So, there is one time, that I know of, when 3 letters, 2 of them the same, the other identical, form two words. The letters are in different order, the sound is the same, but the meanings are different. What are the two words?

"Opportunity" is definitely how Lanning looks at things, sometimes OBD take advantage of them, sometimes they don't, but that is the positive approach. I agree with the idea of Lowe and the observation that there a lot opportunities in Oregon's WR Room, and whatever room Sadiq wants.

I can pretty much assure you that Georgia's receiver room will look nothing like 2024. The addition of two highly touted portal receivers and the return of an X receiver who was suspended for off-field reasons and exonerated, plus the recruitment of a 5-star Z receiver and another very-high 4-star X receiver promise to spice things up. I might add that there are also three highly touted TEs in addition to the two very capable ones from last year. All these guys can't play at the same time but there are plenty of options.

Could not agree more! Part of baseball is the aesthetics. The sound of a solid hit is as good as there is in sports. Imagine this scene in "the Natural" if Roy Hobbs had an aluminum bat!

Oregon Ducks 2025 Schedule: Top 3 Toughest Opponents WWW.YARDBARKER.COM Ever since the Oregon Ducks 2025 schedule was released, Ducks fans have studied it intently, trying to find key moments in the upcoming season, trap games, and the overall toughness of the... AMEN on the game at Penn State. But at Iowa and USC in the top 3 most difficult games in 2025? How is QB Gronowski transferring from FCS to Iowa going to pan out? I'm not certain that with Mendoza at QB and starters returning on all three levels of the defense, Iowa will be better than Indiana this season. Both Indiana and OBD are idle in Week 6 before the Hoosiers visit Eugene, with OBD coming off its Week 5 road game at Penn State and Indiana off a Week 5 game at Iowa. Both Iowa and OBD are idle before the Week 11 game in Iowa City, with OBD playing Wisconsin in Week 9 and Iowa playing Minnesota. USC should be improved and should finish better than 1-5 in one-score games. However, the penultimate game of the regular season will be played in Autzen Stadium. In 2024, SC was 1-4 on the road. USC will be the second Blue Chip Roster opponent OBD plays in 2025. I think the ultimate game of the regular season at Washington could be more difficult than playing Iowa in Iowa City and SC at home. In 2024, UW went 6-0 in Husky Stadium, defeating USC and Michigan, a Wolverines team with wins against national champ Ohio State and Alabama, in the process. UW QB Demond Williams is the real deal, while looking like a piñata against OBD's defense last season (11 sacks!) Williams still threw for over 200 yards, and he played great in UW's one-point bowl loss to Louisville. He is a better athlete than the Hawkeyes and Trojans will put on the field. Of course, except for the game against the Blue Chip Roster, PSU, this is all a shot in the dark.

Evan Stewart's injury leaves a void in the offense, and someone has to pick up the slack.

Thanks Alex for a great article! I totally agree with your selections. As mentioned below, others that could step up in a great way. Discussing what comes next after Evan Stewart's injury DEVELOPING: Oregon Football LOSING Evan Stewart to injury in 2025 creates HUGE opportunity for Ducks

IMHO the key to replacing Evan is whomever our starting QB is most comfortable with if they need a play made. There is plenty of talent in the room to choose from, with speed, with size, and for the most part can catch the ball when asked to. There are many schools that would be in serious trouble if this happened to them but I don’t think the Ducks are one of those. Plenty of studs in that group. Go s

I don't know. But I hope they enjoy the effort.

Without the tats. (un)social media drama, and the INTs, I hope. I also hope Dante is a better on-field leader. When Beck was injured in the conference championship game, the UGA offense seemed excited when Stockton entered the game and played hard for Gunnar. Hopefully, in 2025, Stockton will have WRs who can catch the ball. Not a national title last season, but considering the schedule, the roster turnover, and the injuries on the offensive line, running back, and Beck throwing to guys in the wrong jerseys, winning the SEC may have been Kirby Smart's best coaching effort.

Jett Washington finding a home with OBD perhaps. 5-Star Recruit Jett Washington Calls Oregon Ducks 'Home' After Visit WWW.SI.COM The Oregon Ducks hosted an elite group of recruits over the weekend. One of the top recruiting targets to visit was five-star safety Jett Washington. Washington

Hey... Alabama put numbers ON the helmets and names on the BACKS! That's just downright crazy by traditionalist standards. PSU stopped with the stripe down the middle and I think even when they did that the designers were like "I think this is a little much, better not put player names on the back."

I watched more college baseball this year than I have in years and have had a hard time predicting who would beat whom. So I have pretty much decided to root for the underdogs. As a former pitcher, I have been surprised how nondominant college pitchers are--even when it seems they are throwing serious gas or otherwise have electric "stuff". I've decided it is the aluminum bats that give hitters a real sizable advantage. It is certainly not that way in the pros. When I watch the Giants, I am almost embarrassed for the number of starting position players hanging somewhere around or just north of the Mendoza line. Having said this, I guess I am too much of a traditionalist to advocate livening up the game by legalizing metal bats. Somehow hearing a hitter say, after hitting a 650 foot HR, "I really got good metal on that one" would grate on me. Plus, we would probably have to build much bigger ballparks, I fear, to prevent lazy 420 foot fly ball home runs.

Well he is built a bit like Carson Beck, so maybe,

It didn't start well for the Beavs in their winner takes all game against FSU in the Corvallis Super Regional. The Beavs started a freshman pitcher, he got the first guy out, the next hit a double of the left field wall, the next guy it over the wall. 2-0, Beavs coming to bat. Beavs scored 7, including back to back to back home runs. FSU put 1 up in the 2nd. In the 3rd, the Beavs scored 6, 4 on a grand slam. So far, the Beavs have a 1 run homer, a 2 run homer, a 3 run homer & the grand slam. Bottom of the 4th, 13-3. Tell me Jameis, could this one go either way?
