Cal faking injuries against Oregon?

[U-Ute]

It certainly seems so from this video...

I guess that's one way of slowing them down.

Brilliant. They were talking about this all game.

Teams have been doing this all year against Oregon.

What is really funny is the Cal fans justification for doing it and blaming it on the Ducks not being classy. I don't really have a problem with other teams doing this against Oregon and don't think it is classless. It is kind of a wussy thing to do because it is basically saying we can't stop your offense without faking injuries and in that respect it is a compliment to Oregon.

"Running a high speed offense tires other players. Shocking, I know. You know what the coaches probably told them? Don’t try to play through a cramp, go down and get out. Since normal teams plays slow enough that they could normally limp off in time to sub out, they don’t have to go down. Because of the way that Oregon plays, the only way a team can get an injury sub (even a minor injury like a cramp) is by stopping play."

Oregon is running a gimmick to prevent the defense from making substitutions. We did the same to make our substitutions. Pretty hypocritical for Oregon fans to boo injuries (especially when some, like Anthony's, were caused by their illegal and dirty play) when they are running a gimmick themselves. Stay classy, ducks.

Tulsa did the same thing against BYU in 2007.
