Posted November 1, 20213 yr Administrator (Press Release from Oregon Athletics) EUGENE, Ore. — Oregon football’s game against Washington State on Saturday, Nov. 13, in Autzen Stadium has been scheduled for a 7:30 p.m. PT kickoff on ESPN. The No. 7 Ducks (7-1. 4-1) will travel to Seattle this Saturday (Nov. 6) to face Washington at 4:30 p.m. PT on ABC before returning home to host the Cougars. (Mr. FishDuck Note: Tough games like this are hard to wait for all day, and then it makes a late-night for a publisher. Crap!) Mr. FishDuck
November 1, 20213 yr Night games stink. Pac12 games have already become a 4+ hour stinkfest due to moronic officiating. Game will be over at midnight Sheesh
November 1, 20213 yr Heading to Hawaii tomorrow and get back to Philly the afternoon of the 13th. Guessing I'll still be very awake, in which case I'll actually stay up for this one.
November 1, 20213 yr Sounds like a big trap for us...WSU coming off a bye. This 730 pm start now pushes this ahead of UT on the road as the likely game we'd lose. We seem to have problems with WSU. Our pass D sometimes seems leaky lately, and even without Leach and a Head Coach, WSU lit up ASU on the road. (A better balance of run pass than recent WSU but still...)
November 1, 20213 yr I get TV slots but the Pac should be highlighting Oregon games! Isn't this team the cream of the crop??

November 1, 20213 yr Moderator I do despise Pac12 after dark. That has got to change when contract is up. On the East coast time for this game.....thank goodness for recording! These night time games are never good for Pac12 teams. Edited November 1, 20213 yr by NJDuck

Great minds, as I went to get the one you posted....but since I am known for Cat GIFs--I had to see if there were some and I had to post that one! Best of both! Mr. FishDuck
November 1, 20213 yr I just moved from Ireland to Portland a few weeks ago and I'm planning on heading to this game. What's so bad about a late game? I thought it would be better, all day to build an atmosphere, stadium under lights.
November 2, 20213 yr I too despise night games, especially when they are on ESPN! And after WAZZOO has a bye…

Some of us are old farts who do not like fighting traffic back to Portland and getting home at 1:30-2:00 AM...but you are right in that the atmosphere of a night game is great fun. Mr. FishDuck
November 2, 20213 yr Cool thanks. Staying in Eugene so won't need to worry about that. Any idea if they're only accepting CDC cards as proof of vaccination? I was vaccinated in Ireland so I've a digital European certificate. I've tried emailing but got no response. I'm trying to avoid phoning, only have an Irish phone, would cost a small fortune

I like to use my pull as a 35 year season ticket holder and Oregon Sports Media Credentialed site for our OBD members when I can. I will call them in the morning--my contacts. I want you in the stadium to be a part of "Shout" that happens at the end of third quarter. Every Oregon fan should experience that before they throw dirt on you... Mr. FishDuck

November 2, 20213 yr Trap Game = Any game you could lose = Almost every game on the schedule. I don't buy the trap game nonsense. We could lose to WSU because they might play better than we do. No trap involved.

We could lose to WSU because they might play better than we do. No trap involved. Absolutely right. You play better, you win. Your opponent plays better, you lose. No trap involved. Stanford beat us because they wanted it more and played better. Sure, there was a controversial call at the end, but had it been an Oregon receiver in the same situation Duck fans would have been screaming for a pass interference call. Had Oregon played up to its potential it never would gotten to the point where Stanford was in position to win. That was the real issue.

You get back home on Saturday instead of Sunday. The weather almost certainly will be better in the daytime. Tailgating works better for lunch than dinner. Easier to dodge post game DUI drivers in the daylight. And, a few fans east of the Cascades might tune in to watch the Ducks?
