Oregon goes for it on fourth-and-1 at midfield and Thomas fumbles the snap.

Which special Oregon jersey performance was the worst? Lewis & Clark in loss to WSU? Those Cal things in the loss to UW? The Duck jerseys in loss to Colorado? This thing?

Considering the level of talent on the field, this is the worst Oregon offensive game I've seen in my career.

Can you imagine how much worse this half would have been had Dan answered that question about USC last week?

I was 23 when I started covering Altman. 37 now. That’s a mind trip. Nothing I’ve done has been more fun than those March runs.

My final story from a shocking day at Oregon. After 16 years, Dana Altman is done. lookouteugene-springfield.com/story/ducks/...

Dana Altman's final play at Oregon was knowing when to walk away
The longtime Oregon coach built his career on hard work and accountability. In deciding to retire, he found himself practicing what he'd preached.

Went to the Timbers game last night and came away really impressed with what Janssen opens up for Velde. www.i-5corridor.com/p/portland-i...

Portland is finding a better way to use Kristoffer Velde
With fewer responsibilities and more freedom on the left, Portland’s designated player is beginning to look like the attacker the Timbers thought they signed.

The Sunday Duck Report: A messy and revealing first sample
Boise State exposed plenty for the Ducks to clean up, but a veteran Oregon team also showed the kind of response Dan Lanning has spent all offseason talking about.

I'll never coach a football game. I'll never be that rich. I'll never have that level of nicotine addiction. But in an effort to understand Dan Lanning better before his fifth season, I did one thing the coach has done: I drove 820 miles in his shoes. lookouteugene-springfield.com/story/ducks/...

On the road, in search of Dan Lanning — for 820 miles
Fifteen years after the Oregon coach drove from Missouri to Pittsburgh chasing a chance in college football, Tyson Alger retraced the route to better understand Lanning — and why he went.

The last Timbers coach would tell us all the time that MLS is a league decided by DPs. The irony is that Portland's are finally playing like it.

Oregon is no stranger to being a preseason top-5. But this? This is different. lookouteugene-springfield.com/story/ducks/...
lookouteugene-springfield.com
Oregon is No. 2 in the preseason AP poll. Here’s what makes these Ducks different.
The Ducks have opened in the top five plenty of times before. But the 2026 team brings back a defense that gives this title contender a different look.

“I was on calls with Division I lacrosse coaches that I’ve been dreaming to talk to, and I felt myself not interested. I had to tell them, like, ‘I don’t want to play college lacrosse. I want to play football.’” On Gage Hurych, who really wants this. lookouteugene-springfield.com/story/ducks/...

Ducks’ likely next kicker had once dreamed of college lacrosse. Then things took a turn.
The former West Linn multisport standout had five Division I lacrosse offers. Now he’s in line to replace Atticus Sappington.

While Oregon stayed mostly in-house this offseason when it came to rebuilding the offensive line, it's already seeing gains from a longtime Beaver in his 60s who came back down the road. lookouteugene-springfield.com/story/ducks/...

Oregon’s big addition to the offensive line? A longtime Beaver in his 60s.
The Ducks didn’t raid the transfer portal to rebuild its offensive line this year. But it did find a key addition in Mike Cavanaugh, who returns to Eugene for a second stint after a year at Oregon Sta...
