He’s actually doing a very “Western” thing. Fishing addiction is just as big a disease in Oregon as it is down South. The tug is the drug.

It all depends on QB play. The Ducks have great WR’s, but if the QB has a habit of throwing to the other team then they may need to lean on the run.

Oregon’s problem is getting too freaked out in clutch time. They always seem to play really good against great teams then falter at the end. Yes, I’m still salty about the Final Four game against UNC.

I’m with you on this. I would’ve let Cota walk-on. That’s about it. He had his chances to prove himself at UCLA and was a below average player.

I thought he had already played at Oregon and then for the Colts in the NFL.

I agree with Fentress.

Nix is known for beating better teams in the home opener at a “neutral” site. Well, he’s done it once anyway.

Where does Dye and Verdell fit in? They’re up there, but they couldn’t electrify Autzen like LMJ, KB, LGB, JJ or JStew could. I would probably put them 4th behind these guys and the Morris/Smith combo. BTW, Travis Dye shirts are selling on the Duck Store site at a steep discount. He’s even modeling them. I still don’t know how I feel about a Trojan modeling Duck gear. Even if his name is on it. Send the remaining shirts overseas with our 2022 Pac-12 Championship shirts.

This…. ….Because of this.

Then he scored the eventual game winner against Purdue on a 3rd and very long.

He was underwhelming at best during his time in Westwood. I wouldn’t burn a scholarship on him. He could walk-on though.

The ACC and the PAC have some bowl affiliations. A game with them could happen sooner than later.

Speaking of transfers. What ever happened to Danny Mattingly? He left Eugene with eligibility and he never played football again.

Always be on good terms with wealthy or influential alumni. Unlike the Gonzaga administration who thought it might be a good idea to suspend John Stockton’s season tickets. He’s worth 8 figures. Good luck getting a check from him when you need it.

He was on the team that beat the Dolphins in Palo Alto. Marino’s only Super Bowl.

Auburn is a complete mess and it all revolves around a guy named Bobby Lowder. He’s the one who pushed Gus out the door. Then, he tried to lure Mario away, but he got his new contract from Oregon so that fell through. It was speculated that if Oregon hadn’t replaced Washington in the Pac 12 championship game then Auburn may have had a shot. It’s obviously a moot point nowadays. If that isn’t enough, Lowder then tried to push his boy Kevin Steele for the Auburn job (some say Steele was also behind Gus’ firing), but that idea sent the fans into an uproar (#stopsteele). So, they hired Harsin who didn’t want Steele on his staff. Steele then went to Tennessee as DC for Pruitt which lasted 6 days. Pruitt was fired and Steele was named interim HC. The funny part is Gus goes to UCF to replace Heupel, who took the Tennessee job and promptly fired Steele. I’m surprised Mario hired Steele because he doesn’t have the best reputation. However, this whole fecal extravaganza was started by Bobby Lowder because Gus didn’t beat Saban enough times. The only other school with worse boosters is Texas. If they don’t at least go to the playoffs next year Sark will be fired. You can count on it.

Yes. Willie hired him as DC in 2017. Mario had him in 2018 before he fired him.

Just like Kent Dorfman.

That heat has quite the reputation with the “Half-backs” here in NC. In case anybody is wondering, a half-back is a Yankee who retires to S. Florida, realizes how hot it gets and then moves halfway back home and settles in the Carolinas.

As much as I wanted OSU to win that game (I was pulling for the underdog), the Miami fans are correct.

I haven’t been to a whole bunch of games at Autzen, but I’ve seen the crowd pretty angry and that Cal game wasn’t bad at all. That was just some grumbling. I was at the Arizona game the day after Thanksgiving in 2010 when they were undefeated and ranked #1. Mike Stoops started going nuts on the refs about a targeting call against one of his players. Autzen gave him an earful. The more animated he got with the refs the louder the boos got. Great times.

He’s got an OC and a DC sitting in his lap. Mirabal and Salavea should demand promotions. They’ll never have any more leverage than they do now.

DAT was pretty good on his two carries in the 2012 Rose Bowl. He was 2 for 155 with 2 TD’s.
