When I first heard the news that Lee Corso’s head had gone missing, I was horrified. How was he still living? Hey-oh! The hilarity of that joke aside, the mascot head of Mr. Corso is not to be trifled with. I surely wasn’t going to sit around and just let it go. That’s when I got all SPORTSbyBROOKS up in here.
GameDay Signs: An Early Look at Who’s Bringing What
Off The Pond got an exclusive look at GameDay signs being brought by some prominent people. Take a look.
UnRich, UnCool and Un4-0
The SI cover curse is still doing its thing. In 2003, Sports Illustrated declared Oregon to be “Rich, Cool and 4-0″ after a win over Michigan. Since that issue, the Ducks have gone a combined 0-3 after starting the season undefeated in its first four games. The last time Oregon made it to 5-0 was [...]

Hair of the Dog Needs to be the Stanford Cardinal
Sometimes, blogs get hangovers too, so if it seems the place is a bit dead, just know it’s refocusing and getting back up for another round. Hopefully, so too will the Oregon Ducks football team. Eugene was some kind of utopia on Saturday and given how early many got started with ESPN’s College GameDay, there [...]
College GameDay is Official
It was a no-brainer, but it’s been made official that the College GameDay crew will head to Eugene. I’m assuming this means Kirk Herbstreit will be calling the game for ABC or ESPN which means no prediction from the Duck skeptic. Bummer. I was counting on his USC pick to ensure an Oregon win. This [...]
"I'm having a difficult time finding six wins for the Ducks"
With reference to the headline, hey, I didn’t say it. That acclaim goes to John Canzano of The Oregonian in what now looks like a gigantic whiff. We all had our doubts after Boise State, but missing out on bowl eligibility? Quite a reach. Now, 6-1 Oregon goes looking for win number 7. Here’s my [...]
Hey Cal, Aren't You Excited For USC?
Psst, Cal, I just wanted to let you know you have a huge game against USC next week. It’s going to be epic. You’re a top ten team, they’re a top ten team (in one poll). I mean, it’s big, right? College GameDay might even visit your beautiful Strawberry Canyon stadium. That’s never happened before. [...]
