Online casino market researchers have long noticed that there are many similarities between the average sports fan and online casino bettor. Such conclusions are made not only by scientists, but also by those who are directly involved in gambling, for example, our friends from the Online Casino Hub project.

Pac-12 Football: In George We Trust

Darren Perkins Editorials

There are a lot of hot rumors circulating around the Pac-12’s forthcoming media rights deal. Most of them are on the bad side. People are losing their sanity over the length of the negotiations because the assumption is that the longer they go, the worse things are. And, while that could be true, it certainly does not mean that it …

Will Stein: Oregon’s New OC and Miracle-Maker?

Charles Fischer, Mr. FishDuck Editorials

The title looks like classic hype to promote a blah-blah article, or serves as typical web click-bait. Yet those of you who have watched my videos and read my (Over 600) articles created over the last 11 years know I back up extraordinary claims with proof, or a logical rationale that makes sense.

Oregon Ducks Football: 4 Ways Lanning’s Ducks Can Finish Games Better in 2023

Alex Heining Editorials

Our Oregon Ducks football team’s ability to finish games was brought into question heavily after this past season. Now that the 2022-2023 season is behind us, I think it’s time we start looking to the year ahead, and what this team can do differently to be more successful in the fourth quarter of games through 2023. Hopefully, these changes will …

It’s Time to Feed the Beast – Get Bucky Irving the Ball

David Marsh Editorials

Oregon had a strong one-two punch this last year in its two main running backs, Bucky Irving and Noah Whittington. Both had their moments and regularly generated explosive plays. Oregon also rotated in Jordan James and Sean Dollars at times, though in more limited roles. Dollars has since left the program and James will continue to grow as Oregon’s big-back …

Oregon Fans Should Brace for Lanning’s Mudslinging Strategy

Charles Fischer, Mr. FishDuck Editorials

All the changes to college football with the portal, NIL, conference realignment and media rights have created discussions we never dreamed of having as Oregon fans even five years ago. The change has been so rapid as to easily surpass our patience with much of it, and yet when you have movement one direction–there are equal repercussions in other directions, …

The Transfer Portal Makes Dreams Come True

Darren Perkins Editorials

Like a lot of Oregon fans, I was surprised when I heard the news that Brock Thomas, a quarterback from Eugene’s Sheldon High School, committed to the Ducks as a preferred walk-on. After all, Thomas was not only not recruited by any of the “big-boy” programs, he was not offered a scholarship from any Power Five school. His list of …

Trojan, Bruin Players Will Regret the Move to the Big-10

Charles Fischer, Mr. FishDuck Editorials

It is my contention that the players in all sports at the LA schools have not truly thought through the movement to the B1G. Note I stated it is the actual players, not the fans or administrators who will regret the move eventually, although I have not heard of many UCLA fans who are in favor of leaving the Pac-12. …

Oregon Ducks Football: New Touchdown Leader in 2023?

Alex Heining Editorials

Our Oregon Ducks football program has had some all-time great scorers in the past. Now, with offensive coordinator Kenny Dillingham out, we can expect the offense to look a bit different in 2023 with a new touchdown king potentially taking the throne. Of course, this excludes passing touchdowns, but does not exclude quarterbacks. Bo Nix was in fact the touchdown leader in 2022 …
