The TV schedule looks good so far. As long as the games aren't shown on Peacock I will be able to watch them. -
Nebraska Beats UCLA 5-0 to Win B1G Tournament
sports fan replied to HDuck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Baseball sure is a funny game. That's why it's played on the field, not on paper. Here are the baseball scores involving Nebraska, Oregon, OSU and UCLA. Regular season scores: UCLA beat Nebraska 5-2, 11-3 and 5-3 but lost the one that counts 5-0. Oregon beat UCLA 2-1 and 10-6 and lost 14-4. Nebraska beat Beavis 7-3 and 16-7 and lost 16-5. OSU beat UCLA 7-1. Nebraska beat Oregon 7-3. Go figure. -
B1G Baseball Tournament: Information and a Bad Matchup?
sports fan replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Thanks for contacting the sports information director for baseball and giving us an update on the pitching issues concerning the Ducks and Bruins. As you stated, the tournament would be nice to win but the focus is on the regionals next week. Highly unlikely, but Oregon and UCLA could miss out on the championship game and still be in the regionals. However, all the other schools competing in the tournament have to win out in order to make a regional. For them, I would think it would be all hands on deck and they would use any pitcher at their disposal to possible win it all. -
Latest College Baseball Rankings and NCAA Projections...
sports fan replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
As far as I can tell, the NCBWA relies solely on the latest RPI results. D1 Baseball is the site that I believe is the best. They have Oregon as # 4. If you look up the RPI on their website it does list Oregon at # 12. Bottom line, the games are won on the field, not on paper. -
Let's take a look at how each school did against their opponent in the regular season. I'm listing this in order of the games to be played starting tomorrow.

B1G Baseball Tournament: Information and a Bad Matchup?
sports fan replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I checked out the schedule and bracket and our Ducks are the last team to play. This gives our guys a couple of days rest while everyone else is battling it out. But this scenario also could be an issue as Oregon would play four games in four days. Will the pitching hold up? I did a deep dive into Oregon's pitching depth. These results are based on the last 15 games, when Oregon won 14 out of 15. I have to admit I didn't know the Ducks have 19 pitchers on their roster! Besides our starting pitchers, Coach Waz relies on only six relievers. Grayson Grinsell, Collin Clarke and Jason Reitz each had four starts. Relievers and appearances Cole Stokes 10 Seth Mattox 8 Santiago Garcia 6 Ian Umlandt 6 Ryan Featherstone 5 Jaxon Jordan 4 Pitchers who have made a brief appearance in the last 15 games. Toby Twist 3 St. Mary's - Washington - Iowa Sam Boyle 2 Tanner Bradley 1 Julien Hernandez 1 Will Sanford 1 Last pitched against Oregon St. on April 29th. Started and pitched two innings. Is he recovering from an injury?) This is going to be a challenge for all teams, not just Oregon. I'm sure we're going to see some pitchers who normally don't play. Keep the bats boomin', Ducks! -
Here are the final attendance results for the Big Ten Conference baseball games. I did not include non-conference games. Hats off to the Cornhusker fans. They really support their team. And what has happened to UCLA. I was shocked to see such low numbers for them. They were in a tight race with our Ducks for first place and nobody bothered to show up to watch them. 1. NEBRASKA 5,458 2. OREGON 2,962 3. IOWA 2.052 4. INDIANA 1,591 5. PURDUE 1,533 6. USC 1,417 7. MICHIGAN 1.394 8. WASHINGTON 1,217 9. MARYLAND 1,156 10. PENN ST. 1,083 11. ILLINOIS 1,029 12. OHIO ST. 981 13. MICHIGAN ST. 857 14. MINNESOTA 681 15. UCLA 660 16. RUTGERS 602 17. NORTHWESTERN 485

Opinion: Why the Big-10 is Falling Behind in Baseball...
sports fan replied to sports fan's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
On a final note on this subject, I looked into each schools schedule, home and road games. Five schools did not have any weather related issues. They were... Indiana, Minnesota, Oregon, Rutgers and UCLA. The following schools had either cancellations or a postponement of a game. Michigan 2/3 Ohio St. 3/1 Iowa 3/0 Purdue 3/0 Penn St. 2/1 Michigan St. 1/2 Nebraska 1/1 Illinois 1/0 Northwestern 1/0 USC 1/0 Washington 1/0 Maryland 0/1 -
Do you agree with the article? Opinion: Why is the Big Ten falling behind in College Baseball? - Penn State Student Media BELLISARIOSTUDENTMEDIA.PSU.EDU When it comes to college baseball, which conferences do you think of the most? Normally, fans would say the ACC, the Big 12 and, of course, the kings of the NC

Each website has their own sports writers and opinions as to where each school should be ranked. ON3 has Oregon as a # 13 seed, with Oklahoma, Cal Poly and Murray State. On D1 Baseball, they also list Oregon as a # 13 seed. Joining them is TCU, Cal Poly and Fairfield. With one more week of the regular season and then the conference tournaments, we'll just have to wait a couple of weeks to see where Oregon ends up. Just keep winning. Go Ducks!

Depends on what the consumer signs up for. When I had Comcast cable, I was locked into a TWO year contract. I could opt out anytime, but I would not receive a refund. I now have YouTube TV and I have most of the bells and whistles for sport events. And it's not a contract. I pay monthly and can cancel anytime. And a perk with YouTube, I have unlimited recording options.

Words can't describe what those Huskies have done. Maybe we should petition the Big Ten to kick them out of the conference. They can join two other thiefs, Bevis and the Cougars.

Followup to the NCBWA rankings posted this week, # 6 Oregon State, # 10 UCLA and # 19 Oregon. These guys are being lazy in their weekly ranking of schools. These numbers are the current RPI for this week. As you mentioned previously, Oregon swept OSU and took two out of three against the Bruins. I doubt these clowns know that. And Iowa has an RPI of #67. Here is a break down of Oregon's wins. QUAD ONE QUAD TWO QUAD THREE QUAD FOUR 9-1 4-2 16-7 9-3
