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 the perfect […]
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 […]
DJ Uiagalelei. Kendall Milton. Justin Flowe. Sav’ell Smalls. Elias Ricks. Kelee Ringo. Darnell Washington. What do these seven names have in common? In addition to being considered five-star prospects out West in 2020 (per 247Sports’ Composite Rankings), each of these players is either currently committed to a school outside of the Pac-12 footprint, or is […]
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. […]
Raise your hand if you were expecting Saturday’s result in Tucson! Certainly there were things to be concerned about following Oregon’s uneven performance at Washington State last week, but beyond a few select diehards in the Tucson area, it’s hard to imagine anyone soberly envisioning the events that transpired inside Arizona Stadium Saturday night. In […]
Following a wild and woolly first half of the football season, teams across the country are gearing up for a final stretch run that they hope either cements their place atop the conference standings, or at a minimum, secures bowl eligibility. For the 19th-ranked Oregon Ducks, bowl eligibility is all but confirmed, though they do […]
With five games down and seven more to go, the 18th-ranked Oregon Ducks will get an opportunity this week to take a step back, take a deep breath, and assess the progress they’ve made through the early portion of their schedule. Sporting an imperfect 4-1 record, optimism around the program is understandably high heading into […]
The 2018 season may have officially kicked off three weeks ago, but for the 20th-ranked Oregon Ducks, the rubber meets the road for real Saturday night when they take on the 7th-ranked Stanford Cardinal in their Pac-12 opener inside Autzen Stadium. Ever since the 2018 schedule was finalized, those of us outside the program have […]
It’s not often that there are many nits to pick following a 58-24 victory, but for Oregon head coach Mario Cristobal and the Ducks, there will be plenty to chew on, digest, and ultimately remedy once preparations for next Saturday’s game versus Portland State begin. In short, Oregon’s 34-point win in their season opener versus […]
With three non-Power 5 teams on Oregon’s non-conference schedule (including one FCS opponent in Portland State), compiling a list of keys to victory over the next few weeks for the Ducks may seem like a fruitless effort. And it very well might be, as Oregon has made a habit of drilling Group of Five and […]
