Our Oregon football program opened the season with a trouncing of Montana State, 59-13, in Autzen. Now, let’s get this out of the way right away: Both Oregon’s offense and defense played outstandingly in week one. This was as good a performance as I’ve seen the Ducks have in at least the last ten seasons, if not more. The offense …
The Oregon Ducks, ranked No. 7 nationally and expected to make another run at the College Football Playoff, begin the 2025 season with an unusual yet comforting blend of elite talent, tactical secrecy and unflappable swagger. Whatever wunderkind Oregon coach Dan Lanning is serving up, bottle it and sell it. Only Lanning’s magic elixir of charisma, dedication, hard work and …
Our Oregon football season is finally here, folks. All the hype, speculation, and roster adaptations will culminate in 60 minutes or more of Oregon Duck football at 1:00 pm PST this Saturday. Montana State comes to Eugene to battle the 7th-ranked Ducks, and Dan Lanning gets a premier opportunity to kick this team’s gear into championship overdrive. Now it’d be easy …
Our Oregon football program took a massive blow this offseason, losing Evan Stewart for the foreseeable future as WR1. We took some time post-injury to evaluate who would step up as WR1 now, since Stewart was a massive downfield asset for stretching defenses and allotting Dillon Gabriel time in the pocket last year. Dakorien Moore is a reasonable answer down the road, just …
This is not a conversation I wanted to have about Oregon football in June. In case you missed it, Evan Stewart is expected to miss most (if not all) of the 2025 season due to a torn patellar tendon. Following the injury, he addressed Duck fans with this message: “Don’t put a timeline on me.” As someone who believed in …
Our Oregon football program has lost most of its 2024 offensive identity in the offseason. Tez Johnson, Dillon Gabriel, Jordan James, and Josh Conerly Jr. are a few of the many faces on offense we won’t see return to Autzen this upcoming season. Among the players that head coach Dan Lanning has added in the past few months, Nico Lamaleava should not …
Along with Derrick Harmon and other Ducks, Josh Conerly Jr. has been flying up NFL Draft boards in the offseason. He profiles as a borderline day-one starter for most teams, and could be an instant-impact player at the next level. Even Mr. FishDuck was excited to discuss the NFL future of Conerly, and took a break from his study of …
Lyndsey Grein didn’t just throw a game. She authored a near-religious experience under the lights of Jane Sanders Stadium. The Virginia Tech transfer mowed down No. 8 Florida State, tossing a one-hit shutout on Friday as No. 12 Oregon (21-2) silenced the Seminoles 2-0 in one of the Ducks’ biggest home wins in years. Even Mr. FishDuck took time from …
Dillon Gabriel put on a show for our Oregon football program in his last college football season, and now, he has been impressing scouts at the Senior Bowl ahead of the NFL Combine finishing off the month. Mr. FishDuck was interested in Gabriel’s NFL Draft status, and thus took a break from his fun studying FanDuel Sportsbook odds and NCAAF …
Our Oregon football program had a fantastic first season in the B1G, winning 13 games, and making it to the Rose Bowl after knocking off three of the conference’s best. Now, we have some time to look back and ponder on a tough, tough question: What was YOUR favorite play of the Oregon football season? Mr. FishDuck took a break …
Our Oregon football program is now a few weeks removed from the Rose Bowl loss, and Ohio State is facing up against Notre Dame. In what was easily the most unbearable watch of the season, the Buckeyes have looked unstoppable from January 1st on, and I expect more of the same in the National Championship game today. Here’s my score …
Our Oregon football program hasn’t taken a single day off since the season ended, and recruits have been flying in (and out) for weeks—even after signing day. Dan Lanning luckily has zero concept of taking his foot off the gas and had 13 wins in his third season with the Ducks to show for it. Now, we look to the 2025-2026 roster …
