It’s never to early to get the smack going !!! Fall camps have started around the country, season starts Labor Day weekend!!!

Gonna be an epic fall !! Got tix for the Cats in September, then in Oct , headed back to Oregon to see the Ducks live for the 1st time in 10 years got a hotel in Eugene and my sons are coming, taking the kids to
Eugene a few times a year was a family tradition when they were little

2012 Ducks vs Huskies was the last time I remember having both boys with me at a Duck game together.. good thing about still having some family in Oregon don’t have to uber or rent a car to bump around…. Good luck to everyone on your team and season …. Quack !!!!

I'll talk smack!

Can't wait to see the Cats upset the Ducks on the opener!

Defend the Land! O-H!

Wisconsin is going back to ground and pound like they always have. It would be nice to be Running Back U again.... and Linebacker U... Jim Tressel really needs to be fired. Turned a perennial top five defense into one the worst in CFB. There's absolutely no excuse for that. What worked at Cincinnati does not work in the B1G... it's a grown assed man's league.

Gonna hav mixed feelings on that one , watching my 2 favorite teams play , last year Idaho gave the Ducks a real game , Oregon had some starters out on the O line , bout cost them , I’m leaning Oregon by 21

Badgers in Eugene Oct 25 ! The ducks are doing a special homage to the Grateful Dead for that game, about a week ago, they dropped a hint on social media and today was the pre-sale order for the shirts. I ordered one. The Grateful Dead used to play at the football stadium from time to time decades….

Gonna be interesting to see what uniform they’re sitting on because they’re calling a tie-dye out the stadium.


QUACK !!!!!

Got to see the Badgers back in 2001 when they came to Eugene, Barry Alvarez was coach , he always had a good team !!

I picked up tickets for the Indiana game on 11 October because the 13th is the Columbus Day holiday so I can pick up an extra day on the backend of the trip !

I was at the game in 2004 when Indiana came out to Eugene and the ducks had seven turnovers and lost by a touchdown , set the tone for the season. It was Oregon’s first losing season in 11 years. I still have the poster in my garage , I’m still pissed !
Now Indiana is a way better team, but getting to see Oregon and Indiana play 21 years apart. I don’t get the same experience. lol



The other thing I’m most excited about going back , is in the 20 years. I went to games in Eugene. We always tailgated on the north side of the stadium because that’s the easiest way on and off the freeway to get back to Portland

The south side of the stadium is where all the students and people that come from that side do the historic river walk , you get to walk a foot bridge over the Willamette river through the forest to the stadium , so getting to do that with my sons for the first time Gonna be pretty
amazing !!!! Our hotel is right across the street from campus ! They triple the room rates for gameday weekends!

The 1st poll is out , I call BS on OSU being ranked over PSU to start the season , PSU has the most returning dudes from a semi final team last year , and I know Ohio State won the championship, but they’re breaking in a new quarterback

 

[WNC2500]

@Little Big Man MT Chris: Tigers ranked 6th and Oregon 7th already creates smack talking!

 

[Little Big Man MT Chris]

The only thing getting smacked is that tiger ass when they meet the ducks in the playoffs !!!!

I think Oregon’s ranked where they should be somewhere in the bottom half of the top 10, our quarterback is a five star. He played a year at UCLA and then when Chip Kelly left to join OSU he bailed and joined the ducks

even though he was a starter at UCLA he sat on the sidelines last year and backed up Dillion Gabriel and got a full year of experience in the Oregon system so I think he’s actually gonna be pretty decent player with all that extra practice time , I’m expecting Oregon‘s defense, though too lead the way in the first part of the season.

I hate to say it but put OSU over PSU. Franklin can’t win big games.

I get that , but for a preseason starting point I’m going off the returning starters

PSU @ OSU Nov 11

Ducks @ PSU Sept 27 … white out game on prime time 5:30 kick , I don’t like Oregons chances in that one, PSU will be fired up and looking for revenge off the B1G 10 title loss

8-23 that’s one of the earliest starts I’ve ever remember seeing for D1 college football, I knew that they had games starting Thursday 28th and going through Monday the 1st Labor Day weekend, the four days of football, but I didn’t know they were starting one a week early

They’re doing it in Ireland. I had to look up where that stadium was. I remember when Georgia Tech won last year in Ireland, but I didn’t think it was a week early. I thought they started last year and then gave a bye week after the travel.

Good time for college football fans I’ll be watching

I'd really like to buy into the Arch hype...but it's way too early and last year's early success against scrubs means nothing.

If he doesn't look like superman UT's armchairs will eat him alive.

It’ll probably take a good five or six weeks before we get a clear picture of who the top 4-5 teams are that have a real shot at making the championship… I think PSU and Texas are 2 of them right now

@noharleyyet , Oregon lost its number one wide receiver for the season Evan Stewart to a knee injury in June , so my ducks have already taken a serious hit

I like our team I think 11-1 or 10-2 and two is what I’m expecting. I think a 9-3 season would be a disappointment, if there’s no major injuries, and I like what Dan is doing on defense

We just picked up 2 5star recruits for the 2026 class over the weekend, one of them was the best player in Alabama Tank Jones who chose the ducks over the Crimson Tide yee Yee !!!

The other was a cornerback Devon Benjamin that picked Oregon over Texas, Washington, and Michigan and North Carolina… Oregon always had amazing offense, but we’re getting defensive players like I’ve never seen. I’m excited for the direction. Dan has his team going.

Right now I’m comfortable with Oregon being considered a playoff team, but I’m not ready to jump on the bandwagon for a final four semifinal team
