  1. After his Week 1 loss, Oregon head coach Dan Lanning said, “The Ducks were out coached by Georgia, and the team didn’t play as well as it can.” Fans saw that the Duck defense got used up. But does Lanning have a plan for how to fix the issues that plagued the defense? It’s important to keep perspective that Oregon ...

  2. A blowout loss like the Ducks suffered Saturday gives two false indicators: The winning team isn’t truly as good as it appeared and the losing team isn’t as bad. Kirby Smart knows that sports axiom, which is why he is working to suppress thoughts that his team is ready for the next Natty. And Dan Lanning is trying to keep ...

  3. I was a 10-year-old kid in 1985. The Ducks were playing at Nebraska for the first game in a two-year agreement to play at Nebraska. That is right, the Big Red Machine in its heyday under legendary coach Tom Osborne.

  4. This Saturday Spoof is a new game day tradition brought to you by Alan Lohner- a humorous and pointed look at our opponent each week.  Do pass this along to your Oregon friends, and DO READ the red Pinned Topic at the top of this front page as more information for you, and a warning to Georgia fans.

  6. A few random thoughts from a random guy in the bleachers before the season begins and we have actual football to chew over. USC’s scramoose from the Pac-12 reportedly comes with a desire to take a break from the Ducks, which at the moment means keeping them out of the Big Ten. Some Ducks fans find that outrageous, but it ...

  7. My FishDuck Friends, this is the beginning of a new era for the Oregon defense and for the two FishDuck websites.  This new defense is going to be gradually explained over time as we show how it functions, stops the run, blitzes, player techniques...all of it over time.  Today is the first foundation article about what to begin to look for on Saturday, with a surprise reference to Oregon's past.

  8. Oregon quite literally couldn’t have asked for a tougher week one draw. The Ducks are facing the defending National Champs, essentially in their backyard, right in the heart of SEC country. Georgia was historic last season, and the Bulldogs are fully expected to be dominant once again. Kirby Smart has recruited better than just about anyone else in the country, ...

  9. Move over, Ohio State. As huge as that 2021 non-conference game was for the Ducks and the Pac-12, it does not reach the heights of this year’s epic Week 1 matchup against the defending National Champion Georgia Bulldogs in Atlanta. Unless, of course, the Ducks get blown out; then Oregon fans can downplay the significance of this game. They can ...

  10. Week zero of the 2022 college football season kicked off yesterday, with Northwestern and Nebraska as the marquee morning game on Fox. I tuned into watch some good old-fashioned, smash-mouth, ground-and-pound football. Instead, I was welcomed to the new era of college football — both teams’ quarterbacks had 200 yards passing at the half. You read that right, and we ...

  11. My FishDuck Friends, today marks the beginning of a new writer at FishDuck, Alan Lohner, who has created an epic article in his first work. It will make you laugh, and it will make you wince, (did he really write that?) and I believe the quality is so high that I personally will want to refer to it again. Thus I will be creating a section for his articles in the FishDuck Repository of Articles for us to be able to read them again and link them to others.

  12. Oregon Ducks football has the opportunity to become a top-five program in the nation. In the past decade, Our Beloved Ducks football program has produced numerous top-ten picks in the NFL Draft, battled for recruiting supremacy on a national stage, and even molded a Heisman trophy winner (who will be an honorary captain next week, I might add). But we ...

  13. With the Oregon Ducks taking on the Bulldogs of Georgia in just a mere nine days, fans wait with bated breath to witness the unveiling of Coach Kenny Dillingham’s offense. For as excited as people are to see an expanded passing game, the rushing attack looks to take the explosive nature of past Ducks schemes and doubles-down. This new offense ...

  14. NIL has now trickled down to the average Duck fan. With the launch of Eugene NIL Club, and Ducks Rising scheduled to launch later this month, fans are encouraged to donate toward NIL contributions for players. This is basically NIL through crowd sourcing. The rewards for donating include some exclusive digital meetings with players and the feeling that you have ...

  15. We judge new head coaches by first-year wins and recruiting. But Duck fans need one more metric for Dan Lanning: show us your quarterbacks. Here’s hoping that Bo Nix has a Heisman season, but what we really want to see is what the coaches make of Ty Thompson and Jay Butterfield. For three decades ending with Marcus Mariota in 2014, ...

  16. New Oregon OC Kenny Dillingham’s first game for Oregon will be against the defending National Champion Georgia Bulldogs. Can Dillingham’s stacked offense lead Oregon to an upset win? This is going to be big boy football with five-star and Top-100 recruits all over the field, and Dillingham will have the national stage to show what his offense can do. Georgia ...

  18. This is a very cool blitz I noted, however the way that Oregon carried it out a few times in the Spring Game is something I have not seen from a Duck defense in the past. My friends, we have a ton of great new concepts to learn about the Oregon defense, and I'll be gradually bringing it to you!

  20. That title above seems absurd, considering the return of seniors DJ Johnson, Brandon Dorlus and All-American linebacker Noah Sewell. I do not deny their abilities to rush the quarterback, and I expect a big year out of all three, yet the pass-rushing specialist “on-deck” who will emerge enormously this year will be Bradyn Swinson. He has already taken a big ...

  21. We’ve all heard the consensus point of view from Duck fans: Mario Cristobal regressed the development of Justin Herbert and Anthony Brown. Both QBs spent two years in Cristobal’s offense, but is that statement hyperbole — and is there information that could provide a definite answer? Taggart’s Offensive System Let Herbert Shine Herbert’s true sophomore year in 2017 under new ...

  22. The Great College Football Schism is Coming, and it will leave College Football divided between the Semi-Professionals, those blue bloods who have the money and recruiting ability to be apart of the two Super Conferences in the B1G and SEC, and the Traditionalists, which will be everyone else who cannot afford to put the same resources in place to compete ...
