That is up to the individual. I don’t like anything about Husky Stadium. I’ve never gone in Autzen but am not a fan of Eugene. And of course I love Martin Stadium, even though I despise the name. I’m sure Ducks will say they Autzen and obviously some guy from Alaska who hasn’t gone to a game since the renovation likes Husky Stadium.

As a condition of his parole, AlaskaFag can't leave the state.

The lower 48 rejoices.

Will the Quack Attack win a national championship? Hell yes. On a videogame system.

No, unless Nike pays off the SEC to take a dive.

It's hard to beat the waterfront view of Husky Stadium, but it looks like they are short on nearby parking spaces. Do they have shuttles to take people back-and-forth from more distant parking areas?

And what is with the winding drive to the Ducks' field? Is there parking beneath the stadium?
Over the years Oregon basically systematically eliminated parking for facilities. Practice fields, indoor, baseball, soccer. neighboring businesses are where people tailgate. a lot of people use the city transit or park over on campus where you take a footbridge over the Willamette river through some woods and to the staidum. others walk from downtown.

Oregon is outrecruiting the California schools...has more to do with the concentration of talent in the Southeastern US.
Especially those jug butted d-line guys. They've got tons of those it seems.

Oregon has gotten bigger on the line, but they are going to need at least 2 more elite classes to be at an SEC-level for depth on the lines.

IMO the teams that win the recruiting battles for DTs and DEs are the potential natty winners year in and year out. Seems like there is a lot of talent at the other positions. Seems to be more of a scarcity for those.

Here in Texas it sure seems like we are developing a lot of QBs, RBs, WRs and DBs. Not so much on the line of scrimmage...either side. I blame 7 on 7 but that's just me.

Oregon lost a national Championship game with a clock draining winning field goal by Auburn with a controversial call that impacted field position and the game without having top 10 classes.
that was 2010
the 5 classes into that were ranked 50, 14, 34, 30, 12

can they and will they are 2 different things. It will not surprise me to see them play for another. will they win tbd

It'll probably come down to you guys and Oklahoma for that final spot.

There may be enough fall-off at Oregon this year to keep them from being in position to jockey for that 4th slot. However, they should be back in the thick of things in 2021 & 2022.

I don't know if Oklahoma can get back in the mix without an experienced QB, but Lincoln Riley seems to be something of a miracle worker in that respect.

I think the teams most likely to be in the struggle for the 4th spot are Penn St., Notre Dame & Georgia.

Defense will never be the determining factor. If Oregon is going to win a NC they will need to again have a Heisman caliber QB. No team is going to go undefeated in the Pac 12 with a game manager. The Huskies went to the playoff when Jake Browning was a viable NCAA QB.

Okay, the circular, around-the-mountain type drive, then.

You know that people don't drive to their seats, right? There aren't 8 spiral roads at the old Joe Robbie.

Jake Browning was a turd.
