Future Non-Conference Games in the Big-Ten?
I'd say keep it simple and schedule MW and former Pac teams. Minimize travel and and keep the team healthy for the real part of the schedule.

Canzano: Oregon to Get a Rude Awakening in the B1G?
The Ducks have been and will continue to do a great job of recruiting both O/D lines as well as skill positions. They'll be in the mix at the top of the BIG most years with some drop off with the occasional upset. The real question here is what will Canzono's lane be going forward? Does he embrace the Ducks national presence and climb aboard the bandwagon, or does he continue to stir the pot for the bitter Beaver fan? All I know is that I already don't care either way.

Mario snatching defeat from the jaws of victory yet again. Maybe he's why Stanford joined the ACC.

B1G Scheduling: The Right Path of Retaining Rivalries and BIG Games
What's worse for SUC fans. Getting beat by the Ducks every year or the prolonged dread before it happens?

Do Oregon Fans ‘GET’ How Special the 2023 Team Is?
I feel that this is indeed a special season and I'm glad this article points that out. I also think that this season has been and will continue to be a golden advertisement to any and all elite SEC players wanting to portal to a different school. Former five star players not having the career they hoped for only need to look at Bo Nix to see what can happen at UO. Also great players that happen to be stuck behind other great players in the rotation can look at guys like Khyree Jackson and see what becoming a Duck can look like. I think after next year, Lanning's recruiting classes will have stocked the cupboards full enough that mass portal renovations won't be necessary.

I Wonder How the "Meltdown" Fans Feel Now?
The UO detractors out there like to ignore the PSU results, say they barely escaped at TT, over powered an over rated CU and waltzed past a checked out Furd. Here, I'll go ahead and ignore PSU as well and pick up their string of scores beginning with the 4th Qtr at Texas Tech. TT 20-3 UH 55-10 CU 42-6 Furd 42-6 Total 159-25 That is against three power 5 and one group of 5 schools with one of them ranked at the time and two games on the road. Also,13 of the 25 points the Ducks gave up in that span were in garbage time. I don't ever recall a stretch like that in Duck history. Something special is coming together this season. Can't wait for more.

Cam Rising: Just in Time for Oregon?
I always want the Ducks to take on an opponent at their fullest strength win or lose. I also like be the spirited rivalry with Utah. With that said, I think it would be in his best interest to heal up and get ready for next year.

How Washington's Injuries Will Impact the Game
I’d say I’d prefer the fuskies to be completely healthy for their excuse free beat down but who am I kidding? They always have an excuse for their beat down.

How Tough Will The Dawg Game Be?
If Khree Jackson is healthy, I like our chances.

What a Bizarre First Quarter!
This was also my main gripe for the game. Just get that first first down and build a little rhythm before going for it all. One does not tempt fate down on the farm where bad things regularly like to happen.

Oregon Secondary: ‘No Separation’
Furd got the ball first and went on a 17 play drive the took half the first quarter and got a field goal. Ducks then had a three and out then Furd got it back and kept it the rest of the quarter.After they kicked another field goal, UO dominated the rest of the game 42-0. A weird quarter but I'm not to concerned.

Dan Lanning’s TEN Over-the-Top Surprises for Duck Fans
He seems to always be two steps ahead of what needs to get done. Remember when he was just hired and managing the best defensive unit in recent memory on a championship run and on the side, holding together UO's recruiting class? He even called Florence while leaving the championship field. He came in, got introduced and said the right thing in every interview. Then brought in top level portal transfers and plugged up the worst roster holes like QB and patched together a near playoff caliber team. His offensive and defensive concepts are both cutting edge state of the art and the staff he built has been top notch since day one. Not to be some homer fan boy, but it's hard to find much fault in how he has lead the team the last two seasons. In short, I'd say he's just a guy that gets it. Looking forward to where this is all heading.

Oregon Ducks Favored by 21 Points Against Colorado: Too High?
WSU destroyed CSU on the road. So would TT. So would UO. Ducks cover.

Dan Lanning is SERIOUS About Michigan State?
One of the most terrifying aspects of the Beavs this year is that not only are they legit built for this moment, they are playing for their Power Conference lives. They may be the scariest team in the PAC simply because they have the most to lose. In fact, I'd bet that if they go 5-0 or so, they would become the new national story replacing the Buffs after their loses begin to mount. The B12 really should figure out a a way to bring in both OSU and WSU. The best way for the B12 to compete with the BIG and SEC, is to have as many legit programs as possible in it.

Football Schedules for Big 10 and Big 12 Next Year?
I just hope all the chronic whining from SUC fans about UO joining the BIG cements UO/SUC as rivals. I'm sure if FOX wants it, it will happen.

Oregon Beats Up on Bad Teams Again
WSU destroyed CSU on the road. CU barely escapes CSU at home. Which do you think will be ranked higher this week? The CU hype train has just six more days until it derails.

Coach Dan Lanning's Old Colorado Comment Going Viral Today
I think Lanning put a target on his team's back for a reason. I think he wants to see who elevates their game to the moment and who doesn't. I believe who ever starts the second half of this game will be the ones he sees as the ones who are ready to lead. His words helped send this from a big conference game to a big national game. I'm sure he new what he was doing. It will now be put up or shut up time for both teams. Can't wait.
