Here's a few good recaps from the opener.  

Duck Tape: Film Review of Oregon vs. Montana State: https://www.addictedtoquack.com/football/52666/duck-tape-film-review-of-oregon-vs-montana-state
One good point is that the game plan wasn't really that different from last years opener. The Ducks just played better in so many ways. They reminded me of some of Saban's best Bama teams in that their want a bunch of aggressive 50 yard throws or trick plays. 

Oregon has the nation’s best blocking receiver: https://www.oregonlive.com/ducks/2025/09/oregon-has-the-nations-best-blocking-receiver-and-dakorien-moores-just-getting-started.html
Dakorien led the nation for the best blocking receiver. I failed to mention how good he and the other Ducks were blocking to lead to big plays after the catch. 

I can't say I was rooting for them exactly, but it's a good thing for the conference that Ohio State won. 

Florida State beating Alabama was a big surprise. Alabama is still getting the talent. There's already calls to get rid of Kalen. That's why DL knows he has it good at Oregon. That's the kind of pressure you get from trying to follow up Saban. 

I still can't believe Bill Belichick is coaching in college and a second tier team for that matter. Can't say I feal bad for his disastrous start to the year. Who would've thought the guy that was lauded as the best coach of all time is getting it handed to him in college now? 

The Ducks next few opponents look weaker that we might have expected before the season started. The Ducks will probably be favored by several touchdowns every week. Like everyone keeps saying we may not know how truly good the team is until we face Penn State. 

Moving forward to Saturday and Oklahoma State.... Go Ducks!!!
