Fans and pundits took to social media to express their disappointment over the No. 3 Oregon Ducks‘ 24-14 season-opening win against the Idaho Vandals. In most dimensions of the multiverse, the Ducks steamroll the lowly Vandals, and the postgame cleanup crew peels them off the astroturf with a spatula. Mr. FishDuck took time from his fun at online sports betting …
Like a majority of college football teams, the Oregon Ducks didn’t play this weekend, leaving a gaping void inside the green and yellow hearts eagerly awaiting the start of another exciting college football season. While there are so many things to look forward to starting next week, including a new stud quarterback (Dillon Gabriel), a new conference (Big Ten), and …
Dan Lanning, you absolute king. You must have noticed that Oregon is absolutely dominating on the recruiting trail right now. It is disgusting. Sad to see for the other West coast schools if we are being honest. But as an Oregon fan it is delicious. Lanning has never been a slouch as a recruiter. As a matter of fact, he has been …
So many of the “Greybeard” Oregon fans on the Our Beloved Forum recall the days in the 1970s, when both Oregon and Oregon State were equally bad. I was chatting with Mr. FishDuck and pulled him from his fun at sports betting online to ask him who, among our many coaches, changed his opinion most about the direction of the …
2023 saw one of the most experienced Oregon teams in memory playing high-level football from the start of the season until the very end. But with some recent announcements, 2024 looks to see an even more experienced group. The Stud Linebacker Jeffery Bassa announced his return to Eugene, in a move that was only a little surprising. Bassa has turned his …
Dan Lanning has a lot of pressure entering this offseason. Sure, the new year will determine weather the Ducks land a major bowl win, but the offseason is where the pressure really starts to ramp up. Lanning is the first coach since Mike Bellotti to not win a conference championship in their second season (besides Willie Taggert who only coached one season). …
Tyler Shough is the only player since Marcus Mariota to start in multiple seasons for Oregon after not starting as a true freshman. Sure, Mariota is the greatest Oregon Duck of all time, but he left the team nine years ago, and during that time only Shough has pulled off what seems to be a pretty simple feat? So what has happened during …
Seventeen days before early signing day and Oregon appears to be in a fantastic spot on the recruiting front. Currently sitting at second in the Big-Ten, how is the Ducks current class preparing them for the move to their new conference? Class Strengths Perhaps the most important position for Oregon to improve at, defensive back, sees the team with several …
It was all on the line for Oregon on Friday night in Las Vegas, and they blew it. Not showing up for the first quarter was a pretty bad start. Being down 20-3 was never going to lead to an easy win. But the Ducks had a shot in this one. Oregon went up 24-20 with 1:51 left in the third …
Recently there has been a lot of chatter about the best one loss team in college football. It is a fair question, since the season is winding down and there are a massive pile of teams vying for only a few playoff spots. So what does Oregon need to do in order to set themselves apart from the crowd? Well, …
If you had told me, at any point, that the final score was going to be 35-6, I would have assumed that Bo Nix got hurt early in the game and the defense didn’t show up. I would not have believed that it was because the Ducks were just demonstrably better than Utah in every phase of the game, at every …
Coaching is what defines a team. In 2010, Oregon’s coaching got them a spot in the BCS National Championship. In 2019, their offensive coaching was so poor that it made a potential NFL Hall of Fame QB look mediocre. And in 2023, at the midpoint of the season, Oregon’s coaching looks… suspect. It was the first possession of the second …
