The Civil War count stands at 112. It’s about to move to 113. Through all those games, there have been just a handful that have truly mattered at a national level. In recent memory, a Pac-10 title has been at stake four times (that’s since football began in 1994). Before that, I’d guess the total [...]

Ridiculous. Fantastic. Nauseating. Joyous.
I may still be in ICU but they can’t stop me from blogging. Some Sunday thoughts… Let’s just get this out of the way. Arizona played a hell of a game. Oregon put up 44 on them, but I felt that was the best defense Oregon has faced all season. The Wildcats were disciplined and [...]
More Football, Less Work…Let's Blog, Shall We?
Damn you day job…don’t you know my true love is Oregon Duck blogging? How dare you distract me. Let’s catch up on the week so far. What’s more fun? Reading about LeGarrette Blount or Getting Hit By Him? I have a medical condition known as Blount Fatigue. I don’t want to hear about it anymore. [...]
On Location From San Jose…Wait, That's Not "On Location." Okay, try again…Within the General Proximity of Palo Alto, the Blog Foresees More Duck Dominance
Week 10 Predictions PreNicktion: Oregon 43, Stanford 21. Been way off on margin of victory lately. Going big this week. FOTB Prediction: Green helmet, white jersey with green numbers, green pants, white shoes. You can simulate this combination here. This week’s prediction post takes on a different approach after having read Jon Wilner of the [...]
FOTB Presents: Halloween Costumes For All
Halloween and Autzen Stadium were made for each other and people are pulling out all the stops. I got an early look at the list of costumes being worn by certain celebrities. Note: This was the FOTB’s idea, so as such, she gets sponsorship of the post. Matt Barkley as Ken Doll Byron Hout as [...]
Passable Pac-10 Picks – Week 8
I’m barely getting by here, but you have to understand, it’s the coaching. I can’t take the blame for Jim Harbaugh messing up a game his team mostly dominated. And there’s no way I’m letting Steve Sarkisian and Nick Holt off the hook for that stunt they pulled down in the desert. Nope, 2-2 wasn’t [...]
Chip, You're Freaking Me Out
Chip, I’m going to level with you. The inscrutableness of your injury reports is starting to wear me down. Everyone with a ding in fall camp was day to day. And now, so is C.E. Kaiser even if he’s currently on crutches. Four weeks after a high ankle sprain, T.J. Ward is still – yep [...]
The Week in Links
There were many an interesting link this week and while I can’t keep up with it daily, I’ll try and sum up the week with some of my faves each Friday or Saturday. From AddictedtoQuack, an in depth look at the struggles of Jeremiah Masoli in poor weather situations. I’d be interested to see that [...]
Twelve Sunday Thoughts From Oregon vs. Cal
Sunday is so much nicer after a win. I’m young. I always operate under the assumption that football started in 1994. So when I say that was the best all-around performance in a regular season game by Oregon, it’s without a lot of perspective. Still, it’s hard to imagine the Ducks ever being more abusive [...]
If Picking Oregon is Wrong, I Don't Want to Be Right
Week 4 Predictions PreNicktion: Oregon 27, Cal 20 FOTB Prediction: Not this week. The retro unis are in effect, thereby taking all the fun out of guessing the uniform combination. You wanna’ know something? I’m a fan and if I don’t want to be logical, then dammit, I don’t have to be. So sets the [...]
