Hopefully the SoCal of it all will get a lot of Ducks hyped up. I mean we can never match the level of Hype that Coach Subprime inspired but the California connection is a biggie for some players.

I, for one, would be happy to have UO play osu* if they agree to pay us our fair share of their looted Pac 12 funds. *Mr. Fischer, please note that capitalizing of either uw or osu reflects a certain level of decorum and respect that a truly petty Duck fan should never rise to, in my opinion.

Well, win out and that's that. Lose and you give up control.

Oregon 31-17 2 TO 1 Sack 169 Passing Yards, NICE!

Charles, I think you have an infiltrator because no actual Duck fan asks about the weather at Autzen. ARREST THEM!!!

He wanted a big duck in his mouth, apparently.

I would love to play Miami and then Indiana but I guess that is unlikely. But boy oh boy what petty joy it would be to ruin their happiness! I say new uniform combo for the 2nd game would be Oregon Grinch Green with petty yellow highlights.

They certainly didn't give a championship effort against an inferior physical team in Indiana ON OUR HOME FIELD. So if you want a championship team you have to have both the mental and physical, plus some luck. So I would say no, at this moment the Ducks are not in title contention but as we have no actual idea who is good beyond a couple of teams, I guess we might win a game or two in the playoffs if we make it.

No

I like our defense, but they do have a tendency to have a mind-numbing brain fart when it is 3rd and 7 or more, and the secondary will be inexplicably out of place quite often on such plays.

If someone can please explain why we constantly see one or two Oregon defenders standing in no man's land and defending nobody I would be very happy.

College football coaches might be the Vizzini-est of all American sports.

Spitty is a beautiful weather word.

How about passing downfield instead of moronic bubble screens that are never blocked correctly?

The photo was taken in Upper Nile State in 2011 just after the formation of South Sudan. The guy was utterly confused as to why a random white guy was walking around his remote village and why I wanted to take his photo.
