  1. Our Oregon Ducks football program had a TOUGH outing this past Saturday. While the offense was able to rack up 41 completions thanks to Dillon Gabriel, there were some massive holes that derailed what should have been a near-shutout performance. Mr. FishDuck took time from his fun at NFL lines Vegas and his research of NFL Odds to discuss last Saturday’s ...

  2. Fans and pundits took to social media to express their disappointment over the No. 3 Oregon Ducks‘ 24-14 season-opening win against the Idaho Vandals. In most dimensions of the multiverse, the Ducks steamroll the lowly Vandals, and the postgame cleanup crew peels them off ...

  3. With all that has happened, it is hard to believe that Dan Lanning has only been at Oregon for two years. Yet the talent stacked up from both high school and portal recruiting has been the most impressive to me in all my time of covering Duck football. I had to take some time away from my fun at ducky ...

  4. Year 3 of the Dan Lanning era starts on Saturday. He has enjoyed a brilliant start to his tenure at Oregon, going 22-5, but there is still much left undone for the Ducks. This is Oregon’s first year in the B1G and it is going to require a team effort to get the Ducks to the promised land, a National ...

  5. The season is here! Every year I am emotionally torn between the joy of football season starting and the harsh reality that summer is ending and cold weather — which really means something here in frigid Spokane — is on the horizon. It is my own personal “Sunday scaries” for the year. With the Ducks playing a tomato (or is ... With the Ducks Playing a Potato, Check Out These Games | FishDuck FISHDUCK.COM Darren Perkins of FishDuck.com recommends some other games to watch this week as the Ducks play a patsy.
  6. Our Oregon Ducks football program is season-ready, and game week is finally here. It’s time to look at how we’re going to get to 1-0 this Saturday. As Oregon opens at home in Autzen, what are we expecting of this team? What are the keys to starting the season off strong? Mr. FishDuck took some time from his fun at ...

  7. Like a majority of college football teams, the Oregon Ducks didn’t play this weekend, leaving a gaping void inside the green and yellow hearts eagerly awaiting the start of another exciting college football season. While there are so many things to look forward to starting next week, including a new stud quarterback (Dillon Gabriel), a new conference (Big Ten), and ...

  8. I have been pleasantly surprised at all the attention given to Oregon by major sportswriters around the nation in the past two months. Certainly that and the inflatable Duck at the B1G Media meetings have made an impression on our upcoming B1G opponents, yet I really don’t think they believe it. I took a moment from my discover more on...

  9. The Ducks are joining their new conference this season, and one thing the B1G is known for is having some impressive fan participation and uniformity within their massive stadiums. Autzen isn’t as big as some of the behemoths of the B1G. In reality, Autzen is only about half the size of Michigan’s “Big House” and Ohio State’s “Shoe” — but ...

  10. While we are all hoping for a season for the ages, just for sake of discussion, I thought I might throw out a little Donnie Downer perspective. I am looking at the schedule from three perspectives. The first, if the sky HAS fallen…we lost to the Beavers. If the sky IS falling…we lose to Boise State. If there are dark ... The Sky Has Fallen?

  11. What if… With expectations higher than I suspect any of us can remember as OBD get ready to open the season, I thought it might be worth looking at just how improbable this run has been from “…the worst of times,” to what is now perhaps, “…the best of times” with the grass now being “…damn green.” Mr. FishDuck took time ...

  12. Blazers fans can breathe a sigh of relief as recent news broke that the Portland City Council had agreed to a lease extension for the team to remain at the Moda Center. That provides the confirmed stability for the NBA side to remain in their home through at least 2030. There is also an option for the Blazers to extend ...

  13. Our Oregon Ducks football program has been busy. There’s a lot to love about how Dan Lanning has completely overhauled an already great team into an elite title contender.

  14. No, I am not trying to put a “whammy-curse” on Our Beloved Ducks with the title above, but as a season ticker holder for 38 years–my feelings about this team compared to prior ones are sincere.

  15. Love. It can evoke happiness, excitement, euphoria and satisfaction. But, it can often be frustrating, painful, elusive and fleeting. I recently took a road trip to visit friends, family, and most importantly, a love interest with whom I had been texting and video chatting for more than 2 months. We met up several times over the week and had a ... Natty: Do We Love Oregon’s Chances or Just Really, Really Like... FISHDUCK.COM Darren Perkins FishDuck.com, guilty of playing the game of love, wonders if Oregon Ducks fans love Oregon’s chances to win it all in 2024.
  16. The title above is not meant to be provocative, but something sincere for us to consider once I have laid out my argument. I could not help but think about this upcoming shift in defensive strategy while I was examining the Oregon Ducks Odds and after I took a look at the NCAAB site as well. The Oregon defense has ...

  17. Our Oregon Ducks football program has seemingly become a recruiting powerhouse overnight. The team was already great, but now they’re a top choice to win the whole thing.

  18. Expectations are running high for Oregon in their debut season in the Big 10 Conference, ranking among the favorites to win the league. The new contender in town will go against the old guard, Ohio State, and Michigan, who have long dominated the odds for the Big Ten. Despite recording three consecutive wins, Michigan isn’t among the top three favorites ...

  19. College football postseason bowl games have been pretty lackluster for the better part of the last decade. Bowl season used to be an award to teams with successful seasons. They used to be the pinnacle of the season, but now they are just another event in December. Sadly, they may even be the least interesting thing in an already overly ...

  20. In commemorating the end of the Pac-12, West Coast college football insider Jon Wilner of the San Jose Mercury News shared his football Mount Rushmore for each Pac-12 school plus a head coach. Mr. FishDuck goes way back with this theme, and took some time from his study of game boosting services to agree with much of what Wilner arrived ...

  21. Nope, not clickbait. Our Oregon Ducks football program has a legitimate shot at becoming the next big school for wide receivers to flock to. Now, we know about Tez Johnson and Traeshon Holden, and most of us know about Texas A&M transfer Evan Stewart. A handful of faces could emerge into that next rotation spot, but needless to say: there’s ... Oregon Ducks Football: New Wide Receiver U? | FishDuck FISHDUCK.COM Nope, not clickbait.

  22. Dan Lanning and Oregon have been on an absolute tear these last few weeks. It has delightfully resulted in the tears of USC and Texas fans alike, and Lanning isn’t done yet.

  23. The 2024 Oregon Spring Game did not show much of the offense anticipated this fall, it did give me many clues that got me excited, and made me do some research about two plays along with a strategy by Oregon Offensive Coordinator Will Stein that was intriguing.

  25. Dan Lanning, you absolute king. You must have noticed that Oregon is absolutely dominating on the recruiting trail right now. It is disgusting. Sad to see for the other West coast schools if we are being honest. But as an Oregon fan it is delicious. Lanning has never been a slouch as a recruiter. As a matter of fact, he has been ...
