How dare you put my Ducks down with U$C... ;)

I personally think Michigan is going to slide this year and USC is going to surprise people. And obviously (assuming both are undefeated at game time) I'm very much looking forward to the buckeyes in Autzen this fall

Just my gut feeling, I'll take the gophers in this one. They play LSU on the road, Oregon at home, then travel to Penn St. the three weeks before hosting the gophers, I suspect they will be pretty beaten up by the time Minnesota comes to town.

This article should take population into account. Minnesota has about 1.5 million more people than Oregon

Maybe this is just a problem for universities located in metro areas with significant competing sports teams. I don't see problems in Eugene, Lincoln, Champaign Urbana, etc.

I personally don't mind Friday games, especially in Eastern time zones, however, playing Michigan State at Autzen (assuming a night game) on Friday just kills the national audience. We also, got a Friday with Purdue at Purdue, two Friday's for my Ducks, so it's interesting and we'll see how it...

To much talk about Oregon vs Ohio St. It's just too early, I'll get wound up about Oct 6th if the Ducks are undefeated at that time. It's the old take them one game at a time attitude. We've got old Oregon St (in cornvalley) and new Oregon State (MSU) to deal with before Ohio St. Plus who knows...

Ok, I'm pretty new here, just trying to learn more about the B1G ten conference that my Ducks will be part of in the future. Here are a couple takes on what I've observed so far (based on visiting a few big 10 boards), lots of emphasis is put on retaining in state athletes, lots of fans have...

If you are talking basketball you might want to check out where Gonzaga is located.

This is really difficult to understand..... Eastern Washington is not WSU. Spokane, WA is just 30 miles from WSU. Spokane metro population is probably a bit over 500,000. Also, referring to "nearby college rivals" is interesting, what qualifies as "nearby"? The perception of distance is much...

I disagree a bit with the comment about Oregon, they've had an incredibly high number of injuries the last couple years. It's not about doing less with more, it's about doing what you can with limited numbers. I think Oregon was playing with 8 scholarship players for a chunk of this past season...

Well I got curious about the Ducks Hockey team. It's a Division I Club sports team within ACHA. I know nothing about college hockey. I do see Iowa St., Rutgers, Colorado, Colorado St., Arizona, Washington and Western Michigan were on the schedule 2023-24 schedule. I have no clue whether any of...

Honestly, I just don't see much interest in hockey in Eugene. I think, basketball, football, baseball, softball, track and field, volleyball, soccer, golf, tennis, and cross country will be the primary focus for a while. Perhaps beach volleyball and acrobatic and tumbling will get a boost in the...

I'm not saying the Ducks don't have a very nice group of receivers for next year, but the "Autzen Zoo" website would probably have the Ducks winning the Big ten hockey title next year and we don't even have a hockey team.

Maybe they just play road games till the new stadium is usable. Give them a home team cut of the money and overall attendance would probably be higher than holding games at some stadium with little room for fans.

Didn't realize it was that far, my map says 75 miles or about 1 1/2 hour drive. So yea it is further than I thought, still it's doable.

Seems like Northern Illinois isn't too far from Northwestern, I think they seat around 25,000. That seems like an ideal temp spot for NW if they could work out a deal.

Liberty just doesn't belong. The Wyoming's of college football would destroy Liberty.

You do realize that USC has finished the season ranked in the Top 25 about 50% of the time over the last 15 years. Basically, they have been inconsistent since the Pete Carroll cheating days.
