Oregon Fan Really, Really Didn't Like The Ducks Wearing Pink

Oregon Coach Sorry For Calling Out Mike Leach's "Low-Class Bullshit"
Washington State quarterback Connor Halliday set the FBS record for most pass attempts in a game on Saturday in a blowout loss to Oregon.

The BCS Standings Are Out
Despite Oregon being No. 2 in both the Harris and Coaches Polls (and the AP poll), the computers give the slimmest of edges to Florida State. That puts the Seminoles in pole position for the BCS Championship, but winning out probably won't be enough....

Check Out Oregon's Pink Uniform Schemes
The Oregon Ducks steamrolled Washington State 62-38 Saturday night, and they looked aesthetically pleasing doing it, donning pink accessories for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It must be fun to play on a program with an infinite uniform budget. Even coach Mark Helfrich wore a pink polo....

Does this count as bulletin board material?...

Oregon's New “Football Performance Center” Is A Decadent Monstrosity
The University of Oregon just opened a brand new $68 million, 145,000-square foot football facility that would make Ozymandias—but not Phil Knight—blush. It is completely bananas. Let's take a look at some pictures....

The NCAA Has Wagged Its Finger At Oregon And Chip Kelly
The NCAA's committee on infractions has spoken: Because of payments made to a recruiting service run by a guy who steered a prospect toward the Oregon football program, the Ducks have been hit with three years' probation and other penalties, most of which they had already imposed on themselves.

Arsalan Kazemi, Oregon's Iranian-Born Glue Guy, Was Subjected To A Whole Lot Of Racism In His Time As A Student-Athlete
Arsalan Kazemi was Oregon's hustling forward and best rebounder this season, averaging nearly a double-double and shooting almost 60%. He was also, according to USA Today, "the first Iranian to recieve a scholarship to play Division I basketball," and boy, did he hear about it. ...

College Pitcher Gets Ball Stuck In Glove On Comebacker, Throws Entire Glove To First
Quick thinking from Oregon's Jeff Gold to hurl the entire package when he realized the ball was stuck in the webbing of his mitt. But credit should also go to first baseman Ryon Healy, who was able to spot and corral the ball as it came loose from the glove in mid-air....

An Oregon Player Faked An Injury During The Fiesta Bowl So That His Teammate Could Get Into His First And Last Bowl Game
According to The Oregonian's John Canzano, last week's Fiesta Bowl featured a real-life Rudy moment.

<em>Newsday</em>, Like Twitter Users, Simply Cannot Tell Brian Kelly And Chip Kelly Apart
Two college football coaches, both named Kelly. Chip has just completed a marvelous season marred only by the fact that his Oregon Ducks did not get to compete for a national championship and stand to finish third or perhaps second in the final polls. Brian has one of the two teams playing for the n...

Chip Kelly Is Reportedly The Next Head Coach Of The Cleveland Browns
We mentioned Thursday night that we're big fans of Chip Kelly and the team he built at Oregon in his four years as head coach. We also mentioned that the Fiesta Bowl—which Oregon won, 35-17, over Kansas State—would probably be Kelly's Ducks' last hurrah....
