Greetings Fish Friends! Every week I create video blogs (vlogs) to update all you fine folk on all things FishDuck, a free-form discussion of current events about Oregon Ducks sports and all that’s new with FishDuck.com, with the occasional off-topics or rants. It’s a little off-the-cuff, perhaps slightly pretentious, somewhat rambling, and hopefully entertaining…so kick back, relax, drink up, and …
Josh’s Video Analysis: Stopping Wisconsin
Wisconsin has one of the most talented offenses in the nation, backed with talent and size at every position, this will be, undoubtedly, Oregon’s biggest challenge this season. Superstars Monte Ball and Russel Wilson will pose even bigger problems for the Ducks than Andrew Luck and Matt Barkley did earlier this season, and their massive offensive line is reminiscent of …
Oregon’s 2001 Postseason: Part 3
Despite the disappointment of the BCS excluding Oregon from the Rose Bowl (site of the national championship game that year), the Oregon team and fans had a lot to celebrate. Most fans were ecstatic to see their beloved Ducks headed to represent the Pac-10 against a very good Colorado team. The general Eugene atmosphere was very positive as the team …
For former Oregon student-athletes, a little recognition and respect is all they ask
Doing this weekly column for FishDuck.com has been a great pleasure for me, not only being able to relive many great moments from Oregon sports past but also to interact directly with the student-athletes I idolized while growing up in Eugene, hearing their personal stories, all the great tales on the record and a few off the record as well. …
Getting To Know Wisconsin: Defense
Another week has come and gone, and now we find ourselves just 14 days from the 98th Rose Bowl Game. The break from Duck football the last few weeks has been a harsh adjustment, to say the least. Sort of like losing an arm- crippling, painful and awkward at first- you are left with no choice but to adapt and eventually get the hang of the day to …

Greetings Duck Fans & FishDuck enthusiasts. I wanted to start my first column here on FishDuck with a quick hello!

It’s a little off-the-cuff, perhaps slightly pretentious, somewhat rambling, and hopefully entertaining…so kick back, relax, drink up, and let’s talk a little Duck sports. The views expressed in these videos are strictly my own …
Bowl-gazer: Pac-12 to go 4-3
How could it be? How could the Pac-12 have three teams in the top six of the final regular season AP poll and still be underdogs in six of the seven upcoming bowl games? USC’s ban from postseason play, for one, which meant league also-rans got bumped up to better bowls. Match-up problems, for another. And lest we forget that …
Through the Years
Playing “Who’s Your Favorite?” as a Duck fan offers hours of fun in remembrance. Most of us have a favorite play, favorite player, favorite moment, or favorite year. Sometimes it’s the great player (Joey Harrington, Jonathan Stewart, LaMichael James), or the great play that sealed the great season (Maurice Morris rolling over Colorado…literally.) Sometimes, though, it’s the player or team …
The Fish Report: Scoring on Wisconsin

This video will accomplish two things. It will introduce you to Wisconsin’s strengths and shortcomings, and will also give you insight into Oregon’s offense as they …

Oregon’s 2001 Postseason: Part 2
Just a little over ten years ago at this time, the final NCAA BCS rankings were released. At 11-0, The Miami Hurricanes were the only undefeated team and earned the undisputed #1 ranking in each poll. The Oregon Ducks were one of only four one-loss teams at 10-1, and had done everything right other than their difficult, heartbreaking loss at …
