It has always baffled me. It really seems, with any work at all a player should be at 70% on free throws. Rick Barry finished his NBA career with a 90% average. In part he believes because he found that shooting them underhanded gave him more control, and he was able to repeat the motion easier, so much he could do it with his eyes closed.

“In a normal year, bracketing is done with consideration given to keeping as many teams as close to their campus as possible, reducing team travel and providing as many fans as possible an opportunity to watch their favorite teams participate in The Big Dance. But this year only, with the entire tournament being played in Indiana, the committee believes this different approach is optimal.” The change is just the reorganization of the brackets necessitated by all the games being played in Indiana.

It seems for the first time this season really, we saw what can happen to a team so young and still trying to get its footing. Its also the case that no other team in the conference feels sorry for the Ducks. I can't remember what the time frame it was, but Arizona hadn't beaten Oregon in a long time.

Thanks a lot for posting that, ICamel. It will be great to get the new era of Oregon baseball, under Coach Wasikowskii, started.

Great insights, Hayward Duck. Tom Brady was underused at Michigan, and wouldn't have gotten his chance at New England, but for former WSU Cougar, Drew Bledsoe being injured.

No upset would be bigger than the Browns, fresh off their blowout of the Steelers in their first playoff game since 2002, beating the defending Super Bowl champion, Kansas City Chiefs. I doubt the Browns defense can slow the Chiefs offense down enough for that to happen, though. It will be a battle of Cal Bears when Jared Goff of the Rams go into Green Bay to play Aaron Rodgers and the Packers.

I have been anxiously waiting for softball to return since it stopped so abruptly last season. Some of my favorite Ducks played at, "The Jane" and I'm sure that I'll have some more coming from this team.

We really only get to see linemen after their called for a penalty, so we won't be able to watch him anyway

"Could become a candidate" is alright.

The Rams go from sunny LA to the, "frozen tundra" of Green Bay to take on the Packers.

You're very right, Joshua. The Ducks need a quarterback playing at his highest level if it wants to achieve its goals. Winning the Pac-12 for a third year in a row is definitely possible, if not probable. But you're right again when you say that won't be enough to keep the 4's and 5's coming. A quarterback battle is always interesting, and this one for the Ducks is no exception. Shough had an up and down season that definitely ended on the downside, what does he bring to the table in the Spring? Is Brown still here? Ashford & Butterfield have chances to impress, as does heralded Freshman, Thompson, and all of the quarterbacks will have an outstanding WR corps to throw to.

"This is a great day for Jacksonville and Jaguars fans everywhere," team owner Shad Khan said in a statement.

The Ducks got off to their worst start of the season.

Slow start dooms Ducks

There was some good to to take out of the game. The Lady Ducks never quit, they never stopped playing hard. I didn't see any Duck with her head down, or act out of frustration. It wasn't their day in a big way, but they took it as a team. I Think Kelly has demonstrated that he's the perfect coach for this situation and he and the players will move on.

Does anybody want to see either of these again?

As far as birthday presents go, that game has to be the worst. The football team played better in the Fiesta Bowl.

True about the record, and credit to you for recognizing it.

The best thing about the players on that list is that the speculation that they could have breakout seasons is anything but wild, and I have high hopes for the HM's as well. This is what you get with great recruiting.

If Oregon could only have one uniform...HORROR!!! I hope it would be this one:

Thanks for the heads up on all those players.

All the best, Urban, get to the NFL and stay there.
