Steven A, thanks for digging that up. Yes indeed, it was Ken Woody. The rest of that archive sports front page holds this prophetic gem: "Upstart Ohio State Blanks #1 Purdue 13-0"

Always fun to cause more tears for the University of Spoiled Children! Oregon Ducks On SIOregon Freshman Ify Obidegwu Turns Heads With USC Trojans...For those who attended the Oregon Duck's 42-27 win against the USC Trojans at Autzen Stadium, the passion between both teams throughout the game was obvious as

Fun read, Darren..... A few thoughts on the Beavers now residing in a low-grade conference. Darren, you are being so kind to even rate the conference that high. Showing the holiday spirit? I agree with you that Kiffin has come along ways and he really should stay in his own "lane". Well done...... Washington as our new little brother? That's definitely rich! It sends warm fuzzies to my Duck heart the angst that my 4 lifelong friends (met in 1958) will feel when i share that label with them. Still haven't heard the end of the 70 spot they put on OBD's at Autzen. As if that wiped out 12 straight losses or the infamy of a 2008 winless season. A fricken winless season for gosh sakes! As for your score prediction. This Duck fan would be estatic if the Ducks put 40 plus points on the board against the huskies Those little dogs can play defense! Scoring points may very well depend on who starts on the Duck O Line. The Duck D should throttle the husky offense. Afterall, Whisky held them to 10 points, Wolverines held them to 7 points and tOSU allowed the dogs to score only 6. I expect the Duck D to dominate this game. As long as all the Duck ends hold the edge, we should see alot of 3 and outs. Looking for a 31-13 Duck win. In the true spirit of husky week...huck em, huck em good! GO DUCKS! Happy Thanksgiving

Maybe Jonathan Smith was more perceptive than we thought. He moved to a growing conference AND he got paid. Better than withering on the vine with players leaving en masse. He wouldn’t have been able to parley into a better gig if he would have stayed.

The two happiest days of an athletic director’s career is when they hire Lane Kiffin and when they fire Lane Kiffin.

I saw two Turkeys got pardoned yesterday. I hope nobody is sick, and decides they want Duck or Gator as a replacement. I would say Beaver or Bulldog is okay, but my sports fandom doesn't dictate everything in my life. Happy Thanksgiving!!! Psst.. Don't eat the last piece of pie. I got in trouble for doing that one year. Save yourself for Saturday. Your desert can be sending Fisch off to Florida with a loss.

For the past several decades, the Oregon State Beavers have been Oregon’s in-state rival and proverbial “little brother.” The Beavers have had stretches where they were just no competition for big brother. They had stretches where they were very challenging for Big Brother. But, ultimately, they could never overtake Big Brother. Even Mr. FishDuck took a break from his study ... Huskies Are the New Beavers, Stay In Your Lane Kiffin, and the Civil Apple Cup War

I too am thankful for the wonderful surgeons in Eugene. My back last year and my wife’s recent breast cancer where he removed all of the cancerous tissue.

Impossible for that many G6 teams to make noise, especially from the same conference…but I admire your enthusiasm.

Ken Woody?

I think that is four questions . . . No, No, No, and a big NOFWAY. My 2¢

They say you never forget your first . . . 1968 Husky stadium, monsoon season, zip/zip 4 minutes to go in the 4th, Ken Moody misses from 40 yds but roughed, 4 plays later he hits a 38 yarder (his first also) . . . two cherrys/one game. SCO 🦆 Eugene Register-Guard - Google News Archive Search

They let 10-year-olds have season tickets . . . who knew? 😇

Well the answer is no. Looks like Alex Golesh is the guy.

I've been in the minority when saying I want Jedd Fisch. He's a Florida graduate, he builds his roster primarily through recruiting, and he has a sharp offensive mind. The only question with him, is he has only been at his current and past gig, two years. But, he took a dumpster fire Arizona, and led them to ten wins his second year. He has Washington getting incrementally better. He's a better long term answer imo, and he doesn't carry the baggage that Lane has. I might have my words used against me if he(Kiffin) does great at LSU. But I'd prefer a guy who doesn't publicly make it known he might take another job. Ole Miss has had to deal with this three times already. Worse yet, he is doing it during their best season ever. Lane might come to Florida, but he is a guy that would openly flirt with being the Cowboys, Dolphins, Jets, Browns, or whatever NFL opening. No thanks. If it's him, I'll wish it well. I would hope he would prove me wrong, but I doubt it.

Let’s not forget the next year - 1987 - the Red Sea parted twice in back to back weeks. SC and Washington die in Autzen and we don’t even get a bowl bid that year. My senior year. Could have used a Rose Bowl invite that year and kicked off the rise in Duck football sooner than 1994. Or was the 1987 season just a dream? I seem to remember that the Blue Bonnet Bowl had reps at the Civil War game that year. I was excited to see Texas at least. But noooooooo.

"All they have left is an unproven assistant at Alabama?" Didn't we get an unproven assistant from Georgia just a few years ago? I think it turned out OK. Beavers need to get the right guy who can do well at Corvallis. Like how Chip did well at Eugene, but not so great at head coach anywhere else. I don't think an established coach from somewhere else will work for them. Neither will a has-been player jock. They need somebody HUNGRY to kick butt and prove himself. I'd like to see the beavs do well again. I'd like to see them win their conf and get a playoff game. Wouldn't be great for the Ducks to play them in the playoff (instead of a beat down exhibition game)? I want the northwest to make noise in the college football world. (Ducks, beavs, Doggiestyle, WAZZU and Boise St).

I am thankful that my daughter, a UO alumnus, was able to get successful surgery, today, to reattach her glenohumeral ligament (the one that holds the bicep tendon in place). Guess where? At the Slocum Center, by one of the marvelous surgeons who regularly attend OBD. Amazing how paths cross!

"In my opinion the conference champ game is a waste of time." Not always great for strategy of your favorite team... but it's the best football weekend of the year! I think the reason why 'we' are not quite so into it is because our old pac12 is gone. If we were playing Washington or USC for the pac12 title, we would all be jacked up for it! Right? Especially a Friday night game in Vegas, bro. If I had the extra time and cash, I would buy a ticket and travel to it. As far as winning the Big10 goes, we did it last year. Kind of did the deed, and bought the t-shirt. Now its is on to bigger things like winning a home playoff game.

You know my humor....and I love this atmosphere where we can share laughs. Time for Turkey Twerking! Are you hungry yet?

Yeah, people are crabs, they always want to pull you down by point out anything you do bad. They'll never admit we are any good, we'll be the zeros untill we win the Natty, then they'll still hate us, but it would shut them up a little. We just need to be happy after each win, talk our trash after each win.

Thanks EBDD for the Thanksgiving message! Hope all OBDers have a wonderful day! And, if by chance it is your fate, thank goodness it won’t take much to have loftier thoughts than a Husky fan.

That’s why I say make it a part of the playoff or do away with it.

I was at the game taking verbal abuse from Fusky fans, who suddenly went quiet and wouldn't engage me after the Smith to Johnson TD pass ("the catch). What great memories!

I never thought of him as a Beavis honk as much as a driving narrative to preserve himself honk. My lack of regard stems from how frequently he’s just flat out wrong with his “scoops”. I swear I have better connections than he does.
