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 […]
By the time the 16th-ranked Ducks take the field in Palo Alto this coming Saturday vs. the Stanford Cardinal, 364 days will have passed since Oregon suffered one of its most infamous and inexplicable losses in program history. In case you somehow need a refresher, the game was last year’s 38-31 overtime defeat to what […]
For a full decade (plus a year) spanning either parts or the entire tenures of three head coaches (Mike Bellotti, Chip Kelly, Mark Helfrich), the Oregon Ducks ruled the roost when it came who led the Pac-10/12 in rushing offense. In fact, from 2006 to 2016, the Ducks not only led the conference in rushing […]
To make sense of Oregon’s recruiting landscape over the coming weeks and months, WFOD will be rolling out its 2020 Recruiting Big Board at the beginning of every week between now and the final signing period taking place in February.

The good news, […]

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 […]
One more non-conference opponent remains for the 15th-ranked Ducks before Pac-12 play begins in earnest the following Saturday at Stanford. Coming off last week’s 77-6 destruction of Nevada, Saturday’s game vs. FCS opponent Montana provides an opportunity to fine tune some things before the rubber really meets road over the next several weeks. To this […]
Fresh off a thorough 77-6 beat down of Nevada in last Saturday’s home opener at Autzen Stadium, the newly minted 15th-ranked Oregon Ducks turn their focus this week to FCS opponent Montana, which heads to Eugene this upcoming Saturday to close out the Ducks’ non-conference schedule.
