back to being pretty mediocre. I still don't understand why more teams don't do a qb sneak on 4th and inches at the goal line.

10 yards and in is some what the kryponite of spread option offense. The defense can get close to the line of scrimmage and the offense is 3-4 yards behind it.

Cam Newton got shaken up on that 3rd down run, no doubt.

Yeah he is hurting, he just went down on the next play instead of getting contact, and you could tell on the zone read he never even considered taking the ball.

Someone needs to tell Chip that anything up the middle isn't going to work against Auburn's defense.

Does he always dive so much when he runs with the ball? It definitely looks like he is hurting.

Oregon not having a big back who can run north and south will be the difference in this game. Too many key short yardage situations have been wasted by the Ducks.
