Dan Lanning, you absolute king. You must have noticed that Oregon is absolutely dominating on the recruiting trail right now. It is disgusting.

I have been looking over various media outlets’ predictions for who will make the upcoming 12-team College Football Playoff. Naturally, the first thing I do is check to see where the Ducks are placed; nothing new there. Then, my instincts are to check on how many Pac-12 teams have made the field. Oops.
