Week 7 picks are due by 9 AM Pacific Saturday 10/17/2026

How we feeling DUCKS?!! Local Eugene legend game coming up?

Anyone else watching the Ohio state defensive line dominate and think to themselves we need a 180 degree turn around to even think about competing?

I'm super worried about this one considering the glaring issues that the ducks have. But I still think the ducks prevail 35 - 28

I remember reading an article about all the bigtime recruits and commits that were visiting Eugene for the UCLA game

I wonder how recruits felt seeing their prospective team perform so badly. It HAS to affect their perception of the Ducks negatively, doesn't it?

I also wonder how weird it must be for the people hosting or chaperoning these recruits having to try to keep positive after such a devastating loss

Go Seminoles! Go Mormon Cougs!

As tough as it's been this season, the odds are improving.

I like Marcus Mariota. Was a good Quarterback of Oregon Ducks back in his college days.

The last time the University of Oregon had consecutive regular-season losses was during the 2017 season. Am I crazy thinking we can keep that streak alive today?

Heading to Eugene tomorrow from NorCal, it's our first time! I'm wondering if anyone has had any issues with brining in a small crossbody purse that's just slightly over the limits. Online says 4.5" x 6.5", mines about 6" x 8", how strict are they on the exact size? TIA!

I already know Drew Mehringer will have this offense looking atrocious. Hamptons a 50/50 whether it’s a decent game or bad game for the defense. We are this years 2025 Penn state. I’m hoping for a W but am prepared for an L. Quite a few starters out and questionable with “INJURIES” could make for a long night. Hope I’m wrong, but have to keep it honest.

The idea of a meeting in competition between Dylan Raiola and Nebraska felt almost too distant to acknowledge as a possibility two months ago.

And with Oregon’s season on the line? It was far-fetched when Raiola directed shade at his former program in August.

“We have a lot more talent than we did at Nebraska,” Raiola said in a preseason news conference. “And I don’t say that to knock on them.”

Raiola’s comments were difficult for the Huskers to interpret in any way other than as a knock, even if not his intent. They share a complicated history with the junior quarterback.

And now the prospect of that reunion, steeped in intrigue, is real.

With the announcement Wednesday night that Dante Moore, Oregon’s incumbent starter in 2026, remains out this week as he recovers from a concussion suffered in September, Raiola is in line to play — and perhaps start — as Nebraska visits Autzen Stadium for a 10 p.m. CT kickoff on Fox.

“It’s going to be weird,” Raiola said last week of envisioning the Huskers as his opposition.

Some on the Nebraska side might choose a more vengeful label for the opportunity to compete against Raiola. The psychology of this matchup appears to favor the Huskers. They can more easily achieve the mindset of feeling the need to prove something against the QB who left Nebraska late in 2025 after two seasons.

“There (are) opinions around the building of what he does really well,” first-year Nebraska defensive coordinator Rob Aurich said this week. “But this is going to be a good opportunity for him — and a great opportunity for us to go get after him.”

Any moments?

Last week was pretty forgettable, but it's a new week and a new team to face. Will we shred the Cornhuskers to kernels or not? It remains to be seen...

Mehringer is the oldest at 38. Samples(RBs) is 31. Douglas(WRs) is 31. Koa Ka’ai(QBs) is 33. Terry(OLine) is 31. Jack Smith(TEs) is 28. What was Lanning thinking in putting this staff together? Seems worth noting that Oregons only unit performing well is special teams, coached by 53 year old Joe Lorig.

I’d posit that, yes, 15 or whatever years ago it was highly exciting to be recruited by an Oregon squad that had radical new unis from Nike every game.

Today, that means almost nothing. NIL is king—show me the money, not the uniform.

Indiana, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Michigan, Alabama, Penn State, etc etc all keep it as they always have and no one is avoiding playing for them because of uniform choice.

And there might even be a “brain muscle memory” type thing where players always see the same colors and know instantly exactly where their teammates are on the field. But sure, that’s a stretch, maybe.

Who’s up for making it classic yellow and green permanently, versus new colors every game?

I mean watch the ESPN documentary....

Dude basically says no matter what success you have, you always have room to grow. He builds programs, fast, and wins nattys in a couple of years instead of decades.

He makes tough choices, pulls underperformers without worrying about hurting confidence. He fires coaches who don't perform. And these aren't after multiple try situations.

He literally says you aren't going to be successful if you rub kids on the back and it's OK.

He'd probably punch someone if they said, "if you remember the 80s..."

Someone should have told him he,'d never win a championship that way.

That's what we need at UofO

I know I've gotten clowned for expressing dislike towards priorization of easier games against G6 and FCS opponents, but this is an actual issue, especially since the 24-team CFP will become a reality sooner than later.

Reading some tweets I discovered that the scheduling requirement the SEC's Greg Sankey wanted will indeed be part of the playoff, but there's a problem, some P4 teams barely have any fellow Power programs scheduled for the future, among those being our Ducks.

The ONLY P4 opponent we have so far in Texas Tech in 2033, which means we have to search for P4 opponents through 2032 to meet the requirement, but there's another roadblock...

The reason on why we don't have any P4 opponent scheduled until TTU's visit to Eugene is because we scheduled games against Oregon State while prioritizing 7 home games, which I do very much appreciate to keep the rivalry alive, but since we decided to travel to Reser Stadium in certain years, we can't schedule a Power opponent unless a huge change happens, and it's all a mess.

2027's schedule change would a bit easier since there's no OrSU in that year and all games are at home, so I'm sure one of Western Kentucky, Coastal Carolina or Eastern Washington will get postponed or canned.

But how will we alter our schedules afterwards?

I don’t want to hear anyone booing him at the game — that pissed me off so much last week. Yes, Lanning needed to take him out sooner, but making the kid feel like the fans think he sucks? That’s not fair. I guarantee he was beating himself up more than anyone else. He had a shitty game, but this was also heavily a product of our OC’s calls. His options to pass to were so limited. Keep in mind that this is the guy who saved our asses against USC and a lot of fans were wanting Raiola to be the new starter over Dante.

I don’t want the poor kid to be nervous or anxious due to fans being obnoxious. Can we just agree to cheer him on loudly and give him back some confidence?
