  6. Napier said it's nothing that will go past next week. More precautionary.....I hope. Our season rests on that young man's arm.
  7. I am really opposed to large numbers of AQs for the so-called Power 2. Weight schedules like Basketball does with RPI. Nobody bitches about that formula, and it actually rewards schools that schedule highly competitive OOC games like Georgia-Clemson last year and Ohio State-Texas this year. \ Wouldn't most Duck fans get jacked up to play games against such OOC opponents like Notre Dame or Miami rather than Portland State or Montana State? Oregon does play Oregon State this year and Georgia always plays Georgia Tech, but I, as a Dawg fan, would much rather substitute say Wisconsin or Michigan for one of our walkovers. I know most Dawg partisans feel precisely the same way. Play challenging schedules and kick down the barriers to the playoffs by winning big games in such schedules. And as a Duck fan, I would love to see Notre Dame and Miami for example.
  8. I think it's Great. Yes I've been to a few shows. It brings in some of the culture and history of the area!

  10. I really hope the tie-dye is just what the fans are expected to wear. I have a great deal of respect for the Nike team that develops OBD’s new uniforms, but a Greatful Dead uniform combo might be on par with Lewis & Clark, Webfoots, et al.

  12. Every college football season, the Oregon Ducks make waves each and every week by announcing their new uniform combinations and having their fans dress up accordingly. Earlier this offseason, the Ducksannounced their weekly color schedule, telling fans when to wear green, yellow, or black. On Wednesday, they updated that schedule, though. While Duck fans were originally told that the colors for Oregon's game on October 25th against the Wisconsin Badgers were to be determined, they finally learned what colors to wear this week. In reality, fans are now encouraged to wear all of the colors. While the fans are to wear tie-dye for the game, it is not clear yet what the team will be wearing, and if the jerseys will be themed for the occasion. tie-dye Grateful Dead-themed game
  13. You are incredibly consistent with your request on this, and as Jon suggests--if we move to four teams from the B1G and SEC each...then the losses in nonconference will not harm Oregon making the Playoff, since it is dependent upon making the top four in the B1G. So cheer for the new format to be approved in the next year, because if it does--your dream could happen. Without automatic qualifiers--we don't dare lose a non-conference game, as it will hurt the overall record and lose the respect of the crazy committee deciding "on the data." But if we believe we can make the B1G top four--we can schedule a home-and-home with the 'Tide, and it won't hurt us. Blockbuster games...huge eyes on it, fun atmosphere, big money for the programs... How about a home-and-home with Miami? How lit-up would Autzen get?
  14. Athletic Director Rob Mullens joins Joey Mac talking all-things Ducks.The Game day color to wear at the Wisconsin game will be Tie Dye. More announcement to come on this. Oregon Ducks announce tie-dye Grateful Dead-themed game vs. Wisconsin
  15. I agree with the first four you mention, with Illinois being in the top 16 last year, and with good prospects for this year. I agree about Washington within three years challenging to be in the top B1G group. A sleeper we cannot overlook is Michigan State with Jonathan Smith there--he coaches teams up superbly.
  16. My friend, that would be the 4-4-2-2-1-3 format that B1G commissioner Tony Petitti is backing. With 4 AQs and the committee out of the equation for choosing the four teams, and 4 AQs for the SEC, a B1G/SEC football challenge would be likely to happen. It could take a while as teams clear their existing OOC schedules, but the money from such a series would justify paying teams off to get out of scheduled OOC games. Then add a conference champ game and two PO play-in games in the last week of the regular season, and more money rolls in. Sankey switching to a 5-11 format is not for the good of the game but, in his reasoning, for the good of his conference. Why Sankey wants to leave money behind so the SEC's weak sisters can go 6-6 and qualify for a bowl game, well, I don't get it. On the other hand, your spot-on comment, I get 100%.
  17. I just want the CFP model that would let us still schedule a good team like Alabama in non-conference play...
  18. History is history. Too many of the programs that won decades ago still think they deserve some special consideration. You have to earn respect every day. Notre Dame last won the NC in 1988. 37 years ago. Nearly half of college football fans were not even born. Totally understand the NBC contract at the time......but it's 2025. Time to join the BIG.
  19. Notre Dame and NBC money.... aside from the Big Ten, is there any other conference with NBC as a partner that would make the membership transition easy? Would be interesting to see the results of an open bidding process for Notre Dame? My guess is that each of the four major conferences would be willing to consider an unequal higher share at least for a period of time? Though the SEC didn't offer that to Texas. The Pac12 didn't offer it to USC to retain them, or the Big12 to Texas to retain them.
  20. And, when it comes to unis, B1G players are unified. OBD is No. 1.😁 YardbarkerBig Ten Athletes React To Oregon Ducks Uniforms in New Vi...At Big Ten Media Days, some of college football's biggest stars were featured in online content.

  23. On3's JD Pickell's 2025-26 PO prediction. No. 1 LSU, No. 2 TOSU, No. 3 Clemson, and No. 4 Texas, with PO seeding mirroring the committee's final ranking on 12/7/25, have 1st round byes. Five SEC teams and three B1G teams are in the PO field. One Independent, ACC, B12, and G5 JMU are in the field. Pickell has No. 6 Penn State defeating No. 11 Notre Dame in Happy Valley before losing to No. 3 Clemson. LSU is projected to be the SEC champ, Ohio State the B1G champ, Clemson the ACC champ, and Baylor the B12 champ. The Sun Belt's James Madison U represents the G5. 5 seed Oregon opens against 12 seed JMU in Autzen and defeats No. 4 Texas in the second round, before losing to LSU in the semifinals. 2nd-ranked Ohio State defeats 10th-ranked Baylor and 3rd-ranked Clemson before losing to No. 1 seed LSU in the champ game. That's a whole lot of love for Brian Kelly and his Bayou Bengals. The B1G would go 6-3 in this scenario, a nice payday for the B1G. The SEC would go 4-4, not a very good showing, but a return to championship status. Not sure why the Gamecocks players are cheering? At 9-3, they miss the PO field.

  24. Personally I'd love to see the jumbo package come back out. This is what we did under Dillingham and i'd love to see this stuff come back for short yardage. https://fishduck.com/2022/10/oregon-football-is-the-embodiment-of-modern-physicality/ Don't really need a different QB to run it... Usually I dislike using a second QB for a particular package because it becomes a tell as to what's being run. But I love a jumbo short yardage package.
  25. I love and respect many things about Notre Dame. I love the history. I love Rudy. I love the fact Notre Dame not only has great football players, but great young men with high academic achievements. I love the song "Here Come The Irish". I love coach Holtz, even if he's a bit over the top. I love the sign "Play Like a Champion. I love Touchdown Gosh. I love the uniforms. But it's time for Notre Dame to join a conference. Actually it's time for college football to let Notre Dame know it's time to join a conference. Nobody has gotten more favorable positions than Notre Dame. They didn't have to split any of their playoff run revenue. They get that massive NBC deal, and they get their own special seat with the CFP committee. Time to save the ACC and join up Notre Dame.
