As for "bar scene" near the stadium, the Moshofsky Center (indoor practice facility at West end of Autzen) is basically a giant sports bar during games. At the East end of Autzen PK Park (baseball stadium) serves as an outdoor beer garden (not sure how good that would be on a Friday night in...

Agree not a lot of great hotel options, The Gordon, Fifth Street, Graduate, and Hyatt are probably the best. When going to the game check out the bus shuttle service, it's the best way to get to the games without a lot of parking hassle. While in Eugene, check out the athletic facilities, I've...

Are you familiar with Eugene? If not I'll see if I can give you a few tips on how to enjoy your trip to Duck country.

As a Duck, I'm not commenting on any rankings of Duck gear.... Plenty has already been said on that subject. I will say my least favorite Big 10 helmet is the Nebraska block N helmet, it's just boring. I also think some of this is based on success or tradition at various schools. I sort of like...

Yea, hearing the same thing... LOL he won't be coming to Eugene any time soon.

Near Eugene, I've got a couple that produce some really nice wines, plus one that locals love for the environment (King Estates). Yea, good wines, a bit high priced in my opinion, but a wonderful setting and the food was decent. As for food in Eugene, we have some pretty good restaurants, but...

Yea, both are beautiful. I rowed my own 14 foot selfbailer raft for around 30 years, built my own flyrods, tied my own flies. Spent most of my time on the McKenzie River and the North Umpqua. I've also done a bit of camping, hiking, snowshoeing, etc.

Also, check out the "park and ride" services for getting to Autzen. In my opinion, it's much better than trying to get into a parking lot near the stadium, plus it's cheaper. For Creswell and Springfield, the bus terminal on A street in Springfield is probably your best "park and ride" location...

Naw, it's just the regular football crowd coming to town. When you get to Eugene, check out the Lane County farmers market as well as the Saturday Market, it' will give you a bit of feel for the Eugene. Plus, be sure and take a look at the various athletic facilities, The MATT, Hayward Field...

Weather Nov 15 should be around low 50s during the day and around high 30s at night. Creswell has a very nice golf course, Emerald Valley (home of the Ducks golf team) nice practice facility for the Ducks across from the public driving range. Also, check out the Creswell Bakery, they have a very...

Does this help, Oregon is 4-0 vs Wisconsin ove the last 25 years and Iowa hasn't beaten the Ducks since 1949. I agree the Oregon in the Big Ten is sort strange, it just doesn't seem right. Sort of like Nebraska, Rutgers, Penn St and Maryland being in the Big Ten. It feels wrong, but it is what...

As a Duck I'm partcial to Autzen. Not a bad seat in the house, lots of energy, loud and you feel like you're right on the field. The fans bring it and believe they are an influencing factor in the game's outcome. One other one as a Duck, Husky Stadium is one of the most beautiful settings for a...

If a guy is going to transfer do you want him on your squad? Get the right guys, do right by them and they will stay. At least one would hope so.

Yea, UCLA's bench may have been the second best team in the country in the early 70s. Still the Ducks took them down a few times. I'll share one UCLA story. The PIT (AKA Mac Court) was one hell of a home court. When the fans got going you could see the scoreboard that hung over the court start...

Maybe we could slip Pritchard, Dillon Brooks,Freddie Jones and Greg Ballard into the building. I was an undergrad during the Dick Harter and Kamakazie Kids days.
