In recent memory, has there been a Duck position group that has been more maligned over the course of an entire year than Oregon’s wide receivers were in 2018? It certainly feels like there hasn’t, and that’s in spite of the fact that last season’s unit produced the best single-season receiving performance in school history thanks […]
It feels almost incomprehensible considering the start of the February signing period was just a few short weeks ago, but ready or not, the unofficial start of the 2019 season is right around the corner. March 7 marks the beginning of spring football for the Ducks, and similar to last year, the Ducks will have […]
With the late cycle drama surrounding the signature of four-star wide receiver Puka Nacua now officially put to bed, the time has come to similarly put a bow on Oregon’s 2019 recruiting class – an epic recruiting haul that saw the Ducks finish in the top 10 of the national recruiting rankings for the first […]
Flock Thoughts is a sporadic series at WFOD that aims to offer opinion and analysis on a collection of newsworthy items surrounding the Oregon football program that don’t necessarily warrant their own in-depth piece. Think of it as going to Costco for the samples, but just replace the nice ladies in hairnets and plastic gloves […]

Despite the game being played under picture perfect Bay Area skies Monday afternoon, the play on the field inside Levi’s Stadium was anything but picturesque. Seeking their ninth win of the season and their first ever bowl victory under head coach Mario Cristobal, the Ducks overcame a historically ghastly offensive performance to defeat the Michigan […]
A season that has provided both thrilling highs and crushing lows is reaching its final chapter. The Redbox Bowl showdown between the Oregon Ducks and the Michigan State Spartans inside Levi’s Stadium on Monday afternoon has the makings of a game that could stand to shape narratives both this season and for seasons to come. […]
The game was rainy, sloppy, and ultimately uncompetitive, but it was exactly the kind of showing Oregon needed to close out the 2018 regular season. A first half injury to quarterback Justin Herbert and quarter-long suspension to wide receiver Dillon Mitchell aside, the Ducks’ 55-15 win over Oregon State Friday afternoon undoubtedly served as the […]
The speed in which the college football season flies by never ceases to amaze. It feels like it was only yesterday that we were previewing the season, armed with questions surrounding what the 2018 edition of Oregon football would look like under first-year head coach Mario Cristobal.
