How ever you cut it, he was a three star. I hadn't seen the four star rating before. Regardless, Mariota was a great college QB and he wasn't one of the top ranked QBs coming out of HS. Still I'll always love the guy, he was a great Duck. Plus, I know a little "hole in the wall" dinner that he...

Actually, he was a three star and on one or two rankings he was a two star.

haven't read the entire thread, but Marcus Mariota was a three star QB when he came to Oregon

$117 per ticket should be in a pretty good location. Of course their are no obstructed views in Autzen. Usually visitors are seated toward the back of section 38 or 39. Not bad seats, just not the best. It's a night game, 6pm kickoff, so it will be a bit on the cool side and yes you guessed it...

So how did this Oregon vs taildragger rivalry start? It seems to have started as a result of Cal contribution funds to send the husky rowing team to the 1936 olympics (huskies won the 8 man crew gold in front of Hitler). Congratulation Huskies (don't expect that out of me again). Later in 1948...

Well you can pump your own gas in Oregon now (I think it's been 2-4 years, I drive an EV). Originally, Oregon required gas station attendance to pump gas as a "safety" measure. Later Oregonians sort of enjoyed NOT pumping gas because it meant getting out of their cars in rainy weather to pump...

We're talking "rivalry" Oregon and the taildraggers. If you want to compare the two states, they have a lot in common geographically. Both states are very similar and beautiful, of course Idaho is a beautiful state as well. Sure if you're talking population, Washington is about 8 million Oregon...

I'd forgotten about "Red Delicious" apples. They are some of the worst apples I've ever eaten. Hate to disagree, but I remember them as being red. So they are selling those apples in Minnesota? As for a rivalry with the "taildraggers" have at it. I'll be pulling for your fencing team and any...

Naw.... He's already funding Stanford a bit. Sort of like to keep him happy at Oregon. He's done a great job of helping the U of O.

I've always been a fan of Justin Wilcox, local guy played for the Ducks, his dad was a Duck. He's a very under rated coach in my opinion. His biggest handicap is Cal.

What ever the reason, Duck fans were very thankful that he came to Eugene. I'm sure it was disappointing for Gopher fans.

I wasn't offended by the 20 points, I was just trying to clarify that the QBs aren't "fresh out of high school" as was implied. Perhaps I misunderstood.

Well it's just a case of a University of Oregon student athlete giving back to the university where he competed. It's not just athletics, it's the Knight Library, the Knight Law School, the Jaqua Center for student athlete academics, the Phil and Penny Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific...

I'm not on a "first name" basis with both of them, I'm just a typical Duck fan. We're definitely looking forward to Minnesota coming to Eugene. Friday night in Eugene will be interesting.

I certainly don't know much about how "Bucky" got to Eugene, but one local story was that he wanted to be called "Bucky" and something about that school in Madison kept Minnesota from calling him "Bucky". It's a simple thing but we heard it was a factor. If you're coming to Eugene for the game...
