FishDuck.com and OBD Forum: A Media Powerhouse?
The title might be a bit of a stretch, but these two Oregon football websites are more than just “sleepers” in the niche’.

Time to For the Big Ten to Adopt Las Vegas
It is time for the B1G conference to embrace the future, and that future is making Las Vegas the host of its championship game.
