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 […]
The timeline for recovery and preparation has been sped up for Oregon head coach Mario Cristobal and the Ducks, as Friday is game day this week for the Ducks and Colorado Buffaloes. For Oregon, Friday’s game offers an opportunity for the Duck offense to redeem itself to a degree after what can only be described […]
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 […]
There’s a different kind of anticipation in the air as we approach Saturday’s game between the Ducks and Bears. Two weeks ago, this game was billed as a potential opportunity for the victor to assume the inside track for the Pac-12 North title. And while those implications haven’t completely faded, the magnitude of the game […]
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. 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 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, […]
