This last loss has hurt more than any other loss I can recall, and when I came to write this article I reflected on a video from It’s OK to be Smart entitled The Strange Psychology of Superfans. I highly suggest that everyone watches it, because it is telling in just what makes us tick. During the video they go ...

Seventeen days before early signing day and Oregon appears to be in a fantastic spot on the recruiting front.

In the consideration of whether Bo Nix or Jayden Daniels should be awarded the Heisman trophy, I could not resist applying my professional experience as an appellate attorney to just what the voters should evaluate. Mainly, do they look simply to a candidate’s personal football skills, or do they also consider the candidate’s impact on the team. In the circumstance ...

The Pac-12 started this season with a whopping six teams ranked in the AP poll, and peaked at Week 4 with eight. This didn’t last, as Week 4 was the beginning of conference play, and though the Pac-12 may not be the best conference, it surely is the most competitive from top to bottom. The football season is long and ...

Down the stretch this season, Oregon’s offense has been on an absolute tear. Heisman hopeful Bo Nix has put up ridiculous numbers. Perhaps the most telling is his 78-percent completion rate, which is the best in college football history. However, Oregon does have a strange problem in the red zone — and it isn’t the kicking game. When the Ducks ...

It feels nice, doesn’t it? Certainty, that is. The Ducks throttled the Beavers on Friday night, with no Pac 12 after dark vibes to speak of.

It is amazing what a change of scenery has done for Bo Nix—but more than that, what the superior coaching he has received at Oregon has done. The offensive scheme they ran at Auburn did not maximize his talent, and the train wreck that has become Auburn football continues to fly off the tracks. Before the 2022 season, I wrote ...

Bryan Fischer of Fox Sports posted his bowl projections this week, as Washington notably doesn’t crack the College Football Playoff, and our Oregon Ducks football program catapults into a matchup with Michigan in the Rose Bowl. Now, ahead of our rivalry game this Friday against the Oregon State Beavers, these predictions may feel a bit erroneous. Still, it’s a fun ...

Football is a hard sport. It takes its toll on players and teams both mentally and physically. This season, we have seen Colorado and USC crumble as their seasons have gone on. Their morale was sucked out of them from devastating losses. But Oregon bounced back from their one loss in triumphant fashion, and that is a testament to the ...

I am sick of the pretentious articles by John Canzano and other writers who portray the Beavers as the aggrieved party in the Pac-12 dissolution, painting them as noble heroes fighting a righteous battle as the little guy against the Genghis horde of ten other Pac-12 programs. It is wrong, and it is emblematic of modern day journalism that presents ...

Arizona State has the nations most deviously designed stadium.

You remember. While our Rose Bowl victory over Wisconsin was sweet–we should have been in the Playoff that year. We lost 31-28 to a 5-5 (at that time) Arizona State team…in a game that should not have happened. Stuff like that occurred with the prior coach, and even if the opponent has great players...

Let’s take a look at the big picture, while acknowledging that the full canvas of this season is incomplete before final judgments are made of Oregon’s offensive coordinator Will Stein.

Recently there has been a lot of chatter about the best one loss team in college football.

Boy, how dominant has our Oregon Ducks football program looked over the past few weeks? If you missed Our Beloved Ducks’ stellar performance against the USC Trojans this weekend, it was about what you’d expect (and more) for Oregon. The energy was electric, and our offense went up and down the field routinely through the run and passing game, which both thrived ...

It has been absolutely delightful as Duck fans to watch USC’s problems, not only this year but over more than a decade at this point. For the record, Oregon fans are not jealous of what USC has or had, because we are on our own journey. We simply take great pleasure in watching USC’s downfall and struggles. And perhaps our ...

As I write this article, according to ESPN, the Oregon Ducks sit as the number two passing offense in the nation as it relates to yards per game, at 339. A lot of that has to do with the shear amount of talent on offense, including a quarterback in Bo Nix who has seen just everything a defense can throw ...
