Tuesday Morning Quarterback: Film review of week 2 vs Portland St

Related Topics: Film

For the second straight week, the game entered garbage time before the second quarter was over. But even though we have half as much film to work with, there’s still quite a few interesting things we can go over.

Offense

Oregon didn’t meet a whole lot of resistance - of the few unsuccessful plays the Ducks ran, almost all were due to their own errors, such as a few drops, one errant throw, and a couple of bad snaps. These things aren’t real useful to examine on film because it’s obvious what went wrong. However, the upside is that the offense is (unlike last week when they were still running a whole lot of pre-Mastro offset zone read formations) now almost fully converted to pistol looks, and we can learn the base playbook in a vacuum, so to speak.
