No mentions for the forth unanimous Duck AP All-American?

26 CFB luminaries for 2026 include Dante Moore and ... Makhi? https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/1123264/college-footballs-26-most-important-people-in-2026?ueid=66c3ca35924fb3254520a3f8fe2aa9ce&utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=SB%20Nation%20Daily%20

Pretty much any Duck coach from Brooks on had coached the 2019 team instead of Mario, they would have won a championship and both Herbert and Dye would be on the Mount.

Thank you. Given practices are basically closed forever, I am hoping to give fans something a little deeper about the team during camp abd later the season. I will still have plenty of premium articles, but I think fans deserve something "free" that gives them insights without violating our trust with the staff and media department.

Here is my story following practice today. Three practices into fall camp, Oregon is balancing creativity with execution around Dante Moore, a deep group of playmakers and competition everywhere. “It’s a meritocracy. You’ve got to go out and earn it.” https://www.ducksportscentral.com/2026/08/drew-mehringer-its-meritocracy-youve.html

That is a damn good article Scott...a great blend of new information, their story, and quotes to pull it all together. THANK YOU.

Anyone think Blount has a sluggers chance to make the Mt?

Pretty tough! These having not been mentioned so far is wild: Van Brocklin, Fouts, Miller, Musgrave, Royce, DeForest, Bobby Moore, Wheaton. Royce is actually our all time rusher and total TDs leader, talk about under the radar.

Mel Renfro was a phenomenal. Haloti, Marcus, & Joey or DeAnthony (Joey's game against Colorado in Fiesta) would round out my top 4.

Pretty sure Jerry Allen has an opinion something is going to happen on this play.

I think you can throw Bryce in the Roosevelt slot. Hometown kid that overcame adversity of a walk on to the NFL Draft. He was the heart of the Duck D last year. He wasn't the best LB Ducks have had but as a total pkg on and off the field, he meant so much to that team

I would love for USC to become a rival. They have played some dirty pool in the conf realignment. Their shenanigans trying to crush Oregon in smokey back room deals is disgusting. I just don't see them as a rivalry game at this point. Trojan has spent the better part of 2 decades whining about Oregon. And Duck fans have spent the the time laughing at Trojan. The B1G should stoke the flames and schedule them every year late. Until then, for me, it falls short of a rivalry

Defensive Coordinator Chris Hampton breaks down fall camp following the second practice. Plus, Dylan Raiola and Teitum Tuioti sit down with Joey Mac in the studio.

Yeah, BABY!

College football archenemies for every power-conference team - ESPN ESPN pegged USC as Oregon's archnemesis, which personally feels way off the mark. But their pick for UW? Chef's kiss.

A quick Friday graphic. Interesting to think about how preserving some long standing rivalries hasn't remotely popped up.

Give it up for Malik Benson! AP NewsFernando Mendoza isn't only Raiders rookie to watch in tr...As the Raiders prepare for their season, the vast majority of media and fan focus remains on quarterback Fernando Mendoza.

Terrific post, Gat, thank you. Washington is public enemy No. 1. Oregon State is a baseball rival but does not have the money to assemble the talent to compete against Oregon in other sports. Today's mega conferences without divisions make it difficult to play Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, etc., enough to create a true rivalry. In the Big Ten, the Oregon football team misses eight conference members every season. And it's football that delivers rivalries. Playing Ohio State twice in 2024 and Indiana twice last season was the exception and not the rule. (One game would have been enough 🤬) The Big Ten has been around for a long time, as evidenced by all of the trophy games in football. But many of these trophy games are no longer annual events. Teams no longer battle to send the top team to one of the precious few bowl games. Have a successful season in today's SEC or the B1G, and you're one of three to five teams playing for a title. Even in a more regional conference like the SEC, 16 teams have made a difference. Texas A&M joined the SEC in 2012; Georgia has yet to play a game in College Station. With mega conferences, NIL, unregulated free agency, and conferences extending coast to coast, college football is very different from when I grew up watching the one game broadcast on Saturday while anxiously awaiting the New Year's Day football four-game bonanza. The economics of football changed dramatically when the NCAA lost its broadcast monopoly, compounded by SEC commissioner Roy Kramer, who convinced the other conferences that college football needed one true champion. Capitalism and NFL-Lite happened. I miss a lot about the 'good old days,' but I do not want to go back to watching one college game on the weekend. Best of luck to the Gators and Coach Sumrall.

Great thread! In the new world order as it stands today UW/USC/UCLA should be our conference rivals (imo) that we play every year, throw in Beavis for now. This is assuming a stable landscape, that doesn’t exist imo. If we keep beating Beavis by 30+ every year (and we will imo), there’s a real chance that game goes away on an annual basis. I personally don’t think any other B1G will have the time needed to elevate to a true rival…too many to pick from and the history just isn’t there imo. I’m sure we will hate tOSU etc eventually if nothing changed with alignment. But how do you pick between tOSU, Michigan, PSU? I don’t think any of them, will ever think of us as a rival, let’s not do the one sided rival thing 😆 The rub, I think there will still be a massive realignment before we become full share members of the B1G. In a super league nothing really would differentiate tOSU from Alabama as far as rivals are concerned. I don’t think we will have the decades needed to make any traditional B1G members into true rivals.

That guy was special. He was just the heart and soul of the defense. He contrasted with Herbert's leadership style in such a way that they complimented each other.

I will play…lol Haloti is our top defensive player, but throwing out a few other defensive players names off the top of my head. Kayvon Thibideaux…Noah Sewell…Patrick Chung…Dave Wilcox…Kiko Alonso (just enjoyed watching him play), and Troy Dye…in no particular order.

Well the forecasters were right. The wind started changing directions yesterday in Eugene. The nearest Paku sensor to my place now says 52... But check this out(insert profanity here). How many fires?

Oregon Practice Clip Fuels Hype Around Dante Moore-Evan Stewart ConnectionThe connection between Oregon quarterback Dante Moore and wide receiver Evan Stewart is highly anticipated, after Stewart missed the entire 2025 season with an injury.
