Take Two is usually about looking at something twice — not because the first impression was necessarily wrong, but because there is often more underneath it. Saturday night in Los Angeles gave us two very different examples of that. One involved the quarterback position and what happens next with Dante Moore and Dylan Raiola. The other had very little to do with scheme, statistics or even the final score.
Both are ultimately about leadership, judgment and what happens after a moment changes the direction of a game. One is a football question Oregon may or may not have to answer in the coming weeks. The other is much larger than football, because standards only matter when someone is willing to enforce them at the exact moment doing so is hardest.
That is where this week’s Take Two begins.
