Oregon’s Key Transition Time Brings Excitement…

Jordan Ingram Editorials

Oregon football is coming off a historic season, securing its first Big Ten title and earning the No. 1 seed in the College Football Playoff. With Dan Lanning at the helm, the Ducks maintain momentum in recruiting and the transfer portal. While football is soaring, Oregon basketball is searching for answers. The men’s and women’s teams have had their share …

Oregon Football: Where Will Gabriel Land in the NFL?

Alex Heining Editorials

Dillon Gabriel put on a show for our Oregon football program in his last college football season, and now, he has been impressing scouts at the Senior Bowl ahead of the NFL Combine finishing off the month. Mr. FishDuck was interested in Gabriel’s NFL Draft status, and thus took a break from his fun studying FanDuel Sportsbook odds and NCAAF …

B1G vs. SEC: Top-Heavy or Balanced? Which IS Better?

Charles Fischer, Mr. FishDuck Editorials

Recently the entertaining SEC propagandist, Paul Finebaum, asserted that the SEC is still the best conference, “top-to-bottom.” I’ve heard of over-the-top exaggeration before in college football, but he says it with a straight face despite how the B1G has won the last two national championships, and how the SEC was not even in the Championship games of 2023 and 2024. …

Does Oregon’s Defense Need to Change for 2025?

David Marsh Editorials

Sometimes it feels like Oregon’s defense is cursed. While the offense has consistently performed well over Oregon’s history, it always feels like the defense is letting the team down. This last season, the offense performed well, if not up to the 2023 levels (I have outlined in previous articles the decline of the 2024 run game and passing game), and …

10 Questions for 2025

Darren Perkins Editorials

Turning back the calendar a year, who would have thought that the Ducks would have had a 13-0 season? It did not end the way we were all hoping, but it truly was a magical ride of a season. So, what is going to happen in 2025? 1) What will Oregon’s record be and how far will they get in …

How Should Duck Fans Remember Chip Kelly?

David Marsh Editorials

If this article was written a month ago it would be rather uncomplicated, but Chip Kelly recently took a shot at his former team and Dan Lanning’s absolute brilliant 12-man on the field play that sealed the Oregon win over Ohio State back in October. In saying that Oregon needed 12 players to beat them, it diminished the success and …

Three Thoughts on the 12-Team Playoff

Darren Perkins Editorials

We entered the 2024 season knowing that the 12-team playoff was upon us, but the impact was not truly felt until December, after the playoff had started. Since it has now fully been felt, I expect some changes in the ways that coaches strategize their regular season. Mr. FishDuck took a break from his review of valorant upcoming events to …

Oregon Football: National Championship Predictions

Alex Heining Editorials

Our Oregon football program is now a few weeks removed from the Rose Bowl loss, and Ohio State is facing up against Notre Dame. In what was easily the most unbearable watch of the season, the Buckeyes have looked unstoppable from January 1st on, and I expect more of the same in the National Championship game today. Here’s my score …

Texas Makes Oregon Feel Even Worse

Darren Perkins Editorials

Outside of perhaps the most ardent Ohio State Buckeye haters among the Oregon faithful, we all wanted Ohio State to make mince meat of Texas to help ease the pain of Oregon’s Rose Bowl debacle. It did not happen. In fact, Texas played the Buckeyes tough until the end, leaving Oregon fans to bemoan, “Why the hell couldn’t we do that?!” …

Oregon Football: Most Exciting Freshman in 2025?

Alex Heining Editorials

Our Oregon football program hasn’t taken a single day off since the season ended, and recruits have been flying in (and out) for weeks—even after signing day. Dan Lanning luckily has zero concept of taking his foot off the gas and had 13 wins in his third season with the Ducks to show for it. Now, we look to the 2025-2026 roster …
