Real interest, or just watching his brother? Word has long been it's tOSU, UO and USC, but maybe not.

Sounds like TX is favored, but it would be worth a call at least.

A good breakdown of the post-practice interviews today from Gabriel, with our top five takeaways from what the Ducks said today. Worth the read!

FAMU @7pm.

Looking across the top 25 it's hard to see any potential upsets.


One to watch, no 3 Huston on 11/20, and then TG weekend PKI, that could end up with UNC v UO, a dream match were it to happen.

Gabrial Marvin reflects on the full gamut of creativity Kenny Dillingham showed Saturday ...

One area which needs MAJOR improvement is 3rd down defense. I talk about that in stat of the game:

Really good early analysis of the upcoming big game. I don't recall where, but DJ was mentioned in an article as a guy who's draft stock is rising. Scott alludes to his importance in the UW game I sure hope him and Cota are good to go.

Dana Altman talked about this at Pac-12 Media Day, that he thought he could fully unleash Dante this year as he was further removed from his injury and all the way back to full strength. If last night was any indication, Dante could be in a huge season for the Ducks indeed.

Jacob has the story -- sorry for delayed post, I fell asleep early because I had a 5:50 a.m. flight from Vegas to LA.

A look here heading into late November:

Here's how I see the most likely path for the Ducks. Let me know if you disagree or have other thoughts.

Here is Jacob's recap of today's win for the Ducks.

Who you got?

Beat Northwestern and led from the get go! Some talented freshman talent mixed with some key returnee’s will lead to a fun year!!

Jacob Hamre looks back on cornerback Christian Gonzalez's memorable return to Colorado as he made two picks against his former team.

I hate those butt-sniffers so much, I want a hundred.

F*ck the Huskies!

Today in Flock Talk, thoughts on the analytics creep into college football plus the NCAA is falling apart at the seams. My paragraph on that topic is near the end.

"It is time for a radical change. Not a slow change, but a radical redirection for college athletics. The NCAA is a rudderless ship drifting in the ocean with a disemboweling hole in its hull."

tOSU just scored but were down much of the 1st.7/7.
TCU up by 3, 13/10 at the half. They wont survive this plus the next 2 games.
1 loss UNC down to UVa at the half, 10/13.
I guess we can flip back and forth to watch UG v Tenn.
