Smell of Roses and Defeat

Let's just be honest, I am angry. I am an Oregon Duck supporter and last night was a terrible lose for the Ducks. The Big Ten and Ohio State think they are champions of the world and did play a solid game that because of the problems Oregon has was unable to overcome the Buckeyes.

Oregon on defense was pushed around. Also the depth in our secondary hurt us as well, loosing three starting corners to injury throughout the year, TJ Ward the starting safety being out most of the season with injury and our defensive front in a rebuilding stage was bad. Then our offense was shut down and loosing LaMichael James the best freshman tailback in the country with an injury in the middle of the game was rough when the Ducks had a chance to get back into the game at the 2nd quarter.

But this was not our year, looking at the depth chart, the players on the scout team that will be coming in next year along with the players returning, Masoli, James Barner, etc. The Ducks will have a solid team for next year, this year they were supposed to finish 5th in the conference and ended up winning it instead. Wait til next year when the Ducks have all of their play makers healthy and ready to go. Go DUCKS!
