Lame article. He states the obvious...."UCLA vs USC is a big game....as is Oregon vs. Utah." It is amazing what people get paid for writing crap...

Marcus Mariota was 6’3”. Akili Smith was 6’3”… How tall was Vernon Adams?

A 35,000 capacity stadium? Geez, do we need another Reser or Martin stadium? (This is part tongue-in-cheek) Just not very enthusiastic about it...

Great stuff David, and it sure ties into the "shortening the game" element I discussed, but also is a part of the "efficient offense." We are seeing some high-caliber coaching at Oregon!

Beavers win 37-24 Beauty or Beast?

EUGENE, Ore. – The Oregon baseball team will play 55 regular-season games in 2023, highlighted by 35 home games at PK Park. “We are very excited about our 2023 schedule,” head coach Mark Wasikowski said. “Featuring the 2023 University of Oregon team at PK Park 35 times including against traditional conference champions and high-RBI schools will give fans a tremendous opportunity to see the best college baseball team in person here in Eugene. Every week of our spring season will have at least one home contest. We really like our 2023 Duck baseball team and are looking forward to playing against the nation’s best here at PK Park.” The Ducks open the season in Eugene on Friday, Feb. 17, with a four-game series against Xavier before embarking on a four-game road trip at UC Santa Barbara, the defending Big West Conference champions. After the UCSB series, Oregon returns to PK Park for eight of its next nine games, including its Pac-12 opening series against UCLA (March 10-12). The Ducks also host West Coast Conference power San Diego in a four-game series during the homestand (March 2-5). In all, Oregon will host eight weekend series with five of them featuring Pac-12 Conference opponents. In addition to UCLA, UO hosts Oregon State (April 6-8), Stanford (April 14-16), Arizona State (April 28-30) and Washington (May 12-14) in conference play. The Ducks other weekend home series is a four-game nonconference matchup with Northwestern State (March 24-26). Oregon’s home schedule also includes six midweek games, including a pair against defending West Coast Conference champion Gonzaga (March 26-27) and Utah Tech (May 9-10). The Ducks play single home games vs. Niagara (March 15) and Portland (April 4). In addition to the UCSB series, Oregon will play five Pac-12 Conference series on the road. The Ducks visit Washington State (March 17-19), Arizona (March 31-April 2), California (April 21-23), USC (May 5-7) and Utah (May 18-20). UO also has single midweek road games at Portland (March 14) and at Oregon State (May 2).

Absolutely. This is the only place where you can state something "out-there," and people still have to be nice to you!

Ducks only have a 13% chance of winning the rest of our schedule and the Pac-12 Championship? (Article above) I would like to think our odds are higher than that!

Somebody should help Bill with punctuation....other than that it is great, and I'm glad for his passion. For a minute he did not divert into books read, trips taken, or insulting Dave--so that is a good thing too. Ronnie Lee over Bill Walton (thanks to 30Duck for the photo!)

Oregon has been in the Red Zone 46 times, and scored on 40 of them (only seven field goals) for an 87% percentage of total conversion. That doesn't suck...

Fantastic research Drex, and it makes us feel that what seems to be true by the eyeball test is true from the stats. Thanks so much...

I gotta keep this thread alive!

Really good point. We have something special going...let's not let one malcontent change the vibe....

More Oregon fans on Halloween...

Since Seven is no longer on the team, the restrictions about not going personal on a current player or coach no longer applies. But my friends...we have no idea what the truth is. While I will allow the comments, it makes me flinch.

Abbie was such a good sport about letting us dress her up....

I appreciate your kind thoughts, but I spent 10 hours yesterday working on FishDuck related duties and have no time for that... The easy answer we have all read often is that Bo did not have the offensive line, and the weapons at the skill players that he has at Oregon this year. I would also suggest that he did not have the explosive scheme at Auburn that he has at Oregon. Not to mention how the offense is designed around his skills.

She still has to love him...

Nobody disputes that, and the article was not about that at all. Just saying.

Really great to see that, as the Oregon Brand is BACK BABY!

I agree. That was an outstanding post, and I hope that jonson will post often. I learned a ton from the post, in particular the line about the five year span of no NCs for UCONN. No, Gene did not lose his coaching skill, and that is a good example for those of us who might be a bit critical of Coach Graves. We will have articles about Womens Basketball this winter, as Drex has an interest, as do many of our readers. (As do I!) Again...I want to welcome you jonson, and please post your thoughts often. (Football is good too!)

My FishDuck Friends...that is no sacks against Oregon in my first post. My apologies, as I should have been more clear.

When the offense is operating like this....YES. But look at what Coach Lanning had to say... Q: WHAT WAS YOUR BIGGEST TAKEAWAY OF THE TEAM AFTER TODAY'S WIN? Lanning: "Just that we haven't seen our best yet. I was hoping this would be a game where we could walk away and see our best and we haven't seen it yet. I'm excited to see where we can go but we have to tap into that and it's a choice we have to make. Hopefully that'll carry over into the future."

Fun stuff to ponder further... --No Sacks in this game again! --Scored 40 points for the seventh straight game. (That has not happened in eight years) --Oregon has won its 26th straight game when scoring 40 points or more. (Is that a major indicator, or what?) --The Ducks just won its 15th straight game when achieving over 500 yards in total offense. (Hello. Another indicator, and has nothing to do with defense) --Oregon held an opponent to 100 yards or less rushing for the fourth time this season. --Bo Nix is the first Oregon QB in 26 years to rush for three TDs, three times in one season.
