Now that is fascinating. The rushing yards are down compared to prior years, but 185 yards per game was still excellent, considering we were killing-it through the air. The final six categories to the right are downright astounding. I knew we were good, but your analysis really highlights it. Our points-per-game is not the same as the CK glory years, but in a relative sense Oregon was No. 2 in the nation for scoring in 2023, which is pretty green to me. That was Will Stein's first year, and considering the potent weapons and experience on the offense in 2024? Your analysis shouts that we're due for MORE! Great stuff. Thank you.

There is one major difference between the two sites Chuck… They actually get paid at On3, while everyone here volunteers their time for free to serve over a quarter million people who keep returning through the year to the OBD forum.

OK...I miss his passing and what he added, but what has not been said is how he would verbally abuse his sidekick broadcaster, and go off on tangents without covering the damn game we are watching. So no...he was a nice change from everyone else, a novelty, but not something I'd like seen across the board with college basketball. Sportscasters, stay professional....PLEASE. (A Waltonism)

Right. This is for 2025, but we have to reserve a year in advance, so it makes sense to announce it now.

Yep. It helps to explain to the poor Pig-2 that this is why we were invited to the B1G....

Ha! Talk about timing! The Athletic was noting the same thing in their surveys...

Mario knows where he's going....

I will admit that I pay attention to portal recruits than high school, because of the immediate impact they can make.

You were the "King of the One-Liners" back at Oregon as well!

My Duck-Buddies...this is the time of year where it is fun to ponder and then reflect upon--your own musings. I noticed recently how my time spent keeping up with recruiting has dropped...a ton. I was surprised at myself not knowing anything about the Top-Ten defensive tackle, Tionne Gray, in the Spring Game from the recent 2023 recruiting class. I used to be consumed with recruiting, and now I hardly keep up with who is visiting, who we're recruiting, and now it has spilled off into the actual players after they signed! Why would I do that after 30 years of truly being so deep into it? My theory is that Dan Lanning is recruiting so well, and so deep--that I take an attitude of simply seeing who emerges from the stack of great talent assembled. In the old days--we were in on SO FEW great prospects, that I was watching for everything about that player, and followed his recruitment closely. Now we're in on so many--it is too much to keep up with! Now some would say that I'm spoiled, but that takes a while. I am darned grateful for all the good news we get that at times, seems overwhelming. Yet Dano has set a bar so high--it seems only the real recruiting junkies, or those who do it for a living are truly on top of it all. Now I will continue to follow it, but not to the degree as in the past. Has your time spent following recruiting changed? Come to OREGON!

I'm not a big pack-rat, but I probably keep an inordinate amount of Duck stuff, and I found this when I was moving out of my house of 32 years recently. What a memory! The "Pick" happened right in front of me...

I will have an analysis article later that gives us the latest updated "Power" formation for key third and fourth down, along with goal-line plays. Love your stuff David!

I'll admit...I never thought over the years that I'd see that chart above...whew! After all these years it makes me want to....

Cristobal talked endlessly about being physical, while DANO is doing it!

Stopping this offense is going to be nearly impossible between this high-powered, passing attack and the fantastic blocking we’re going to get on the running game!

And how would the typical SEC fan react?

OK, those stats below are a hoot, but you gotta hear the video!

Above is the GoDucks picture of Limar from the roster...so yeah...it could be.

Jay Harris is the one on the far left....but I'd like to know who that is on the far right side!

First game is Saturday at 11:00 AM our time (PST) and too early for "IPA" time. Sunday is at 4:30 PM, and Monday is TBA if needed. Both days are on ESPN2! Let's do it AGAIN! Kevin Seitter gets his reward for pitching NINE scoreless innings!

Great article Darren, and I loved the video of the 1977 Championship!
