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 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. However, fingers crossed, it appears they won’t have to go a sixth week without some of their biggest […]
The bye week has come for Oregon football, and the general feeling around the program is that the timing couldn’t be any more, well, timely. With injuries riddling the offense, the running game in a current state of disrepair, and an emotional victory over Stanford squarely in the rear-view mirror, it truly does feel like […]
A win is a win is a win, and while the 16th-ranked Ducks picked up their first win in a Pac-12 opener since 2014, they looked anything but complete in their 21-6 victory over the Stanford Cardinal Saturday night in Palo Alto. Buoyed once again by a dominating defensive effort and a virtually spotless performance […]
It may not have been the incredible display of dominance that was seen during last week’s 77-6 win over Nevada, but there was certainly no doubt as to who was the deeper, more talented team Saturday night inside Autzen Stadium. Led by another impressive effort from both the Oregon defense and quarterback Justin Herbert, the […]
Traditionally speaking, sports fans have a reputation for being somewhat unreasonable when it comes to following and rooting for their favorite teams. Fairly or unfairly, fan expectations are always high, and when the team you root for falls short of that standard, it can be a maddening thing. However, on days like the one that […]
There was no hangover Saturday evening inside Autzen Stadium. For Duck fans, that came Sunday morning. A week after being handed a soul crushing loss at the hands of the Auburn Tigers in Arlington, Texas, it’s safe to say that 16th-ranked Oregon worked out whatever lingering frustrations they may have had entering the weekend, as […]
This Saturday marks the 2019 home opener for the Ducks. And while they’ll be sporting a 0-1 record in their return to Autzen Stadium, there are reasons to feel bullish if you’re an Oregon fan. For one, for the first time in nearly a decade, it appears the Ducks may have a defense that is […]
Roughly 72 hours later, and the minds of Oregon fans everywhere continue to linger on last Saturday and what might have been had the Ducks held on to a 21-6 lead with just over four minutes remaining in the third quarter. Instead, the Auburn Tigers came roaring back, scoring 21 unanswered points to cap off […]
