For years and years, Oregon has dominated the college football fashion discussion. With seemingly a new jersey for every game on the schedule, the Ducks’ partnership with nearby Nike has certainly garnered it extra attention off the field beyond all that on-field success under Chip Kelly. Now, however, it looks as if the Arizona Wildcats are poised to give Oregon a run for its money in the garish football uniforms department. Over the weekend, a company called BadAss Masks tweeted out some pictures of the new facemask it’s working on for Arizona, and the design is pretty unique. The mask has a letter A as a part of the cage, itself, just so no opponent forgets who they are playing. Check out the Wildcats’ new facemask in the image below.

If the blistering physical pace didn't destroy him, the mental demands of flashing play placards every 12 seconds amid crisply orchestrated drills would fry his Toby Keith-addled brain.   Hard to imagine why some Duck fans cling to one tired question like beer suds to a carelessly-washed glass: "Why can't the Ducks recruit any big, dominating, SEC-style offensive linemen?"     The notion should have died when Max Ungar, Geoff Schwartz and Adam Synder started making good money in the NFL. It should have been buried when Kyle Long went to the Bears in the second round of this year's draft. And it should hav...

The sound of loud music pumping through the speakers at the Eagles' practice facility will be silenced now that the team has completed its final minicamp under new coach Chip Kelly. From practices that sound like hip-hop concerts to everything else, Kelly has invigorated the team with new ideas and a unique system. The former offensive mastermind at Oregon has enjoyed his first spring as an NFL head coach. But he's got a long way to go to turn this team around after a 4-12 season. ''There's a ton of work,'' Kelly said Thursday. ''There's work every day no matter what. You're never done and you've never arrived so there's always something to do.''

There was no Willie Lyles, there was no NFL flirtation, and there was more quick-witted humor than quick-witted piercings for journalists. A few years ago, we thought Kelly’s destiny would be that of the man who elevated Oregon football and punctuated the Oregon brand to previously undreamt heights. It made sense – a simple, sterling legacy for the straight-shooting coach who talked fast and had an offense that ran even faster. But things changed very quickly for Kelly in Eugene. First there was the Chip-Flop, a momentous night in January 2012 when Kelly accepted, then turned down the Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coaching job. In the midst of that, the Lyles scandal exploded, and Kelly lost friends in the media and became more controlling of the program. No practices open to the media. No injury reports. No real insight into Kelly’s football team or state of mind. Kelly’s 2013 NFL merry-go-round sm...

As coach Kelly has finally departed let the above video be a testament to a 2012 season to remember. The video was released yesterday and is surely something that provoked recruits take some time to think after visiting Eugene. Enjoy as surely I was in need of satisfying my football-watching fix.

Now, all eyes will be on him at the start of the NFL’s regular season to see if that same style of offense can work at the professional level. Former Eagles quarterback Ron Jaworski does not see that happening. “It’s going to be interesting to see if this style of offense projects to the NFL,” Jaws told Harry Mayes and Nick Kayal on 97.5 The Fanatic earlier this week, via PhillyMag.com. “I’m going to say no. I just don’t see NFL passing concepts in this offense. It’s a movement offense by the quarterback, off the run-action, off the read-action. A lot of short, quick passes, dart routes, bubble screens. Very few plays down the field with NFL passing concepts.” A lot of people feel that Kelly’s offense could make some noise at the NFL level, especially since he has arguably the most athletic quarterback in the league at his disposal in Michael V...

Over the last three seasons, Kelly’s offense at Oregon averaged 49.6, 46.1 and 47.0 points per game and in every season with the Ducks he had a top 10 offense. With some fans hoping this high scoring offense will come to the Philadelphia Eagles, one former player does not think that type of offense will work in the NFL. Former Eagles quarterback and current ESPN analysts, Ron Jaworski spoke about Kelly’s offense during an interview with 97.5 the fanatic. “It’s going to be interesting to see if this style of offense projects to the NFL,â€* Jaworski said, via Phillymag.com. “I’m going to say no.â€* Jaworski believes that Kelly will not be able to exploit NFL defenses in the same way he did while at Oregon. â Wed, 22 May 2013 12:38:28 -0400 http://network.yardbarker.com/college_football/article_external/ron_jaworski_chip_kellys_oregon_offense_wont_work_in_the_nfl/13671439 http://network.yardbarker.com/college_football/article_external/ron_jaworski_chip_kellys_oregon_offense_wont_work_in_the_nfl/13671439 Jaws questions Kelly's offense http://www.yardbarker.com/college_football/articles/ron_jaworski_chip_kellys_oregon_offense_wont_work_in_the_nfl/13671439 http://www.yardbarker.com/media/1/6/16d7da264f54b0115de3f4c9c1396022cb498f16/mini/ch.jpg There's a certain civility to the Civil War baseball rivalry between Oregon and Oregon State. Since the Ducks brought back baseball in 2009, the rivalry with the Beavers has been growing. But this season both teams are nationally ranked in the top 10 and sit 1-2 in the Pac-12 standings. The outcome of this weekend's Civil War series between the two teams could lead to the league championship and have postseason implications. Yet there's no trash talk between the Beavers and the Ducks. Oregon coach George Horton and Oregon State coach Pat Casey agree: This rivalry is really about respect.

According to the listing: This car is currently for display purposes only as it currently does not operate and it has not been driven on roads.  The item will need to be picked up from the University of Oregon athletic department. It’s entirely plausible that the buyer is going to sink some more money to get this bad boy up and running and use it to drive to football games in Eugene next year.  The football seat covers with the Nike logo are fantastic and so is the vanity license plate that says “QB” on it.  Worst comes to worst if you can’t fix it up to drive it, it will make for an awesome display outside your house.

Nearly 20 years ago, Phil Knight had a vision for Oregon football, and his money, their effort, and a little good fortune was all they needed to turn that vision into a reality for a program in the infantile stages of a historic resurrection.  Yet, no one could’ve thought that that money, that effort, and that good fortune would’ve put Oregon amongst the elite athletic departments in all the college game … and “haters” aren’t down. Riding the wave of a half-decade’s worth of “elite” football status, the Ducks have not-so-quietly put themselves squarely in the middle of the NCAA’s cream of the crop.  The last calendar year has included many success stories, including: A #2 ranking in football A run to the “Sweet 16” for men’s hoops A women’s cross country national championship A trip to Tue, 14 May 2013 08:21:36 -0400 http://network.yardbarker.com/college_football/article_external/if_you_dont_like_the_oregon_ducks_this_is_not_your_time/13612775 http://network.yardbarker.com/college_football/article_external/if_you_dont_like_the_oregon_ducks_this_is_not_your_time/13612775 If You Don’t Like The Oregon Ducks, This Is Not Your Time http://www.yardbarker.com/college_football/articles/if_you_dont_like_the_oregon_ducks_this_is_not_your_time/13612775 http://www.yardbarker.com/images/yb_logo_square_grey.png Unless you have been under a rock for the last four months, you have probably the heard the song "Thrift Shop" by Seattle-based rapper Macklemore.

Until then, everything is off the record, and the Athletic Department can't comment publicly.  The Ducks will lose one or two scholarships for three years, have some restrictions on recruiting and be placed on probation for five years. They'll avoid the hammer, penalties like a bowl ban, rescinded titles or vacated wins. Those "looming sanctions" will no longer loom so ominously. Fans of other schools around the PAC-12 will be moaning that the Ducks got a slap on the wrist, but the ruling feels appropriate and reasonable. The investigation took so long that UO deserves some credit for time served.
