  1. 2023 commit to LSU, Dayton Austin. He talks about his visit to Oregon. He has a relationship with Coach Lanning.

  2. Some of the best high school players in Canada and one of the North America's premier high school programs, the Okotoks Dawgs came to take on Oregon in a Wednesday night scrimmage. Some news and notes from Oregon baseball's Wednesday night scrimmage 247SPORTS.COM As the college football season jumps into week seven, fall baseball is alive and well at campuses across the country. Look no further than the backyard of Autzen
  3. Welcome Byron, enjoyed your article, looking forward to more from you. Fubo.tv gives me all the sports channels, including Pac-12 network. With Fubo you get 1,000 hours for recording. Schools to look at for expansion: If we are looking at Mountain West schools, to me UNLV and SDSU would be the choice. UNLV is tier 1 research institution, Las Vegas is the mecca for Pro sports/betting, etc. Great venues that already host Pac-12 championships for football and basketball. Las Vegas media market ranked 40, but is one of the fasting growing cities. SDSU does give us a foothold in the Southern California area. They are in the process of working towards tier 1 research institution. They just finished building a brand new stadium. Personally rather have them in the Pac-12 and keep the Big 12 from getting a foothold in our region. Grab these schools before they enter into the Big 12. BYU (ranked 21 academics amongst all institutions in the country), great fanbase nationally, travel well. Would be big rivalry with Utah. Houston, in big media market city. TCU or SMU (rolling in money), both in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, big media market. There is also the ACC. Form a coastal conference with them. Use the new stadiums in Las Angeles and Las Vegas to play games between the two joining conferences. Take the Rose Bowl back and away from the Big Ten. Use the Rose Bowl to form a new alliance with a top bowl game with the ACC, SEC and or the Big 12. All I am saying is the Pac-12 needs to be creative to bring in more regions and become maybe a 3rd Big conference to compete. More good media markets. To get those better media markets the conference needs to look beyond our own backyard. Bring in more value to the conference. Use the Pac-12 network to work along side with a streaming company like Amazon or Apple. Also use a linear company like ESPN. Have both linear and streaming. The presidents and chancellors need to move out of their comfort zone and allow our commissioner free to be creative and allow him to do what he does best. Like what Charles said, there needs to be incentives for universities to receive more revenue for their schools. I am not sure really what is the best solution, but the Pac-12 needs to be proactive! Otherwise the only other solution is for Oregon to except an invite to the Big Ten if invited to survive.
  4. If all standing room only tickets are completely sold, I believe Autzen will be over-flowing at 60,000
  5. Duck Territory have chosen their Midseason MVPs, top bench players and top freshmen for offense and defense. What's your thoughts? DT Roundtable: Oregon's midseason offensive and defensive awards 247SPORTS.COM DT Roundtable: Oregon's midseason offensive and defensive awards
  6. Home field advantage seems to be the theme in this article. Glad Oregon has home field advantage against UCLA, Utah and Washington. Upcoming game against UCLA is already sold out, standing room only tickets left. Autzen will be ROCKING!! Canzano: No place like home in the Pac-12 WWW.JOHNCANZANO.COM My Week 7 picks
  7. "Matt Prehm, Erik Skopil and Jared Mack discuss on how do we view the play of Oregon's defensive position groups this season? Who has been the MVP, the star freshman, and top reserve for Oregon's defense through its first six games of the year?" PODCAST: Review of Oregon's defense and projecting its MVP at season's halfway point 247SPORTS.COM How do we view the play of Oregon's defensive position groups this season? Who has been the MVP, the star freshman, and top reserve for Oregon's defense through its first
  8. This article goes along with should we root for USC or Utah? Donovan James take on the game, what might be Oregon's best interest which school should win. Though, my feelings is too much distaste for USC to root for them. But i am in a quandary, it might be best for Oregon and maybe Pac-12 if USC wins. Oregon makes it to the championship and soundly beats USC.. Ducks Wire editor: Good if USC wins, but UO fans won’t support Trojans TROJANSWIRE.USATODAY.COM .@Ducks_Wire editor @ZacharyCNeel said a #USC win would help the #Pac12 … and that Duck fans likely will support Utah. They don’t want Travis Dye to win at USC.
  9. Ducks survived a trip to the desert in an impressive fashion. Oregon Football: 5 notes from Oregon’s usage report in 49-22 win DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Josh Conerly and Jahlil Florence see their biggest days yet, and Jeffrey Bassa can’t be kept off the field. Our snap count takeaways from Week 6.
  10. Heisman buzz is certainly starting to grow for Bo Nix. Last week he was No. 10, he is now No. 7 on the list. This year's stats so far: 70.4% Comp/1,524 Yards/8.2 YPA/12 TDs/3 INTs 40 Carries/331 Yards/8.3 YPC/8 TDs Oregon Football: Bo Nix jumps up Heisman Trophy award list DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM The stats don’t lie, and the votes are starting to pile up as well. Bo Nix is building a case as a legitimate Heisman Trophy candidate.
  11. "Shift of tone from kevin Warren. It seems Warren and the Big Ten are backing off, for now." Canzano: Big Ten sounds like it's standing down vs. Pac-12 WWW.JOHNCANZANO.COM Shift of tone from Kevin Warren.
  12. Agree, need more information. Not believing it at this point.
  13. Not a bad idea freezing out scheduling any BIG Ten school, in turn alienating USC and UCLA. Pac-12 can always schedule games with the ACC, Big 12 or SEC. If we get a loose agreement with the ACC, take the Rose Bowl out of the equation with the BIG TEN, if possible, and start a new tradition with the Rose Bowl playing the ACC or even the SEC.
  14. I thought this as well. I thought Kelly should have kicked a field goal instead of running it up the middle. This is something Charles pointed out, I did not catch in that championship game with Auburn. If you look at the attached play below, our RB took the wrong path to the end zone. He should have ran where it was blocked well to the outside. It would have been a TD and a different outcome to that game. Great designed play to the outside, our RB made the wrong choice.
  15. Glad he received the recognition. Kenny Dillingham named Pac-12 top coordinator for Week 6 DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Oregon’s Kenny Dillingham the top coordinator in the Pac-12 after its 49-22 win at Arizona.
  16. Oregon ranking, total offense No. 5, previous ranking No. 13. Total defense No. 68, previous ranking No. 72. Oregon Football: Where Oregon’s offense ranks nationally after Week 6 DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM The Ducks rank in the top 10 for scoring offense and rushing offense. They rank top 5 for total offense, and No. 1 for sacks allowed. Vintage Oregon. Oregon Football: Where Ducks’ defense ranks nationally after Arizona DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Oregon stepped up to the challenge and stifled Arizona’s passing attack. Where does that land them in the national rankings?
  17. Great response from Altman when asked about the home-and-home series with Michigan. Dana Altman doesn’t mince words about Michigan home-and-home series DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM “They have a hard time answering the phone, I guess.” Dana Altman expects to see Michigan in Eugene, but doesn’t know when.
  18. This game already a sell-out, standing room only tickets available. Autzen will be rocking! Utah's defense lost some great players from last year's team. They are without their talented TE playmaker. I think this made a difference in the UCLA game.
  19. In referring to the three benign ones. I might be extreme, but I am not comfortable with any of them, even number two. People will always try to push the envelope as far as they can. Give them an inch, they will take a mile. Number two for example, instead of "Please, please, please...Never play Ty Thompson again...Horrible." A more reasonable response would be "my observation from Ty Thompson's last performance, I can see he still needs time for development along with game time experience in the fourth quarter. He will improve in due time" The other two is throwing shade against said player or coach.
  20. Negotiations still on-going, maybe beyond past November. Oregon/UCLA, must win for Oregon to make path to Pac-12 championship easier. GameDay visit? Canzano: A dozen things to think about WWW.JOHNCANZANO.COM Monday musings...
  21. Already a sell-out game against UCLA at Autzen. Oregon announces reserve seats sold out, standing room only available.
  22. Good article comparing Bo's stats compared to Caleb Williams at USC after 5 games. Oregon’s Bo Nix is getting Heisman buzz after fifth straight win SATURDAYOUTWEST.COM Bo Nix is balling out for the Oregon Ducks and fans are starting to take notice.
  23. The offensive line returned to form after a penalty-riddled Stanford game. They opened up big holes for the tailbacks and Bo Nix was protected which is an amazing stat! Our defense was tested by Arizona's passing attack, but for the most part, they held up and didn't allow Jayden de Laura go wild. Oregon took the sell out crowd out of the game. Report Card: Ducks turn in their most complete game in Arizona DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM In the 49-22 win over Arizona, the Ducks turned in their most complete game of the season at the perfect time.
