I'm relieved that Curt "I'm a Winner" Cignetti didn't make the cut, and the "longevity" issue for Lanning is bogus, 35-6 is more than enough to make an assessment on his coaching abilities. I still maintain that Day is a Coach who does a lot with a lot, but often not enough. Kirby is a lock at No.1, and we'll see if Swinney, who has bucked the system the last few years can get Clemson back on top, fortunately, Clemson is sitting pretty in a basketball conference.

Two Ducks, Dante Moore and Evan Stewart, Could Fly Up the Draftboards. Pair of Oregon Football players listed as potential 2026 NFL draft risers DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM A pair of Oregon Ducks have been listed as major potential risers in the 2026 NFL draft as we head into the offseason. If Dante comes through with the help of Moore and others, he could have one year starting and then head off to the NFL. I sure hope he has the option to go or stay! 2025-26 will have a stronger quarterback class than last season. This, and NIL, will factor into the decision. If he plays up to an early draft choice level, he'll be duly rewarded with a direct payment in the amount paid to top QBs, with NIL the cherry on top. NIL is not roundly loved in CFB, but the pros are happy that it retains good CFB players who need an extra season of development with no cost to the NFL.

An analyst I listen to, Walt Deptula, predicts PSU v Clemson in the Natty. PSU is going to be tough this season and should be within the Top-5 in national rankings through season if they live up to the pre season hype. The Ducks have the talent to contend for the championship though they are somewhat young and need to gel quickly into a synchronized unit early in the season. The game against the Nittany Lions at Happy Valley looms large on the horizon. Can the Ducks avoid being shot down, and propel into the championship conversation by defeating Penn State? Every game counts, but Oregon at Penn State in 2025 will be huge.

I think this matters most. At most you have a starting QB for three years. Nick Saban lost QBs, coordinators, and everybody else just about every two years. He was the cog, Alabama was the rehab stint for guys like Kiffin, Sarkasian and O'Brien. He was the launching point for Kirby, Locksley and MacElwain. Lanning is going to go through the same thing if he continues winning ten plus games every year and wins at least one big game a year. Who has come off a James Franklin coaching tree and been successfully? Joe Moorehead at Mississippi State? What big games has Franklin won in his tenure? 2016 when he beat Ohio State and Wisconsin to win the league. He didn't even finish that year off as he lost to Clay Helton in the Rose Bowl. Lanning had more big wins in one year and has as many conference titles as Franklin already.

While the press release states that Oregon has won nine straight...another tidbit is how this baseball team has won 13 of the last 14 games...with the only loss to the incredible pitcher at Michigan State. C'mon Ducks...You Can Do It!

Gritty Win, Ducks Rally To Set Up Big Ten Title Showdown IOWA CITY, Iowa — No. 5 Oregon rallied from a four-run deficit for a 9-6 win at Iowa on Friday setting up a battle for a Big Ten Conference championship on Saturday in Iowa City. Oregon (40-13) scored eight of its nine runs in the final five innings after falling behind 6-2 after five innings. Jacob Walsh led Oregon, going 3-for-5 with two RBI and three runs scored, while four Ducks' relievers combined to throw 4.2 scoreless innings. With the win, Oregon pulled into a first-place tie with Iowa at 21-8 in the Big Ten Conference. UCLA also picked up a win on Friday against Northwestern to move to 21-8. An Oregon win on Saturday would secure the top seed in next week's Big Ten Tournament, while a loss would leave the Ducks as the No. 2 or No. 3 seed depending on the result of the UCLA-Northwestern game on Saturday. How It Happened: For the second consecutive game Drew Smith got the Ducks on the board in the top of the first inning. After Jacob Walsh doubled with two outs, Smith singled to right field, scoring Walsh for a 1-0 lead. Iowa (32-19-1) scored three runs in the third and another in the fourth to take lead, before Walsh cut into the lead with a solo home run in the top of the fifth. The Hawkeyes built on the lead with a pair of solo home runs in their half of the fifth, then Anson Aroz answered with a solo shot of his own to make it a 6-3 game. Oregon rallied for four runs in the top of the seventh inning to take the lead. Mason Neville led off the frame with a double into the left-field corner before Dominic Hellman reached on a hit-by-pitch, setting up a Walsh RBI double into right-center field. Smith picked up his second RBI of the game with an infield hit off the diving third baseman's glove. Chase Meggers walked to load the bases setting the table for Ryan Cooney who laced a two-out, two-run double down into the left-field corner to give the lead. The Ducks tacked on two insurance runs in the ninth. Aroz reached on a bunt single and came around to score on a Meggers bunt single. Maddox Moloney, who walked before Meggers' RBI, scored on a wild pitch later in the inning. Ian Umlandt (6-1) picked up the win, tossing two scoreless innings out of the bullpen. He gave way to Cole Stokes who fanned three in 1.1 innings of work. Santiago Garcia got the final out in the eighth and the first in the ninth, before Seth Mattox came on to retire the only two batters he faced for his seventh save. Box Score Notes: Oregon's two home runs gave the Ducks 102 for the season, setting a new program record … Walsh's two doubles were the 58th and 59th of his career, moving him into second all-time at Oregon passing Gabe Matthews (2017-21) … Neville scored one run to move into a tie for first in single-season runs scored … The win was Oregon's ninth consecutive victory. On Deck: The Ducks will look to finish off a series sweep and clinch the No. 1 seed in next week's Big Ten Tournament on Saturday (10:02 a.m. PT / Big Ten Network).

Dawgs lost their middle game of the series with aTm and are now in the same position (roughly) as the Ducks tomorrow. I'll be tuned in at 10 and am hoping both teams can take care of business. Go guys!

Great Duck win coming from behind with a combination of big bats and small ball to come back from 3 runs down. My only gripe was pulling Stokes in the 8th when he had the number of the Iowa hitters and was in the groove. Garcia was a bit wobbly at first, then knuckled down and with Mattox, finished it, including a nice put out at first.

Oh, he’s got his GAME-FACE on!

And a beautiful face lol

Lurch is starting for the Ducks He has a really high ceiling.

Both Oregon and Iowa are now tied in the B1G, and even if UCLA wins their remaining games....they will be tied with Oregon, who have the series win over the Bruins-- thus the Ducks will be B1G Champions of the regular season IF they win tomorrow morning. (On the B1G Network) Dan Lanning says that "pressure is a privilege," ...to get to be in that position! I noticed that Washington won their first two against Iowa, but got killed in the third game. Beavis did the same thing, and had to stop at 6-6 in the third game to catch a plane. So the Hawkeye pitcher for their third game each week is good. It is RIGHT THERE!

Was that fun, kids! Wow, Iowa was set on coming back from the run-rule in the 1st game, and those back to back home runs, had me feeling down, But not the Ducks! Long ball and small ball gets the win. Player of the Game: Jacob Walsh

Ducks win 9-6 with an impressive comeback over Iowa. Anson Aroz does a perfect bunt to get to first, and then he steals second. A passed ball by the catcher puts him on third. Maddox Molony walks, and then Chase Meggers does a first-baseline sacrifice bunt, but beats the throw to be safe while Aroz scores! A Duck flies out to move the runner to third, and a wild pitch scores Molony! This is a powerful team that can also play great small-ball with bunts, steals and heads-up base-running! Garcia gets an out, and the Seth Mattox has some drama, but gets the last two outs!

Now to close it out....

Way to come back and put on some runs after being down.

Ducks up 9-6! Playing small ball to perfection!

Runners at the corners with 1 out. A couple of insurance runs would be sweet! StatBroadcast Live Stat Feed STATS.STATBROADCAST.COM

7-6 Ducks after eight innings! Cole Stokes got two outs, and between the four batters in two innings...struck out three of them. He was replaced by Santiago Garcia who got the third out! THREE MORE OUTS! You can do it Oregon!

End of the 8th, OBD still up 7-6!

7-6 Ducks after seven innings, as Oregon exploded for four runs on very-good Iowa relievers. Mason Neville doubled with hit deep into left field that went into the corner. Dominic Hellman then gets plinked, and with an 0-2 count...Jacob Walsh nails a line drive to deep center field to score Neville. Drew Smith then hits a line-drive to the 3rd baseman, who has it bounce off his glove to allow Hellman to score. Anson Aroz then sacrifice-bunts to advance the runners to 2nd and 3rd base. Chase Meggers walks to set up Ducks-on-the-Pond, and Ryan Cooney hits deep to left field to score Walsh and Smith. Still we stranded two runners again! Cole Stokes replaced Umlandt, and my earnest hope is that he can overcome his demons--to stay mentally strong. He got the last two outs of the inning!
