Sorry if posted in the wrong place

I think Winston outplays Mariota even though I am pulling for the Ducks.
Thank you NCAA for Making New Years Day relevant to Football fans again.

I'm watching. Should be interesting. Think it's great that we get to see good QBs going against good competition.

I know it's not a playoff game, but I watched the Wisconsin vs. Auburn game. Wisconsin has a stout oline, we should look to them during the draft.

Highly unimpressed by Mariotta.

Missing basic throws all over.

Winston looks decent.

Still a half to play so let's see how it unfolds.

I'm an Oregon fan so I hope we win tonight! I enjoy watching Mariota and Winston battle though.

From what I have seen I don't think either of these guys are all that and I was expecting to see better based on what people have posted about these two.

I'd be very surprised if these 2 aren't the first names called in the draft this year.

I would love to have Winston in horns. Even with the luxury to sit for a year and learn behind Sam.

Not a lot of defense in this game lol.

5 minutes left in the 3rd and we have 45 first downs and over 850 yards from scrimmage......

I have been keeping a close eye on Cameron Irving and if I had to make a bold prediction it would be this kid sneaking into mid first round. He is absolutely moving his men with his size and length. Just look at his arms! He will measure with one of the top wing spans going into the draft. I would love seeing him dawn the horns!

This just in...Winston is pretty good.

That was a hell of a play rolling away from his throwing arm and making a throw with pressure in his face. Good at going through his reads when he has time. Stares down at times, but not overly concerned.

Mariota is an incredible athlete and has mastered this scheme. Hard to know how much of his success comes purely from his offense. If whoever drafts him wants to be successful right away, I would highly recommend not being against changing your entire offense to fit his strengths.

The Rams trading up to #1 and drafting him, while keeping Schotty would probably put me on suicide watch.
