I'll try to find Rob's contact in GoDucks.com, so maybe I can tell him about our proposals.
I'll propose him future scheduling ideas, anything y'all wanna tell him?
I just sent him an email related to an scheduling idea, hopefully he does consider it tho I doubt he will ever reply

Attention Rob Mullens!!…
Is there any way we can contact him about our proposals? Like the firings or the future non-conference opponent ideas?

Ik I'm on the minority here, but I'm sure that the expanded playoffs will actually make good OOC games even more common, not completely destroy them, the reasons are pretty simple since those playoffs will be much larger than before, if the 4-team playoffs still existed then I would understand why people wouldn't want any challenging OOC games
I would honestly LOVE for our schedules to be like this: A rotating game against an ex-Pac-12 foe (ex. Utah or one of the Arizona schools), a P4 game against such teams like Alabama or Kansas State and a cupcake.
I spoke with an Oregon user named Mateo Pablo and he also believes the same thing.

Well, looks like Georgia and UCLA will do the same thing Ole Miss and USC did...
Goodbye, my hopes for Alabama vs. Oregon...

I am not asking for Mullens to be fired, because if he did one thing right, it was to hire Dan Lanning.
But I do think he needs to answer for these massive blunders before he comes to the fans for more donations…
Well, if I were to request Mullens a wish, it would be to play Alabama in non-conference play someday and that's it.
But going back to the topic, if we don't wanna play Oregon State anymore but also want to fill our schedule with cupcakes, who should we schedule?
-
Wish some random staff member would make an article discussing Oregon's future schedule options, directly giving Rob Mullens ideas for home and home series' like Bama and LSU. as well as the most important topic, discuss if we should keep playing Oregon State.

Well, today I was browsing through r/CFB and I found a rather shocking post involving Ole Miss' future schedules, their AD said that not all currently scheduled games are going to stick, and despite not saying it outright, it's believed that the home and home series involving U$C that was set to begin in 2025 will most likely be cancelled.
What does it mean for the rest of the FBS? I'm still praying that Oregon doesn't go the easy way and keeps scheduling cupcakes for every season, I'm still eager we get to see a regular season Oregon vs. a random SEC team game someday.
-
I honestly agree with everyone here, the Civil War no longer means what it once meant, plus Washington is a more formidable rival now.
I also want more diverse opponents on our schedules rather than just MWC and Big Sky teams, like, would it hurt to at least play a home and home series game against Alabama, LSU or Florida? I would also mention a random ACC team like Miami or Clemson, but one of them is very likely to become a new Big Ten member someday.
Ik everything can change between now and the next few years, but at least knowing Alabama vs. Oregon could be scheduled to happen would make me die a happy man.
-
Well I wanna know how Rob is gonna handle Oregon's future schedules from now on, IIRC he once spoke about that with John Canzano and said it's difficult to get good teams to visit Autzen.
But hopefully he can agree with Greg Byrne to finally get that Oregon vs. Bama matchup scheduled once in and for all, regardless if it is a kickoff game or a home and home series.

Ohio State plays Bama in 2027 and 2028 after playing Texas in 2025 and 2026.
The fact Ohio State got Bama to travel to the North makes me wish that Oregon is able to do the same someday!
-
This reminded me of how much I have kept begging for an Oregon vs. Alabama game, but everyone keeps saying it won't happen...
Greg Byrne (Alabama's AD) recently mentioned in a video that he would like to keep and add good quality opponents to UA's future schedules, so I hope he agrees with Rob Mullens for either a home and home series or a kickoff game, preferably the former.
-
I really hope that they can get Miami in the Big Ten, I don't know, just wanna see the interactions between The Duck and Sebastian on the sidelines.
And don't forget about Mario Cristobal.

First of all...it is Charles Fischer, and second...how would I know? I get the same media announcements as all the other media sources, and I do not attend any of the news conferences since we are a no-profit, all-volunteer site.
I have no inside access, and frankly--would not use it for this topic if I did. Any goodwill capital would be used for a significant inside tip--if that was possible, but it is not. I understand your passion for this topic, and welcome the discussion, but I have no inside information here. Sorry.
I've made a huge mistake, sorry...

I wish Charles Fisher gave us a little insight on how Oregon's future schedules could look like beginning in 2029.

In my opinion, Oregon must match the type of schedules that teams like Michigan, Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia and Texas are playing.
These are the teams we want to be compared with nationally.
Most of those team are scheduling 2-3 cupcakes every year and playing one tough non conference game.
B1G playing 2 cupcakes while SEC teams play 3 cupcakes due to their 8 game league schedule.
Now that we are in the B1G and playing Michigan, Ohio State and Penn State we can get a playoff spot without playing an SEC team in the non league.
We just need to be ranked high enough to be able to play the SEC in the playoffs.
For the next few years we need to keep our home and home games with Oklahoma State and Baylor and then play 2 easier games.
Before doing research, I thought we should get rid of the Big 12 games and replace them with cupcakes but Michigan and Ohio State are playing teams like Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama and Georgia in the near future.
It is probably too late to play that tough of an opponent in the next 4-5 years but we should not schedule 3 cupcakes.
By playing the Big12 teams and possibly Oregon State that could help offset the big non conference games that Michigan and Ohio State are playing.
It also helps that we get an opportunity to beat Michigan and Ohio State in league games or in a B1G championship game thus benefitting from them playing and beating a SEC team in non league.
Short term (2024-2028) there is probably not a lot that the Ducks can change with their schedules but I'm curious to see what teams we schedule for 2029 and beyond.

View future college football schedules and opponents at FBSchedules.com. We have future schedules for all FBS and FCS teams.I'm completely aware of the 2024-28 schedules, we should definitely keep our Baylor and Oklahoma State home and home series' and then schedule good teams like Alabama in the 2030's, hopefully we get an insight of the programs Rob Mullens is working to schedule

But if Rob Mullens wants to only schedule bad and weak teams, then I'll respect his decision.

Most people here want our Ducks to stop scheduling teams like the ones belonging in the SEC or Big 12 after we join our new conference, with the entire-non conference schedule instead being filled with teams like our former Pac-12 foes and very, very local FCS and G5 teams.
I would definitely get the situation...if it was related to our non-conference basketball and baseball schedules.
For football, I do think Oregon could do just fine scheduling teams like Alabama and Clemson, even though Power 5 games against Utah or the Arizona schools wouldn't hurt either, the reason? Oregon's football schedule doesn't have to rely heavily on traveling despite our Big Ten move, because usually two of our non-conference games are played in Autzen Stadium, some seasons have even featured three non-conference home games, for other sports like basketball and baseball I do understand since they have more regular season games than football and hence more traveling issues.
And for those who think it would make our schedule even harder and more impossible to compete for a natty, just remember that the playoffs will be expanded to 12 teams, meaning it will be much easier for Oregon to compete there, so that's why I think Oregon can still schedule teams like Bama without being affected negatively, albeit my preference would be to schedule diverse P5 opponents, have an annual game against Oregon State and a Big Sky FCS team, so that way, everyone wins.
-
Well, hopefully we do manage to win this game. it would be nice to get a winning send-off to Bo Nix.

I've decided to toy around with the ESPN Playoff Predictor now that we are in the final week of the regular season, I've decided to pick every possible scenario with Oregon winning, and it seems that in every single one we end up in the playoffs, don't know why but I won't complain.

I was just informed by the Assistant Athletic Director of Communications (whom I deal with often concerning media and photo passes for games) that Oregon Athletics has no such account, and the post from that account about SEC scheduling is bogus.
Good question, and thanks for initiating the clarification.
Sorry, we will not play Alabama until the Playoffs, but I look forward to it then!
UPDATE: They deleted the posts replying to fans, including the SEC scheduling one.

Thanks, I'll just go report the account for impersonation, send me the proof and I'll attach it to the BlueSky team.

I do not know if it is real, but I will inquire with the Athletic Department to find out.
Thanks for the clarification, I hope we solve the enigma.
