For a second consecutive week, the Ducks have suffered a season-ending injury to a key senior contributor. A week ago vs. Cal, senior defensive end Gus Cumberlander sustained a season-ending knee injury in the fourth quarter of Oregon’s 17-7 win over the Bears, effectively ending his career as a Duck. This week, the injury bug […]
Through six games this season, the 13th-ranked Ducks have enjoyed some fairly dominant performances. In fact, just about every victory that Oregon has scored to this point in the season – with the possible exception of the Cal game – has felt like a game in which the Ducks have effectively held down their opponents […]
The bye week for Oregon is firmly in the books, and while the timing of the open date seemingly came at the perfect time for the Ducks, the anticipation for Saturday’s game vs. Cal inside Autzen Stadium is palpable. It’s true, the matchup between the Ducks and Bears has lost a little luster since last […]
The Ducks have endured five full weeks of the college football season using duct tape and twine to hold together a wide receiver group that was essentially gutted due to multiple long-term injuries suffered during fall camp.

The good news, […]

Instead, the Auburn Tigers came roaring back, scoring 21 unanswered points to cap off […]
There are tough losses, and then there are losses that absolutely gnaw at every fiber of your being. On Saturday night in Arlington, Texas, the 11th-ranked Oregon Ducks experienced the latter in stunning and agonizing fashion, falling to 16th-ranked Auburn, 27-21. For 59 minutes and 51 seconds of game action, the Ducks never trailed. That […]
Game day is nearly here! And while roughly 24 hours separate us from the clash between no. 11 Oregon and no. 16 Auburn inside AT&T Stadium Saturday night in Arlington, the countdown to kickoff can’t come fast enough. We’ve already discussed what’s at stake for Oregon in this game, we’ve closely examined the opponent, and have […]
