Drake Moderator No. 5 Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) After a big play they sign a shoe designed for this purpose, then pose with a Duck Scepter. At the end of year they auction the signed shoe off for charity. Why not, Seems fine to me. I suppose if there were only one shoe to auction off this year, then that would be really lame.

Jamal Hill provides origins of Oregon's 'Big Play Scepter' 247SPORTS.COM Oregon unveiled a new sideline tradition this past weekend.

Augduck No. 13 Share Posted September 7, 2023 I'm okay with it. The guys like it and in the end it's for charity so that's a good thing IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit. But each player hoisting the "scepter" signs the Nike shoe and eventually it'll be sold for charity. So I hear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
