Cost them the game. They had more opportunities than Auburn. That pussy bullshite zone read finesse running they tried on the goal line cost them the game.

When push came to shove, they couldn't man up and get the last 2 yards. That shite doesn't work against SEC teams.

It is the truth. Oregon probably should have won, but came out with like three straight bs finesse run calls inside the 5.

You either throw the ball down there, or you man up, put your fullbacks in (not even sure Oregon HAS fullbacks), and run straight ahead.

Sure. I'm not trying to take anything away from Auburn.

I'm just trying to illustrate how close the game was, and why Oregon lost.

They lost because they have no power run game.

Oregon would not have even tied the game had it not been for that ref who got in the way of the AU defender who was going to tackle the oregon receiver before the 1st down marker

How about the two wide open receivers Cam missed for a TD?

I mean, Dyer killed them on the last drive, not Newton.

It is part of the game, dude. The Oregon player probably did that on purpose, which was smart.

You remember a few years back when the refs of the LSU-USCe game gave a forearm shiver to ole Stephen Garcia?

Part of the field.

Yes. And frick you. Oregon had more red zone opportunities than Auburn and that is a fact.

Makes me question whether you watched the game.
