Head coach Dan Lanning has Oregon sitting at 6-1, a record that some might ... Oregon Football: Are the Ducks Postseason Ready?

The BIG. Outside of having three teams ranked in the Top 6, the rest of the conference is mediocre to bad. The conference is currently the very definition of “top-heavy.” Michigan and Illinois are flirting at the bottom of the Top 25, but they have a low ceiling. The BIG Blows

It is amazing what a week after a tough loss can do, as the Ducks didn’t let Rutgers get close to handing them a second loss.

The Duck Defense Flies In Sync

Hopefully, when you first gazed upon the featured photo above of the Indiana Hoosiers partying it up at Autzen Stadium, it has fueled something within your soul. Oregon’s loss to Indiana last Saturday better dang well be fueling the Oregon football team. Sometimes Losing is Winning

Our Oregon football program suffered a disappointing and stunning loss in Eugene against Indiana. Oregon got all-around beaten in their own place, and it was hard to watch for Duck fans. Fortunately, the season didn’t end this weekend, and one shining star elevated MASSIVELY in the moment. Brandon Finney didn’t play a perfect game by any means. However, he did ... Week Seven's Shining Star

Going into last Saturday’s match-up against Indiana, the Ducks had one of the most dominant offensive lines in the country. That is no longer the case. On the very first play of the game, the Ducks gave up a sack, and the sacks kept coming. The Oregon offensive line was porous and had no answer for Indiana’s pass rush. To ... Oregon's Offensive Line Folds to Indiana

An up-and-coming program, little to no historical success, riding high on the strength of a high-powered offense. Just put some flashy (sometimes ugly) uniforms on the Indiana Hoosiers, and the Oregon Ducks are looking at the late 2000s version of themselves. 2007 was Chip Kelly’s first year as the Oregon offensive coordinator, and he took the Ducks’ offensive from very ... In Hoosiers, the Ducks See Their Former Selves

Oregon Football: Where Does Dan Lanning Rank Today?

Oregon has two incredible freshman running backs in Dierre Hill and Jordon Davison, both of whom have outstripped expectations and are pushing for more carries.

The Case for Oregon's Freshmen Running back Duo to Start

Put down that winter lawn fertilizer? Complete that final outdoor home improvement project before the weather changes? Costco it up? Take your dog on that hike you have been promising? Finally, unplug the toilet in that pesky half-bath add-on? Locate your old Groucho Marx disguise in the attic so you can “discreetly” purchase hemorrhoid cream? Or, just lounge around watching ... Oregon Football: The Bye Week Blues

My favorite part of this question about our Oregon football program? You’re probably asking, “Which one?” While the header image might be a giveaway, I’m going to pick the quarterback that I was DREADFULLY wrong about this offseason: Dante Moore. I had reservations in the spring about whether Dante could get it done as a first-year starter with Oregon, even ... Oregon Football is Moore the Best in the Country

In one of my preseason articles I discussed candidates for Oregon’s new B1G Rivials, and on my list of five potential rivals, Penn State came in at No. 2. After Oregon’s 30-24 win in their house during their most celebrated tradition, it’s clear that the Oregon-Penn State rivalry is taking form. For the second time in less than a year, ...
