    Ya, Cal gave us our last conference home loss, 4 years ago, and we don't lose many home games.

    (We have an absurd home field advantage, not sure why, but our team plays MASSIVELY better at home, it's how we beat a crazy good Stanford team last year by 21.)

    Yep and Chip is 0-2 at neutral sites, lets hope he keeps that record. You do know that I'm calling this game the "Cowboy Bowl" just because of Chips bowl record......:thumb:

    Chip Kelly in his 1st game Boise ran the ball 50 plus times - Ducks lost

    OSU Rose Bowl - they ran the ball 50 times - Ducks lost

    Auburn - ran the ball 50 plus times - Ducks lost


    I will bet you 100 cokes that LSU will run the ball 50 plus times - Ducks will loose

    You left out....

    In 2009, unranked Stanford 52 times for 254 yds. - Ducks lost 51-42

    The formula for beating the Ducks this Saturday night is 40/50/60...

    40+ minutes in Time of Possession

    50+ rushing attempts

    60+ minutes of DOMINATING YOUR OPPONENT

    LSU has a history of not playing to their potential for a full 60 minutes!

    We all remember the UNC game - we blew a huge lead and came close to losing that one.

    Tennessee - don't remind me

    FL and Ole Miss were WAY to close to being an L for us instead off us dominating a much weaker opponent.

    Many people have posted the 40 TOP and the 50 rushes but if LSU does not play a complete game for 60 minutes then we may lose a close one!

    This is LSU's game. We have all the mojo going into this one. Here's hoping we carry that mentality of stepping on your opponents throat and keep him pinned down on the mat for a full 60 minutes this Saturday night.

    GEAUX!

    Easy...... pluck the duck with the run all night long. Do not pass unless you need to. Control the clock.

    We must pass early and often or they will be able to shut down the running game. Balance is the key on offense.

    On defense the key is to stay at home and protect your area. Oregon likes to move playmakers all over the field, catch someone out of position and make a big play. Chavis' "bend but don't break" defensive philosophy is perfect to defend Oregon.
