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 …

Jordan Ingram Uncategorized

The No. 24 Oregon Ducks softball team unleashed a scoring downpour this weekend in sunny San Diego, racking up 42 runs in a five-game sweep at the 32nd Cartier/Campbell Classic at SDSU Softball Stadium. The Ducks (8-2) closed out back-to-back doubleheader wins on Friday and Saturday with a 12-5 rout of UC Riverside on Sunday morning to give Oregon its …

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 …

Competitive Gaming in Oregon and Beyond

OregonReigns Editorials

As popular as traditional team sports, athletics and racing remain, people all over the world are getting involved in competitive gaming. We now live in a digital age, and, like it or not, screens play an important role in how we work and how we play. Gaming itself has undergone a huge transformation in recent years – modern games are …

Oregon’s Offense Will Pick Up Where It Left Off

Joshua Whitted Editorials

Kenny Dillingham did wonders for the Oregon offense in 2022. He helped resurrect Bo Nix’s career by developing him into a top-10 quarterback, he reintroduced a high-flying, explosive offense that fans had been desperately craving, and perhaps most importantly, his influence helped Oregon reclaim its identity as an offensive juggernaut. Dillingham is deservedly now running his own program, and that …

Building Lanning’s Defense: Who’s Calling the Shots?

David Marsh Editorials

We haven’t seen an official announcement or media introduction yet, but it appears that Dan Lanning has hired Chris Hampton to replace Matt Powledge, who left to become the DC at Baylor. Hampton’s twitter bio states that he is Oregon’s Co-Defensive Coordinator and Safeties coach, and there are tweets that show he is out on the recruiting trail, which is …
