From Video We CAN learn something new from an ugly loss and not just looking at why we lost! In the past two years I have noticed a new movement taking place in the backfield that at first I identified as a new “Universal Formation,” and now with new, up-close footage, we can better determine the part it plays in …
From Video How many times after this last game did you hear media sources other than EugeneDailyNews/FishDuck.com declare that, “the Ducks limited Mariota’s running opportunities.” Or “the Inside Zone Read play is bottled up!” How many of them actually know what they are talking about or can prove those assertions? Unfortunately most of them are parroting what they have heard …
From Video Has the emotion of the Stanford game worn off of you yet? For so many of us — it is almost impossible to objectively look at an Oregon football game as it is being played or shortly after, and give an accurate assessment of it. Yet after some days have passed and I have gone back to study …
from Video As of Wednesday, November 6th, 2013, the beginning of a partnership between FishDuck.com and the online newspaper, EugeneDailyNews.com will commence. My friends — I cannot continue to operate as I have in the last year. FD.com has become a full time job in itself that does not pay anything, as the ads do not cover the costs …
from Video How about an article concerning our upcoming game against Stanford with information you have NOT seen in all the innumerable media sources out there?

from Video We heard from ALL the coaches after the game about the extraordinary job done by our defense to hold UCLA to a couple of short-field scores, but HOW did they do it? Offensive players expressed their gratitude at how our “Green Wall” kept us in the game until they could get things untracked. At FishDuck.com, we have not …
Craig Strobeck Holding on to an Oregon “secret” for a year and a half has been difficult, as ongoing games have confirmed the accuracy of the previously “undisclosed.” This game against the Cougars revealed TWO new Oregon strategies within the offense that now render the old secrets null and void, thus we can now delight in learning about them, and …
from Video Oregon fans that read this site have become accustomed to the unusual game plans assembled by Chip Kelly, and we have had some dandies to study over the years. The natural question concerns whether new Head Coach Mark Helfrich would do the same? Justin Wilcox had faced the CK game plan last year, and he had better defensive …
Cliff Grassmick It was fun to watch Jeremiah Masoli get there, and when Darron Thomas got there — it helped to take us to the National Championship game. I am referring to the Advanced Stage of Zone Reading that few quarterbacks rise to, as it has become evident to me in the last two games that Marcus Mariota has crossed …
Craig Strobeck My friends — I could not take two whole days after the game to make a video, thus for those who wish to learn, we still have the text and screenshot format below. We DID add a new entertaining component in new GIFs of the plays described, to see it that much better. Charles One of the fundamental …
The shot across the bow of the college football world has been delivered by our beloved Oregon Ducks. The question of balance concerning the Oregon offense was answered against Tennessee when Marcus Mariota threw for more than an incredible 450 yards passing. The Ducks are known for a powerful running game that, due to execution, is difficult to stop — even when …
