The Pac-12 home opener for the 13th-ranked Oregon Ducks proved to be a full on S-T-R-U-G-G-L-E Saturday night inside Autzen Stadium. In recent seasons, bouts with Cal have proven to be games in which the Oregon offense has exploded to life. In fact, in their previous eight games against the Bears, Oregon had scored 40 […]
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 […]
It’s hard to articulate how exactly we got here with Devon Williams. In fact, it’s possible that Oregon head coach Mario Cristobal, Oregon State head coach Jonathan Smith, and perhaps even Williams himself would have a tough time taking you step-by-step through the process and the outcome. However, what we can say with crystal clear […]
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 […]
It’s impossible to ignore the details of last year’s game between the Ducks and Cardinal, especially when looking ahead to Saturday’s renewal of a Pac-12 North division rivalry that has only taken serious root within the last decade. Ask any Duck fan who they believe Oregon’s most hated rival is, and likely more than 90 […]
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 […]
There’s been no secrets surrounding Oregon’s issues at wide receiver. Whether it’s general ineffectiveness (particularly last year) or the dizzying number of injuries the Ducks have suffered at the position since fall camp broke in August, Oregon’s shortcomings at receiver have been a protracted storyline that has yet to come full circle. The good news, […]
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 […]
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 […]
