What a season of college football! It has had its share of upsets, smackdowns, bitter rivalries, bias, and everything else that makes for an exciting season of action packed football. As we near the end, that crystal ball is coming into focus. The bowl games are looking more and more solid ...Published on: 22nd November, 2009
Wow. They picked a good game for College GameDay this week. I was expecting a smackdown of the Wildcats, and boy was I wrong. Oregon came back from what looked like a sure loss in the fourth quarter. A last second touchdown left the Arizona student section (who had already climbed over ...Published on: 19th November, 2009
So as we near the end of the season, the crystal ball becomes clearer. The Heisman candidates are starting to fall into place. Bowl game matchups are beginning to shape up. Then we have the Freshman Watch List. The tailbacks continue to dominate this list: they make up half of it. But ...Published on: 14th November, 2009
So, as we know, Oregon lost to Stanford this last weekend. Ridiculous. I actually threw my food at the TV. It was a pathetic loss. Oregon, one of the hottest teams in the nation, went down to an unranked conference team—after beating USC. What some people—in their focusing on the Ducks' failure—overlooked, ...Published on: 11th November, 2009
So here we go. Week 10 is done and gone, and the workhorses of several teams continue to be the freshmen. Oregon was amazed by Stanford, who, despite the scoreboard, really trashed the Ducks. LaMichael James loses his grip on the freshman race as Stanford's Andrew Luck makes the list. So maybe ...Published on: 18th October, 2009
So we all remember the day. Sept. 3, 2009. It's burned into every honest Oregon fan's mind. In addition to the idiocracy of LeGarrette Blount and the shame he's brought to the university, we have the whole rest of the game. Quite frankly, Oregon was the laughingstock of the NCAA. Since then, ...Published on: 7th October, 2009
You know, the NFL is always reaching out to communities. You see the commercials with the Manning's and others playing with kids; teaching them about staying fit, being active, and playing football. It's great to see the NFL so giving in these troubled times. But what about their own? The Lions, for ...Published on: 6th October, 2009
Pictured is the last time Oregon was in a BCS bowl: the 2002 Fiesta Bowl. This year, the Ducks will be in their second: The 2010 BCS National Championship. That's right, I said it. The Ducks are on a National Championship run. When the season started, everyone was saying it. Now you're ...Published on: 24th September, 2009
Jahvid Best is the number one halfback in the nation, and is currently sitting in second place for the Heisman according to ESPN. He's seriously called "The Best", and for good reason...he's tore it up against every opponent so far. The only half-worthy team they've played, Minnesota, he scored five touchdowns ...Published on: 21st September, 2009
The Ducks are now 2-1. It seems we're light-years away from Blount's idiotic punch, and I often catch myself asking, "LeGarrette who?" If you had a chance to catch the Utes game, you know exactly what I'm talking about. LaMichael James—as I predicted—stepped up big-time and took care of business. Our ...
