In the second annual “Halloween Costumes For All,” OTP takes a look at what prominent figures in college football are going as this weekend.
Boise State: We Are Proven
Because it appears to be “Irritate Boise State Day” on the blog, here’s a little video pulled out of the comments from the last post
Link Roundup: TV Loves the Ducks
Larry Scott told me to market these links in Asia if I want more attention. All the more reason to like ABC’s Modern Family when they drop subtle references to the Oregon Ducks even if it is in a losing cause. Cliff Harris is officially my favorite quotable player. First the “I ain’t Miss Cleo” [...]
Who to Root For
Thanks to a suggestion from NautiDuck in a comment yesterday, I’m starting an occasional feature to keep track of who to root for every week. Currently, there are two things in play for Oregon: the Rose Bowl and the National Title game. Both take place in Pasadena. With regards to the Rose Bowl race, we [...]
Ladies and Gentleman…We Have a Punter
I dug deep for the most optimistic headline possible. That’s the best I could do. Congratulations Jackson Rice, you are good. Now, for the rest of the story. Sports will humble you fast. It’s a constant roller coaster and there are moments like Boise State, 2009. You can doubt what you saw a year ago, [...]
It's Time For Football
The wait is over. Let football begin. Say goodbye to your wives, your girlfriends, your husbands, your boyfriends, your FOTBs. Put the home repair projects on ice. Postpone weddings as necessary. Employ the full arsenal of personal, sick and vacation days. Make sure your home theater system isn’t overly quiet. Get the new 60″ properly [...]
Pressure's On For Boise State
Boise State has made the goal clear; it’s BCS or bust. And who can blame them? They have a marquee game at home on national TV to sell voters on the legitimacy of their BCS campaign. After Thursday, they get to disappear for the next 3 months and rack up wins against the likes of [...]
Answering Yesterday's Question…No, Boise Can't Win
I played nice for a day. I pondered the reasons Boise State might win this football game on Thursday. Turns out, I probably should risk everything and put all I have on an Oregon win. It’s a lock. Here’s why. Revenge. I normally don’t get too hyped on the revenge angle. It has failed to [...]
Primary Reason Oregon Wins Thursday? The Forward Pass
A year ago, we watched with horror as Boise State waltzed into Autzen Stadium and pantsed Oregon 37-32. This year, it won’t happen again because the Ducks have rediscovered the forward pass. Given that coach Eddie Cochems, known as the “father of the forward pass,” had Brad Robinson attempt the first legal forward pass in [...]
Fear "The Blue?" Only if Your Team is Cupcake U
If Oregon is going into Boise St. mode, then so is the blog. I got my Countdown-to-Kickoff wallpaper freshly downloaded from the Idaho Statesman (TGIT) and am ready to rumble. First up…let’s talk about that home record. Apparently, Duck fans are supposed to be afraid of this 30,000 seat stadium with turf picked out by [...]
