    Oregon's Evan Stewart WINNING the Biletnikoff Award in 2024?  Tall task.

     

    Evan Stewart comes over from Texas A&M looking to reach his full potential on the stats sheet, still without a 1,000-yard season in his career. He is poised to reach that mark in Oregon's high-powered offense this year, but could he do enough to snag the award given to the nation's best receiver?

    How should Oregon fans feel about Ducks being HUGE Playoff favorite?

     

    Oregon goes into the Big 10 as the #2 favorite behind Ohio State and they are now an even bigger favorite to make the Playoff as well. What should Oregon fans make of the Ducks being the third-most likely team to make the Playoff according to FanDuel?

     

    On today's episode of Locked On Ducks, Spencer McLaughlin goes on to talk about Oregon's wide receiving core in 2024. Could Texas A&M transfer WR Evan Stewart be a candidate for the Biletnikoff given to the nation's best receiver? 10:20

     

    Oregon is one of the programs that bolsters the depth in the Big 10 this year along with USC and Washington. How does this year's Big 10 compared to last year's loaded Pac-12? 19:45

    In my opinion, I like it.  Love the flying ducks, Mighty Oregon, and Fighting Ducks.  I think the solid green border surrounding the court is bold along with the "O" helps make the trees in green more of a faded look like a water color affect.

     

    I also agree it brightens up the arena with this new design.

    while the old court featured fir trees of brownish tints surrounding the borders, the new design swaps the brown for green and brightens up the arena tenfold.

    They have already explained that they can only do one major project at a time.  Right now, they are working on the new indoor practice facility, and with the restructuring of the streets and area--it has taken longer than originally planned.  Stadium expansion probably won't happen for four years, as they haven't even broke ground yet on this current project.

    Charles is correct.  Wanted to bring back an article about expanding Autzen.  Hidden in this artcle:

     

    When was Autzen Stadium built? A timeline of Oregon football’s home venue

    There's a lot of history to Autzen Stadium. When was Autzen Stadium built? Where did the Ducks play before it was built?

     

    AUTZENZOO.COM

    Autzen Stadium is the legendary home of the Oregon Ducks. The Oregon football team, one of the most prominent programs in college football, has a rich history.

     

    Here is the article about possible future renovations from almost a year ago:

     

    Expanding north side of Autzen Stadium ‘on our radar’ for Oregon Ducks

     

    Details are murky about exactly how much bigger Oregon is aiming to make its football stadium, which has officially seated 54,000 since the south side was expanded in 2902.  According to a source, early plans include the possibility of adding a second deck to the north side, which would closely mirror the south side of the stadium, and expanding and upgrading the Charter Box seating area.

     

    Enhancing Autzen Stadium would likely come after the completion of the new indoor football practice facility.

     

    WWW.OREGONLIVE.COM

    Autzen is the fifth-largest football stadium in the Pac-12, but it will be the 13th-largest in the 18-team Big Ten.

    He made strides in his freshman season, but in 2024, Uiagalelei is expected to be that dominate defensive player everyone envisioned him to be when he was recruited out of California.

    Defensive end/EDGE hybrid Matayo Uiagalelei is poised to become a star in his sophomore year on the Oregon defense.
