00:00We've got Jerry Allen with us, a pleasure, the legendary voice of the Oregon Ducks.

00:09What a game Saturday night at Outsen and Eugene.

00:12What a scene there on Saturday all day with the game day show there.

00:17And then just a fantastic classic of a football game, Jerry, I gotta tell you, I thought Gabriel

00:24was fantastic.

00:26He had the 27-yard Tuddy run in the fourth quarter early on that gave him a lead.

00:32But Ohio State went down the field and kicked a field goal.

00:39And I think it was about a 40-yarder or something.

00:41But then Oregon got down and kicked one, Atticus Savington kicked one, and that was the difference.

00:47But for me, Gabriel was the difference in the game.

00:51Not to forget about Jordan James' big game.

00:54I thought he ran the ball terrifically for the Ducks.

00:56But talk about what Gabriel brings to the table for Dan Lanning.

01:01Well, Scott, thanks for having me on.

01:04Dylan Gabriel brings calm to the offense.

01:08He brings composure to the offense.

01:11And I don't care how tight it is or what's going on.

01:14He just has a presence about him.

01:16He's a veteran, so one would expect that.

01:19But you never see him upset.

01:21You don't get a good look at his face on a camera shot.

01:24He just looks in control.

01:26And I think that's the biggest thing that he brings other than the skill set that he has.

01:31I mean, 23 of 34 for 341.

01:34The touchdown ran for 32 yards, four carries, none bigger than that.

01:40Tuddy, what a scene that place is for college football.

01:45Like, I'm watching a game.

01:46I'm just like, what an atmosphere.

01:48What a stadium.

01:49I've been there.

01:50It's just a terrific place to watch a game.

01:53It's the most beautiful setting.

01:56You know, I'd say Pasadena, the Rose Bowl, and the stadium at Eugene Outsen

02:01are the two most beautiful college football stadiums I've ever been to in my life.

02:06Well, I appreciate that.

02:08To be compared to the Rose Bowl at Pasadena, the Granddaddy at Mall,

02:12that's pretty special.

02:13It's unbelievable that 60,000 fans, Scott, can sound as loud as they do.

02:18The configuration of the stadium with an overhang.

02:21We talked to some Ohio State fans afterwards

02:24who said that's the loudest football game they've ever been a part of.

02:27So it's pretty special.

02:29The view, the Cascade Mountains, the Willamette Valley, we're pretty spoiled.

02:33We like it.

02:34And so it's fun to call it our home.
