I am not sure what kind of voodoo magic played out last weekend; all I know is that I’m exceedingly grateful for it.

But Voodoo you ask? Precisely. I won’t …

Caleb Couturie interviewed Arik Armstead at the Hatfield-Downlin Complex yesterday morning at the post-practice press conference for FishDuck.com.

Dear Stanford, I am writing on behalf of the University of Oregon’s football fan-base to inform you that our boys are ready to give you quite a difficult time in our house this Saturday.

Not only did Mariota …

“I’ll tell you this, “we’re not gonna get beat up. Our kids are big Midwestern boys, they’re tough. They won’t get beat up.” Joe Glenn If life were a cartoon, the Oregon football team would take the field at Autzen Stadium on August 30th to face the South Dakota Coyotes with roadrunners on their uniforms rather than ducks.
