There’s no way around it: The Oregon Ducks football program did not have the game they expected in Wisconsin. They played out a hard-fought slugfest that ended with the knockout blow being a game-winning interception from none other than Matayo Uiagalelei, this game’s clear defensive MVP. He clinched the game on a batted pass and earned the Ducks their lowest-scoring …

Oregon Ducks Football: Gabriel’s Biggest Strength
Our Oregon Ducks football program showed out this weekend. In one of the best games in team history, this back-and-forth bout lived up to the billing.

Oregon Ducks Football: Biggest Threat From OSU
Our Oregon Ducks football program had a huge defensive victory this past Friday over Michigan State.

Oregon Ducks Football: UCLA Takeaways
Alright, this game went about as expected — but there’s a lot to work on, too.

In week three, Oregon found its identity—not a what, but …

Oregon Ducks Football: Wins are WINS
What. A. Game. First off – I’m not as worried about this team as I was in week one. I believe every team has a chance to turn small things around, and the only thing you can’t change is if you are a team that isn’t physical. It’s clear this team is physical, the missing pieces in my eyes are …
