Big Ten Statement On Oregon/UCLA Game

ROSEMONT, Illinois -- With 2:16 remaining in the fourth quarter of Saturday’s UCLA-Oregon game, Big Ten officials incorrectly officiated Oregon’s final two-point conversion attempt.

Following the first attempt that resulted in a personal foul penalty for a facemask on the UCLA defense, the ball was spotted for the second attempt half-the-distance to the goal from the original line of scrimmage of the first attempt. Per rule, the ball should have been spotted half-the-distance to the goal from the end of the run of the first attempt.

The Big Ten has been in contact with its officiating team from Saturday’s game regarding the error and will continue to emphasize consistent application of the playing rules.

Question Madden vs Diffenbach

35 Upvotes

Now that we know that Nico is out, we also know that the qb position is between both of them.

I’m a fairly new football watcher. What distinguishes both of them from each other and given what we saw of them this year briefly, what makes diffenbach a likely qb1 over madden?

Discussion UCLA's GOAT RB

20 Upvotes

Been thinking about this because my dad and I were discussing it the other day. We've had some sneaky good running backs over the years despite not being considered Running Back U. DeShaun, Charbs, Franklin/Jetski, MJD, among many others. Heck even Paul Perkins was a stud. Who's your GOAT? Feel free to include Wayne Knight in the conversation despite only playing five games with us cuz he's such a stud.

My GOAT is honestly Charbs. If he were around as long as those other guys, I think he surpasses all of them in yardage and TDs. He just felt almost unstoppable when he was in. Wish he had a good defense. If you guys remember, our defense actually started off okay that season under McGovern but then he got cancer unfortunately (RIP) and Clancy Pendergast/the DC committee completely ruined it.

Opinion/Rant So proud of this team. The Oregon focused narrative surrounding the win has been frustrating

78 Upvotes

That was such a gritty win and I’m so proud of the passion and toughness they’ve shown this year. During the game, it felt like the broadcast kept talking about Oregon’s mistakes, Oregon’s offense issues, blah blah, instead of how well UCLA’s defense played. And that’s been a consistent narrative since the end of the game as well. The defense forced those 7 turnovers, they weren’t gifts. Turnovers have been part of our game all year and it’s a focus point for them.

It’s been annoying to see so many instances of people essentially saying Oregon lost the game instead of UCLA won the game. ā€œRaiola was horrible and that’s their back up QBā€ yeah, but that’s the same QB who shredded USC two weeks ago. And no one seems to mention Nico didn’t have a great game either and we had our back up for the entire second half. That didn’t stop our ability to win the game. Wayne Knight is a stud and our defense is rolling.

Ultimately, I think I get where it comes from. We’ve been a perennial mid team for so long that people can’t help but focus on our opponent, win or lose. We’ve gotta earn that respect by continuing to play well and continuing to win.

Curious if y’all have experienced the same or if I’m off base. Anyway, rant over, and see you at the Rose Bowl next weekend 🫔

Discussion QB1 situation, I want to know what you all think.

35 Upvotes

So, after yesterday, I don't have confidence in Nico to take care of the ball or stay healthy. How at his height he gets balls batted down drives me nuts. I was happy with the decision to go with Dieffenbach yesterday. I think he is the more steady and accurate option. Now, depending on how practice goes this week, who do you want to see at QB1 against Wisconsin?

From article:

ā€œWhy they could be here: The Bruins have three Power 4 road wins, including a 54-3 cross-country drubbing of Maryland followed by Saturday's 17-15 victory at Oregon. Beating a ranked Oregon team in Autzen Stadium legitimizes UCLA's place in the ranking, as it's notoriously one of the most difficult venues in the country for visitors. This was UCLA's first triumph there since 2004. It was also its first win this season against a Power 4 opponent with a winning record. UCLA entered the Oregon game with the 113th-ranked schedule in the country.

Why they could be lower: The committee might not think Oregon's that good. The Ducks had seven turnovers (and at one point had lost the ball more times than they had made a first down). The group would also know that Oregon was down to its third-string quarterback with Dante Moore still sidelined because of a concussion and his backup, Dylan Raiola, benched in the second half after completing just 32% of his passes to start the game.

Need to know: UCLA had a 1% chance to reach the playoff entering the season, according to the Allstate Playoff Predictor, but that skyrocketed to 33% following the win against Oregon. UCLA is now favored in each of its next five games, according to ESPN Analytics, before ending its season at Michigan and at home against USC. The Bruins' next three games are at home against Wisconsin, Michigan State and Nevada.
Toughest remaining game: Nov. 28 vs. USC. ESPN's FPI gives USC a 55.8% chance to win.

Just wondering if the general admission ticket is more or less student section. Is GA just a bleacher seat (compared to actual seats otherwise) but not necessarily student section
