Run it Back is a weekly sampling of thoughts following the previous game. The “facts” presented are factual because the blog says so. Oregon is better at receiver than we realized. The passing game is much improved with Darron Thomas at quarterback. Before, wide receivers always looked like better blockers than playmakers, but look what’s [...]

I Won’t Do it… I… “Does Stanford Have Enough Luck to Overcome the Ducks?” Aaaahh, It’s Irresistible!
Writers are running out of ways to preview this game. But there’s still one interesting angle to explore.
Link Roundup: It’s All About the Ducks
These links is all Duck today! I’m digging deep celebrating the greatness of Oregon football. And without the services of down-and-out DuckSportsNow.com, it’s tough work. But I’m here to help.
Prodigious Pac-10 Picks – Week 5
Whew, that felt better. Missed only UCLA-Texas straight up and Oregon-Arizona State against the spread last week. That made for a cool 5-1 in both cases with only a measly half a point keeping me from perfection (ATS). Dammit Chip, you gotta’ get these guys scoring in the fourth quarter!

Link Roundup: Big Game, Big Links
A big game deserves big links. Here’s a national media edition of Link Roundup.

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 [...]
Ranking the Pac-10 – Week 5: Not Yet Stanford (Actually, Not Ever)
This blog will not move Stanford to #1. What’s the point of rearranging something for one week if you’re just going to put it right back?
Poisoned Pac-10 Picks – Week 4
An ego is pure poison. Sure, I went 7-3 last week, but any sap could have done that. It’s the 1-8 record against the spread that was the betting equivalent of gargling acid. Just like that, I don’t know what I’m doing. Straight Up: 24-4 Against the Spread: 10-11 Posted spreads are from sportsbook.com at [...]
Sooo… Arizona State This Week, Huh? Should Probably Talk About That
We need to talk about Arizona State here, people. I mean, we can’t just ignore that this is going to happen all week right? Well, by we, I mean this blog and the content within it. I already know you and I are busy consuming useful and informative content elsewhere that you most certainly won’t [...]
