Although Dargan had a stellar year and was a crucial part of the Ducks making the National Championship, apparently – to some — that wasn’t enough, as he was snubbed from the 2015 NFL Combine. Dargan is seen by many …
Nationally, all minds have focused on Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariota and who will fill his giant, humble shoes. My mind is elsewhere, namely, on the Oregon Ducks defense. The Ducks offense would not be The Duck Offense if it weren’t for the guys on the field the most.

Everyday that goes by puts us one day closer to the Rose Bowl on January 1st, quite possibly the biggest game of the season not only for us but also for many of our Ducks’ careers. The team is taking the field in normal practice schedules just as they have done before every game this season but they are working …
There is no official word yet from the University of Oregon’s Athletic Department, but the Ducks will likely be without their best defensive player when they play Florida State in Rose Bowl. According to sources, All-American cornerback Ifo Ekpre-Olomu suffered a major knee injury at practice yesterday.

Going into tonight’s game against the 17th-ranked Utah Utes, Coach Mark Helfrich and his team knew they were in for a battle.
