Oregon Ducks gear sales.... I see you Cali

I think I heard almost 25% of the freshman class at Oregon is made up of Cali students.

Yeah w/out Cali kids there would be no success at Oregon. 100%

Yup 35% of your football team are cali kids

Weird because Mariota was from Hawaii and everything I have been reading from everyone else is that he was Oregon's whole team last year.

What the hell is everyone in Washington buying?


















In before 'Petersen is the next James' or Petersen can actually win at this level.

Interesting read from Stanford RB Remound Wright III

[SUBuddha]

Oh and it looks like Stanford, UW and UCLA are front runners for this commit this week. Newest SAT scores came out recently, could be good or bad for Stanford.

He was your best player in school history. No one said he was your whole team because you had a lot of talent but when the best player in your programs history the heisman winner and he's the QB , leaves and you couldn't get over the hump with him running the show you're most likely going to have a hard time going farther without him. Not saying it's impossible but not as likely. More likely the PAC is nipping at your heals.

Oregon won the conference with out him. Oregon made the NC game without him. And when they did the game was actually closer. Maybe Oregon has another Heisman winner. maybe instead of the QB its a RB, they been close before. maybe the defense starts turning the corner. all and any of these things is possible.

 

[WizardHawk]

Right, the only thing that's not possible to you is the team takes a step back.

There is going to be no room for error this year in the PAC in the top half of the conf once OOC is over. It's going to be brutal this season. And it's going to be glorious to watch the competition. Lots of great football to look forward to this year.

LOL. You made it once before him in how many years? Youve won a couple Rose Bowls in how many years? teams get on a roll but it doesn't last forever.
So yeah any of those things are possible but it's more probable that you had your shot and you never were quite good enough. Good enough to win your conference but thats it.
I was actually pulling for you guys against Ohio State but they just pulled your pants down on national television. You'd think that would bring some of you Ducks back to reality.

Reality is Oregon has been playing at this level for a while with 3 different head coaches and a slew of different players. It wasnt just 1 guy and 1 team. Oregon did get embarrassed by Ohio State but they did the same to the reigning champ FSU. For Oregon reality is until it doesn't happen, the fans will believe its still possible.

Your style has produced more points and you've won a lot of regular season games but in the end you're teams have not been able to stop the other team from scoring more than they do in national Championship games and had a worse winning percentage than USC in BCS games. Is that the level you're talking about? Reality is it hasn't happened.

 

[UtahUte]

HAHAH Dennis Erickson just took two players from Florida. They played at the same school and they had offers from 15 other schools from the south. He's selling and they're buying. what ever works bitches.

Oregon has also won a lot of bowl games recently too.

 

[socaljim242]

Oregon has also won a lot of bowl games recently too.

Last 10 years Oregon is 5-5 in the last game they played (bowls and NC).

 

[Olyduck]

Last 10 years Oregon is 5-5 in the last game they played (bowls and NC).

6-5. You cant ignore the Rose Bowl win over reigning NC and ACC champs Florida State just because it wasnt the last game of the season. 3-3 in BCS/NC games.
Arizona went 3-3 and 4 no bowls in last 10 years Fiesta bowl loss
Arizona State 3-4 and 3 no bowls in last 10 years No BCS bowls
Cal 4-2 and 4 no bowls in last 10 years No BCS bowls
Colorado 0-2 8 no bowls in last 10 years no BCS bowls
Oregon State 4-2 and 4 no bowls in last 10 years No BCS bowls.
Stanofrd 3-3 and 4 no bowls in last 10 years. 2-2 in BCS bowls.
UCLA 4-4 and 2 no bowls in last 10 years. No BCS bowls
USC is 6-2 and 2 no bowls in 10 years. 3-1 in BCS bowls
Utah 7-1 and 2 no bowls in last 10 years. Sugar bowl win.
Washington 2-3 and 5 no bowls in last 10 years. No BCS bowls
WSU 0-1 and 9 no bowls in last 10 years. No BCS bowls.
So Oregon has been to more bowls than any other team in the last 10 years. has more bowl wins than 10 other teams in last 10 years. has more BCS/NC appearances than any other team in the last 10 years.

Oregon State 4-2 and 4 no bowls in last 10 years No BCS bowls.
Stanofrd 3-3 and 4 no bowls in last 10 years. 2-2 in BCS bowls.
UCLA 4-4 and 2 no bowls in last 10 years. No BCS bowls
USC is 6-2 and 2 no bowls in 10 years. 3-1 in BCS bowls
Utah 7-1 and 2 no bowls in last 10 years. Sugar bowl win.
Washington 2-3 and 5 no bowls in last 10 years. No BCS bowls
WSU 0-1 and 9 no bowls in last 10 years. No BCS bowls.
So Oregon has been to more bowls than any other team in the last 10 years. has more bowl wins than 10 other teams in last 10 years. has more BCS/NC appearances than any other team in the last 10 years.

So in the last ten years USC has a much better BCS bowl percentage , much better bowl percentage and has an AP National Championship , more Rose Bowl victories. All that with years of sanctions to deal with. Great job of taking advantage.
