NOT the Worst Oregon Opening Season Loss

Recommended Posts

Along the lines of "I'm looking for some remotely positive Duck news after todays total annihilation" --- I'm not exactly sure I found it.

 

After getting completely trashed and losing by 46 points, my fear was that this may be the worst opening loss our Ducks have ever had.

 

However, I believe I have a little bit of good news, and that is going back 106 years to 1916, we have had 2 opening season beatdowns WORSE than today.

 

I know... I'm such a glass-half-full kind of guy.

Hey, at least we didn't make history today.

 

Although, it was the third worst opening season loss we've ever had.

We can thank Kirby Smart for not making this worse than it was.  It could have been 63-3 if he had felt it was necessary.  Maybe he likes Dan too much to pull a Bob Stoops stunt.  I see Oregon dropping clear out of the Top 25, down to <30.  It's going to smart (no pun intended).

The fact that you had refer back to the leather helmet days to find a worse game is an automatic fail. lol

LOL. Sadly though, it was 1974 @ Nebraska 61-7, followed by 1975 @ Oklahoma 62-7.

 

I just checked back as far as I could find the scores, which was 1916.
