Inside the Playbook: USC 44, Oregon 10
Thanks to tipsters that might or might not have originated from this page, we have obtained exclusive copy of Nick Allotti’s defensive plans for the USC game. Despite the seeming brilliance that lies from such a gameplan, the Ducks fell a little short. In order to avoid copyright issues, we have created our own renditions of these defensive schemes and will let you be the judge if this was the proper way to stop the Trojans in their tracks.
1st down strategy seems pretty basic, 2nd down strategy unique, 3rd down strategy revolutionary. We’ll have to see if the brilliant Oregon Duck secondary (ranked #1 by Phil Steele) will be able to utilize these schemes effectively in future games. Work in progress, methinks.

Crap.
We're screwed for the rest of the season.

If our boosters put as much pressure on Mike Bellotti as they do Ernie Kent, Nick Alliotti would probably have been fired a long time ago. And maybe we would have more than two (only one outright) pac-10 titles during MB's tenure.
Ernie Kent has 2 pac-10 tourney titles, and one pac-10 season title.. not really all that different than Bellotti, yet EK has almost been fired like 3-4 times. Bellotti hasn't even felt the heat, not even after we went 5-6 in 04. Its a joke.

As a pretty pissed off Duck fan I've got to say that this post…
…looks exactly like what I saw on Saturday night.
Oh and screw you bears, you'll do no better!!

On the bright side, half of the remaining quarterbacks you play can't throw deep.

Duck Fan here. Glad someone finally pointed out JUST how shitty Alliotti is.. My god how long and how many years can a defense underachieve before someone fucking pays for it.. AHHHHHHHHHHH!

it took a 6 turnover Ayoobocide for us to do 9 points BETTER than you in 2005.
Cal/SC in the Tedford Era:
2pt loss, win, 6pt loss, 25pt loss, 14pt loss, 7pt loss, we'll see 11/8
in the same span, oregon has lost to USC by 11, 32, 25, win and 34.
btw, you didn't play them in their 2 NC years(03 & 04) but surely those 8-5 and 5-6 Oregon teams would've smoked SC!

I dunno. I think they'll start playing well now that they got publicly exposed. Allotti plays well with his back to the wall.

We shouldn't really be bragging about how superior our 1-5 record is to Oregon's 1-4 record.
