So much about what we know and have come to expect with regard to just about everything has been more or less flipped on its head in 2020. Thus, it almost kind of makes sense when you examine the unexpected role reversal of preseason expectations that appears to be taking place between the Oregon offense […]
The last time the Oregon football program scored a victory in Pullman, the year was 2014 and the Ducks were a team that was marching their way toward the inaugural College Football Playoff led by the sublime talents of a soon-to-be Heisman Trophy winner in Marcus Mariota. Much has changed in the six years that […]
In a year in which very little has seemingly gone right or according to plan, Saturday offered up a slice of normalcy for those yearning for it as 2020 mercifully comes to a close.

There’s no doubt that these are strange times we’re living in. With the coronavirus outbreak bringing life as we know it to an unprecedented standstill for the foreseeable future, there’s been little sense of normalcy in recent days.

As 11th-ranked Oregon prepares to take on Washington State this Saturday under the lights at Autzen Stadium, they do so knowing full well the recent history of the game that pits these tepid Pacific Northwest rivals.
